eric 4485ec3814 ci(e2e): on-demand Meshtasticator e2e job for the docker-enabled runner
Adds .gitea/workflows/meshtasticator-e2e.yaml (workflow_dispatch until
validated green, pull_request trigger commented out): builds the pinned
Hermes contract env like release.yaml, installs the plugin with deps,
checks out Meshtasticator at a pinned commit, installs the simulator's
own (conflicting-version) requirements in an isolated venv, then runs
scripts/meshtasticator_e2e/run_e2e.sh --mode docker.

Supporting changes:
- run_e2e.sh: SIM_VENV support; automatic localhost->daemon TCP forwards
  (scripts/meshtasticator_e2e/tcp_forward.py) when DOCKER_HOST is a tcp://
  daemon, because Meshtasticator hardcodes localhost for its node control
  connections; node-boot settle wait; fixed docker cleanup (container
  'Meshtastic', volume 'Meshtasticator').
- e2e tests: connect via a module-long event loop in a background thread
  (adapter requires a running loop for watchdog + inbound dispatch, so
  per-call asyncio.run was wrong) with retry while the node TCP API boots.
- README: sim-venv guidance, remote-daemon forwarding, CI section.

Docker access follows the deployment examples in
eric/actions-docker (docker is available to runner jobs).

"""End-to-end tests: hermes-meshtastic adapter against live Meshtasticator nodes.
What these tests validate (the "radio-level" layer no contract test can):
* the adapter's real TCP/protobuf handshake against MeshtasticD (the actual
device software, not a mock) as run by the Meshtasticator interactive
simulator (https://meshtastic.org/docs/software/meshtasticator/),
* inbound text reception across the simulated LoRa mesh,
* outbound chunked sends arriving at another simulated node,
* the whole path: pubsub callback -> MessageEvent construction (real gateway
types) -> handle_message dispatch.
What they do NOT validate (out of scope even for Meshtasticator): true RF
(silicon-level LoRa, real propagation/interference, regulatory duty cycle).
Running
-------
1. On a Linux host (or a machine with Docker): clone meshtastic/meshtasticator
and boot the interactive simulator (see scripts/meshtasticator_e2e/).
2. Point the plugin's own contract venv at the booted nodes and run:
cd plugin && MESHTASTICATOR_E2E=1 E2E_PORTS=4404,4405 \
E2E_CHANNEL_INDEX=0 .venv-contract/bin/python -m pytest tests/e2e -q
Environment
-----------
MESHTASTICATOR_E2E = "1" enables these tests (required; without it the
module skips so ordinary unit/CI runs stay fast).
E2E_PORTS = comma-separated TCP API ports of the simulated nodes
(first = the node the adapter connects to, default 4404).
E2E_HOST = host where the simulator exposes the ports (default 127.0.0.1).
E2E_CHANNEL_INDEX = Meshtastic channel index the adapter listens/sends on
(default 0 = primary channel, matching a stock sim node).
NOTE: this module is an initial scaffold. Structural validation (imports,
fixtures, flow) passes, but a full green run requires a Linux/Docker host with
a MeshtasticD build — tracked as the remaining verification step.
