Dashboard creates the MQTT client and the HA device with the dummy
"Uptime" sensor (D41) in overlay and both desktop modes, connects in
started() and disconnects gracefully on aboutToQuit. The new platform
mode --desktop-novr behaves like --desktop for now (D22). The main tab
shows device, broker, connection state and last error (UI-1) through
the ConnectionStatus QML singleton.

prepare() runs once mode and app key are known, before engine, surfaces
and SteamVR; returning false ends exec() with exit code 1 (D21). The base
constructor takes the app's own QCommandLineOptions, parses them with its
own and exposes them via isOptionSet()/optionValue() (D38).
