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.

HaEntity describes an entity for device-based discovery, throttles its
state (SEN-14) and reports availability (SEN-15); HaSensor is the
`sensor` type. HaDevice publishes discovery, availability and states
after each connect and after HA's birth message, provides the last
will and removes itself from HA. Unit tests with a fake MQTT client.

MqttClient is the interface the HA layer will use; MosquittoClient
implements it with one std::thread for DNS, connect, network loop and
reconnect with backoff (D45, amends D42: mosquitto_loop_start() blocks
the caller on DNS and stops silently on TLS/protocol errors).
tst_mqtt tests it against a local mosquitto: messages, retained
messages, first connect and reconnect, last will, login.

cmake/Mosquitto.cmake finds it through pkg-config; with
FRAMEASSISTANT_SHIP_MOSQUITTO=ON (all package presets) it installs
lib/libmosquitto.so.1 and Debian's copyright file and excludes the
library from the Qt bundler (D35). The build containers get
libmosquitto-dev, the test container the mosquitto broker.

DSH-1 ended with a negative result: the Frame's system WebEngine can't be
loaded, and bundling our own failed (no sandbox, ICU resources, Vulkan
abort, empty page). Reverts the tab (60deb43), the container packages
(0676998) and the bundler's WebEngine support (b823ff3, e2cfa8e), and
updates the docs.

A second dashboard surface shows a WebEngineView at homeassistant.url, or
a hint when none is set. HaWebUi (QML singleton owned by Dashboard) holds
the URL and a persistent WebEngine profile under
~/.local/share/frameassistant/webengine so the HA login survives restarts.
QtWebEngineQuick::initialize() runs in main() before the app object (D39).

Config parses and validates the JSON settings (D34): required device name
and broker host, defaults, type checks, device id from ha_unique_id or
derived from the name (D31), warnings for unknown keys and for a password
in a file others can read. Dashboard::prepare() loads it in overlay and
desktop mode; --config selects another file (D22). New static library
frameassistant_lib for app logic; tst_config covers it.

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).

Template stripped to the overlay platform (examples, demo UI and Frame
test package removed), renamed to FrameAssistant, and working rules for
the project recorded in CLAUDE.md.
