fix(meshtastic): keep LongFast MQTT on the right channel during radio sync - #1035
Conversation
… sync Partial updateChannelKeys pushes while RF channels stream in were wiping LongFast from channelNameToIndex, so public MQTT traffic fell back to slot 0 (e.g. OnTrail) when cycling radios. Merge topic→index across incremental syncs and debounce channel-key pushes.

radioTopicIndexByName to use an explicit snapshot-complete or radio-session
signal, clearing the map when the RF identity changes while preserving entries
during partial channel updates. Ensure stale topic names from the previous radio
session cannot be attributed to the replacement radio.
- Line 372: Update updateChannelKeys so radio PSK retention follows the existing
radioTopicIndexByName rules for partial updates, slot takeover, and full
replacement, preserving omitted private-channel PSKs in channelKeysByName and
allDecryptKeys when appropriate. Add a regression test using a non-default PSK
that sends an inbound packet after a partial update and verifies decryption
succeeds.

Clear radio topic→index/PSKs when radioSessionId changes, keep private channel keys across partial updateChannelKeys pushes, and cover debounce with a fake-timer unit test.
