bench: coolant temperature calibration helper

The UAPI raw->Celsius formula is an explicitly unverified best guess and every absolute coolant threshold inherits it. temp_calibrate.py records reference points (measured temperature paired with averaged raw ADC readings) and least-squares fits the real line per sensor, printing it against the guess with a difference table. Modes: watch / point / fit.

+"""Coolant temperature calibration helper (runs on Windows, reads the
+board over ssh).
+
+The raw->Celsius conversion in UAPI.md (C = raw * -0.09653 + 94) is an
+unverified best guess. This tool collects reference points - a measured
+real temperature paired with the machine's raw ADC readings - and fits
+the actual line for THIS machine.
+
+Usage:
+  temp_calibrate.py watch                 live raw + current-formula C
+  temp_calibrate.py point <measured_C>    record a calibration point
+  temp_calibrate.py fit                   fit and print the calibration
+
+Points accumulate in temp_calibration.json next to this script. Take at
+least two points as far apart in temperature as practical (e.g. cold
+machine in the morning, and warm after a fan-off soak with the flow
+heater on).
