ScottW514 f0c40e7d4f Name every machine after its own MAC address, and drop mDNS
One name for every machine was wrong: an operator with two of them on a
network had one forgefirm.local, and mDNS does not work on many networks
at all. The machine now calls itself forgefirm-<xxxx>, from the last four
hex digits of its WiFi MAC address, and sends that name with its DHCP
request, so a network with dynamic DNS publishes it and a router lists
the machine by name. The name is the same at every boot, two machines
take different names, and no serial number leaves the machine.

forgefirm-hostname (new): reads the wlan0 MAC address (eth0 on a machine
with no WiFi) at S38 in rcS, after udev has probed the network drivers
and before poky's hostname.sh reads the file and before the network
starts. The rootfs is read-only, so the name is written through a
bind-mounted copy under /run/forgefirm. A bounded wait covers a slow
probe. hostname:pn-base-files is "forgefirm": the name before S38, and
the fallback when no MAC address can be read.

avahi is deleted - the bbappend, the daemon configuration, the service
file, the image install and the distro block. The address is the way in
that works on every network, and the DHCP name covers the rest.

forgefirm-banner: the marker lines are gone. "# ForgeFIRM addresses" and
"# end" delimited the address block inside /etc/issue, and getty prints
every line of that file, so both markers were on the console. The script
now keeps the image's own text in a second copy under /run/forgefirm,
captured once per boot before the first write, and renders the whole
banner from it. The block is the addresses alone: no mDNS name.

forgefirm-image.bb: the ForgeFIRM mark, under the OpenGlow one the base
image carries, with the version on the mark's own last line,
right-justified to the mark's last column. The mark is written once and
rendered per reader, because /etc/issue is parsed by busybox getty (a
backslash or a percent sign starts an escape, so the art goes in with
every backslash doubled) while /etc/motd is written out as it is. Widths
are measured in columns, not bytes: the color sequences take no room on
the screen. /etc/issue.net stays unused - the machine tells a client that
has not logged in nothing.

Acceptance: commission.mdns-announce is replaced by
commission.machine-name, which checks the name against the MAC address,
the bind-mounted /etc/hostname, the DHCP client's hostname option, the
banner's addresses, and that no mDNS responder is on the image; it covers
nothing by design, like the test it replaces. forgectrl.auth gains the
own-name Host check and its refusal with a domain on it. image.health
checks the /etc/hostname mount and the version on the mark's last line in
both files. commission.ssh-until-reboot asserts there is no
pre-authentication banner. commission_dark's lens coverage widens to
src/lenshome.* so src/lenshome.h is covered; the lint is clean at 83
tests.

Pins: forgectrl 0.1.14 (9e5330f, the hostname certificate and the Host
rule), meta-openglow ced2af2 (the DHCP hostname option and the motd mark)
in the kas lock.

Proven on the bench reference, hot-deployed and rebooted (image
20260910000208 dev): hostname forgefirm-b00a from MAC 2c:6b:7d:0d:b0:0a,
live and in the bind-mounted file; the DHCP client running with
-x hostname:forgefirm-b00a; the console banner and the motd carrying both
marks with the version aligned to the mark's last column, no marker line
and no .local name; forgectrl regenerating its certificate for the new
name. Host tests: 357 forgetest unit tests, forgectrl clean under
-Werror, tls_test and sanitize_test.
