ScottW514 c425822b82 docs, acceptance: the cameras as users meet them, and 8 MP at full resolution
docs/VIDEO.md is the user-facing camera guide: what the endpoints return, what
the sensors can do that ForgeFIRM does not send and why, the privacy gate, and
the state of 8 MP support.

The 8 MP (OV8856) capture path now reaches the sensor's full 3264x2448 frame.
Its stock RAW10 full-resolution mode runs the link at 1.44 Gbps/lane and the
i.MX6 CSI-2 D-PHY stops at 1 Gbps; the BSP adds a RAW8 mode that carries the
same frame at half the rate, so an HD machine is no longer limited to the
binned quarter-pixel mode. kas/README.md carries the reasoning, the register
deltas and the factory configuration to fall back to if the receiver will not
lock at 720 Mbps/lane.

Acceptance: camera.sensor-profile expects the new OV8856 geometry, the camera
covers map names src/camhealth.* (the src/cam.* glob does not match it, so the
lint would have gone quiet on an uncovered file at the next pin bump), and a
new auto test camera.frame-health asserts a burst of captures with no frames
the capture queue flagged errored - a real signal about the camera ribbon even
though those frames never reach a client.

forgetest - the ForgeFIRM release acceptance tool

The daemon behind http://<machine>:8090/ on the dev image: runs the acceptance catalog against the machine, keeps the append-only result log, decides which results still apply to the image that is running, exports the release artifact scripts/release.sh gates on, and serves the bench diagnostics page. The contract - catalog, campaigns, fingerprints, inheritance, the gate, the coverage rule - is docs/ACCEPTANCE.md.

Run the host tests

cd forgetest
python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -v

Run the daemon on a workstation (against a mock or a manifest file)

FORGETEST_DATA=/tmp/ft FORGETEST_MANIFEST=../tree-manifest.json \
FORGECTRL_URL=http://<machine>:8080 python3 -m forgetest --port 8090

scripts/manifest-from-tree.py produces tree-manifest.json from the recipe pins; the coverage lint is python3 -m forgetest.coverage --manifest ....

Environment

Adding a test

Register it in the subsystem module under forgetest/suite/ with @test(...): id subsystem.name, kind, hardware, covers, requires, always, steps. The body gets a Context (log, check, fail, prompt, confirm, instruct, sleep, evidence, forgectrl, sysfs, grbl, takeover). Return normally for PASS, raise runner.Failed for FAIL. Then run the unit tests and the coverage lint.
