The row of controls under the plot held four different control heights,
units as loose text beside the field they belonged to, and a quarter of
its width as a hole in the middle.  Between about 1100 and 1400 px it
came apart: the bandwidth cluster wrapped to two lines while the level
cluster stayed on one, so the two sat at heights that matched neither
each other nor anything else on the page.

Every control stays, in its order, with its name and its behaviour.
This is the styling and the layout.

A field is now one box -- name, value and unit inside a single border --
so a number cannot be read apart from the unit it is in.  Fields,
buttons, the peak-hold select and the contrast slider are one height,
border-box so a button's own border cannot add two pixels to it, and
2.4rem under a coarse pointer where a fingertip needs the room.  The
contrast readout holds a fixed, tabular slot, so the row no longer
twitches between 1.0 and 0.9.

The container wraps and a cluster does not: a cluster that will not fit
drops whole to the next line and starts it left-aligned.  The slack
goes to a spacer rather than to `space-between`, which is what opened
the hole.

Two things this turned up.  The select carries `status-input` for other
layouts' sake, which drew a box inside the field's box.  And the narrow
-screen rules lived in a media query earlier in the file than the rules
they override -- identical specificity, so the later one won and the
phone layout had been overflowing sideways rather than stacking.  The
narrow rules now sit directly after what they override.

The layout test measures the strip at three widths: one height across
every control, no overflow, inside the plot, and clusters either
sharing a line or each having one -- never one floating against the
middle of the other.

docs/Spectrum-Controls-Rework.md records what was wrong and what was
deliberately left alone: the two different Autos, the settings that do
not persist, the one-shot buttons, and Sweet-spot's silence while it
retunes the SDR.  Those are behaviour, and are for another day.

The bar explained itself in prose: "All bands visible by default" sat
between the chips and the next group, taking width the bar could not
spare and reading as a stray line of text. An "All" chip says the same
thing in a chip's width and gives the selection somewhere to be undone.

Band chips also came up dimmed at the very moment every band was on the
map -- an empty selection is no filter at all, so nothing is dimmed
until something is picked. The path toggles drop their "On"/"Off"
suffix, which cost most of a row and only repeated what their own
highlight already said; state moves to aria-pressed and the tooltip.

The rest is alignment. The rule dividing the buttons from the filters
is drawn on the button block's edge, and a centred block left it
floating as a stub beside a two-row bar; stacked, it lay down the left
of a block that sits underneath. The labels sat at their natural
widths, so each row's first control started somewhere different, and
the two pairs of phase buttons differed in width, so the groups after
them missed each other by four pixels. One gutter for every label, one
width for both pairs, and the search field moved last where it can take
the room the fixed-width groups leave.

The map layout test now covers the chips, the divider's height and the
rows' shared start.

sjg 88d04253ca [fix](trx-frontend-http): move the map's fullscreen and filter toggles into the bar
Fullscreen and Hide Filters floated in their own block over the map's
top-right corner, separate from the filter bar they sit beside.

Put them at the right-hand end of the bar, behind a separator. What made
this awkward before is that Hide Filters cannot live inside the thing it
hides, so the collapse now applies to the filters alone: the bar keeps its
two controls and shrinks to them at the map's right edge, leaving the whole
map visible and the way back one click away.

Fixes #38

sjg 08005c5c07 [feat](trx-frontend-http): lay the map filters out as a bar across the top
CI / test (push) Successful in 8m6s

CI / reuse (push) Successful in 3s
CI / lint (push) Successful in 2m15s
The filters were a 30rem column parked in the bottom-right corner, covering
a third of the map they filter. Lay them out horizontally instead: one row
per group -- label beside its control, thin rules between -- across the top
of the map, spanning ~87% of its width at 1600px and wrapping to a second
row as it narrows.

It starts clear of Leaflet's zoom buttons and stops short of the corner
controls, which stay outside it: the button that hides the filters cannot
live inside the thing it hides. The bottom-left band legend keeps its place.
The sentence explaining the two path toggles would have swallowed the bar,
so it moves to their tooltips and is shown inline only in the stacked
narrow-screen layout.

sjg 2c56d82a81 [feat](trx-frontend-http): make the SQL label the squelch switch
CI / lint (push) Successful in 2m17s
CI / test (push) Successful in 8m13s
CI / frontend (push) Failing after 30s
CI / reuse (push) Successful in 3s
Clicking SQL turns the squelch on and off.  The label and the button
beside it said the same thing twice — one naming the control, the other
reading "On" or "Off" — where the name itself is the obvious target, and
the dot already carries the state: grey when off, green while the gate
passes, amber while it holds.

The pressed state is on the label, so the switch reads the same to a
screen reader as it looks.

sjg 2c1df75d19 [fix](trx-frontend-http): measure auto squelch from the meter
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 3m16s
CI / reuse (push) Successful in 2s
CI / lint (push) Successful in 2m18s
CI / test (push) Successful in 8m14s
Auto took the spectrum's noise floor and added 6 dB, but the threshold
is compared against the channel level the meter reports, and the two sit
a long way apart: the gap is set by the FFT size and window, the channel
bandwidth, the decimation, and peak-versus-mean statistics.  Measured on
white noise it runs +22.1 dB at 48k/8k/3k, +18.7 dB at 240k/24k/12k and
-1.2 dB at 1.92M/24k/12k — a 23 dB swing across ordinary configurations.
Only the last of those is anywhere near right, so on a narrow span Auto
set the gate some 20 dB below the noise and it never closed.

It now reads the same number the DSP compares: the 20th percentile of
the meter over the last ten seconds, plus 5 dB.  The percentile keeps a
burst of traffic inside the window from dragging the estimate up, and
5 dB clears the meter's own jitter, which measured 0.9-1.6 dB.  Nothing
in it converts between scales, so no part of the signal chain can put it
out again.  With no history yet — a fresh connection, a rig switch — it
listens for a moment rather than refusing.

The fixture gained a streaming /meter, without which there is nothing to
measure, and the spectrum test pins auto to the meter it serves.

sjg aefd36c4b1 [feat](trx-frontend-http): set the squelch on the spectrum, in dB
CI / lint (push) Successful in 2m19s
CI / test (push) Successful in 8m41s
CI / frontend (push) Failing after 31s
CI / reuse (push) Successful in 2s
The threshold is in dB, and since the squelch fix that is the scale the
spectrum axis and the S-meter are labelled in — so the control belongs
on the plot, at the level it gates.  A dashed line spans the spectrum at
its threshold with a grip that reads it out, dragged like the bandwidth
edges, green while the signal is above it and amber while it gates.
Arrow keys move it a dB at a time for anyone not using a mouse.

The audio row keeps a compact version: the dB, an indicator lit from the
same meter the DSP compares against, Auto, and an enable toggle that no
longer doubles as the level.  The slider ran 0-100% over that dB range,
which gave the operator a number with nothing on screen to relate it to,
and zero meant "disabled", so turning the squelch off to listen threw
the threshold away.  Auto now says which level it picked.

Two things the browser could only show once it was on the plot: the grip
landed underneath the split control at the right edge, which swallowed
its pointer, and dragging to the foot of the axis hid the line — and the
grip with it — instead of pinning it where it could be dragged back.

The fixture could not exercise any of this: /audio answered 404, which
hides the audio row and the control inside it, and the status carried no
filter block, which is what tells the client the rig has a squelch at
all.  Both now look like an SDR, and the spectrum test drives the line.

sjg 4fa191e9b6 [fix](trx-frontend-http): serve the band plan to every session
CI / lint (push) Failing after 1s
CI / test (push) Successful in 8m20s
CI / frontend (push) Failing after 31s
CI / reuse (push) Successful in 3s
/bandplan.json needed the control role.  Route access is decided by
suffix for static assets — .js, .css, .png and so on — and ".json" is
not among them, so the band plan matched nothing and fell through to the
catch-all.  It is compiled into the binary and identical for every user,
so it is public now, like the rest of them.

Two things followed from that.  Read-only sessions never saw a band plan
at all.  And since the page asks for it during startup, the request can
land before the session is established: that 401 was swallowed by an
empty catch and never retried, which is why the allocations sometimes
only appeared after a manual reload.

So the client no longer hides the failure, retries once the auth gate
clears — which is exactly when a startup 401 becomes fixable — and
schedules a draw when the data lands, since the strip is painted from
the spectrum draw and a rig sitting between frames would stay blank.

The fixture can now refuse the first request the way the server did, and
the spectrum layout test holds the client to recovering from it.

sjg 657f952a2c [fix](trx-frontend-http): hold the strips' place above the spectrum
Tuning across a band edge moved the whole page under the cursor: the
band plan strip is in flow, so a range with no allocations collapsed it
from 18px to nothing and dragged every element below it up (measured at
1600x950: overview top 118 to 100, footer 1026 to 1008).  It now keeps
its height whenever a band plan could be drawn at all, and only gives it
back when the feature is off, has no data, or there is no spectrum.

The bookmark rail gets the same treatment for consistency, though it
never moved anything — it is absolutely positioned over the top of the
overview.  It stays up and blank rather than vanishing.

Which exposes something the rail was already doing wrong: it covers the
top of the plot, and a bare div still takes pointer events, so whenever
bookmarks were in range that band of the overview could not be dragged
or scrolled.  Only the chips are targets now.

tests/spectrum-layout.mjs covers this: it streams spectrum frames, tunes
between a band with bookmarks and allocations and one with neither, and
asserts nothing moves and that the rail lets clicks through.
