POD MFD bring-up: BT_POD_SURFACES bare-panel mode + placement receipts + probe

Browse Source 
Nick's crash cart is the first shot at driving the real MFD panels, so the
pieces the cab needs that the desktop glass path lacked:

- BT_POD_SURFACES=1 (L4GLASSWIN): crop every display window to its SURFACE
  (MFDs exactly 640x480, radar 480x640 portrait), drop the on-screen RIO
  button banks -- the cab's buttons are PHYSICAL, so drawing fake ones onto a
  real panel is exactly wrong -- go frameless, and skip the Flight Controls
  pad entirely (6 windows, not 7).  Per-window ",bare" in glass_layout.cfg
  for mixed rigs (idempotent with the global mode).
- Placement receipts: each window logs which PHYSICAL monitor it landed on
  ("[glasswin] 'Heat MFD' surface=Heat at X,Y 640x480 bare -> monitor
  \.\DISPLAYn (...)").  Nobody can see 7 surfaces at once on a cab, and over
  Chrome Remote Desktop you cannot see the panels at all -- the log is the
  only confirmation the map is right.
- tools/podprobe.ps1: run-on-the-pod topology probe (no install/admin) --
  GPUs, every monitor's virtual-desktop rect, EDID make/model, serial ports
  (the RIO board), session type, plus a PROPOSED glass_layout.cfg assigning
  the six surfaces to the non-primary monitors.  Self-tested here (correctly
  reports a single-monitor laptop and declines to map).

Local verify: 5 MFDs at 640x480 bare + portrait radar + Flight Controls
dropped, receipts printed.  KB: pod-hardware §MFD PANELS ON REAL HARDWARE
(incl. WHY the 1995 path is not the route -- NVIDIA Horizontal Span is gone
from post-XP drivers and per-adapter exclusive fullscreen is fragile over a
remote session) + glass-cockpit env table.
