READY light: pods report load-complete to the operator roster

Browse Source 
The roster showed "registered" for a still-loading pod and a ready one
alike -- with multi-minute contended loads the operator couldn't tell
who they'd be waiting on.  When the app ladder reaches WaitingForLaunch
the pod sends one empty route -10 frame on its live relay game socket
(BTRelayNotifyReady; socket mirrored at HELLO); the relay announces
SEAT n READY (k/m loaded) and the console GUI lights the seat
bright-green with a "N pod(s) LOADED+READY" banner.

Verified LIVE by the operator: blue (seated) -> teal (registered) ->
green (ready) in order, twice.  Also resolved the load-speed mystery:
loads are ~30s uncontended; the 1-2+ minute cases were assistant
background test runs competing with the user's interactive sessions on
the same machine (memory note added -- no game-spawning tests while the
user is testing).
