The operator now holds the lobby: with 'Manual launch' checked (default),
the relay stops at 'all pods have the egg; WAITING FOR OPERATOR LAUNCH'
instead of auto-firing on a 20s timer -- the app shows 'ALL PODS READY --
press LAUNCH MISSION' with the roster lights, and the big green button
fires the mission when the operator is ready (everyone seated, voice chat
confirmed). A 'Restart session' button cycles the same mission/roster for
the next round (players just re-run their join script).
- btconsole.py --relay --manual-launch: launch armed by the line 'launch'
on stdin (a daemon reader thread; the app's Launch button writes it via
QProcess). The settle window is still honoured relative to egg delivery
(max(now, eggs_done + 20s)) -- firing RunMission before the pods reach
WaitingForLaunch Fail()s them, the same hazard the auto timer guards.
Auto mode (no flag) unchanged -- CLI/test recipes unaffected.
- btoperator.py: Manual-launch checkbox (Network box, default on), LAUNCH
MISSION button (enabled by the relay's READY line, disabled after fire),
Restart session button, status headline shows the ready state.
- operator_e2e.py: now exercises the gate -- waits for READY, asserts the
button enabled, presses it, verifies the operator-gated LAUNCH.
Verified: scripted e2e PASS -- registered -> READY (held) -> operator
launch -> settle honoured -> both pods LAUNCHED (operator-gated=True).
