Add BLE Wi-Fi provisioning alongside the setup SoftAP

Wraps ESP-IDF's official wifi_provisioning manager (BLE transport,
protocomm Security1, NimBLE host) so a phone can join the device to
Wi-Fi over the ESP32-S3's own onboard BLE radio, without first
connecting to the 192.168.4.1 SoftAP. Chosen over a custom GATT
service specifically so the existing generic "ESP BLE Provisioning"
iOS/Android apps work today, before the dedicated DigiRadio app
exists — same standard protocol either app would speak.

net::ble_provisioning::start() is additive, not a replacement: it
runs next to the current SoftAP + POST /api/wifi HTTP route inside
NetBootstrap's startSetupMode(), and failing to start it is
non-fatal (same pattern already used there for the SigmaStudio TCP
bridge) — SoftAP setup keeps working either way. Proof-of-possession
is the device's own serial number (same source as the SoftAP SSID),
so pairing requires reading it off the unit rather than being wide
open. On WIFI_PROV_CRED_SUCCESS the received wifi_sta_config_t is
converted to the same core::WifiCredentials type the HTTP handler
uses and saved through the same ISecureStore, then the device
reboots into STA mode — one persistence path regardless of which
transport provisioned it.

BT1035 is unaffected: it's a separate UART-attached classic
Bluetooth module for A2DP output. This uses the ESP32-S3's
independent internal BLE controller, switched to NimBLE (smaller
footprint than Bluedroid, the only host stack needed for a single
peripheral-role GATT service). App binary still has 33% free flash
after pulling in wifi_provisioning/protocomm/NimBLE.

Verified: idf.py build, doxygen (0 warnings), check-manual-sync,
check_si4684_blobs, ctest (19/19) all green. Not yet tested with a
real BLE provisioning app or on hardware — board is disconnected
this session.

* @brief start — start the ESP-IDF wifi_provisioning manager over BLE.

* @dname start
* @param store Secure store the received credentials are saved
* to (same store POST /api/wifi writes to).
* @param deviceIdentity Supplies the BLE advertising name (softApSsid)
* and the proof-of-possession string (serialNumber).
* @return Ok once provisioning is advertising, or NetError::BleProvisioningFailed.
* @pubstate Starts the onboard ESP32-S3 BLE radio (independent of the BT1035
* UART module) and a process-lifetime wifi_provisioning manager
* singleton. On a successful join, saves credentials to store and
* reboots, mirroring wifiPostHandler's POST /api/wifi behaviour.
* Runs alongside the existing SoftAP + HTTP provisioning route,
* not instead of it — either path can complete setup.
