julian b2a0471b08 Rongta 80mm printer: driver, role-based failover, live status monitoring
Add the rongta PrinterDevice driver (ESC/POS over raw TCP 9100) and the
device-agnostic pieces around it:

- Roles + failover: each printer declares a role (entry-dispenser/booth-
  receipt) and failoverRank; printer-routing.ts picks the best healthy printer
  and falls back outside->booth for entry tickets (never the reverse).
- Live status: MonitorableDevice.readStatus()/PrinterStatus capability. The
  Rongta driver scrapes the device's own /prn_stat.htm (Cover/Cutter/Paper
  End/Near End/Off-Line) rather than hand-decoding DLE EOT, whose reply bytes
  on this clone don't match the canonical ESC/POS bit layout (verified on
  hardware) -- avoids a false-healthy. Maps to ready/degraded/offline, fail
  safe on an unreachable or unexpected page.
- Server PrinterMonitor polls enabled printers (PRINTER_POLL_MS, default 5s),
  caches latest, emits "printer-status" on change. Exposed via
  GET /api/printers/status and an SSE stream for the booth UI.

Verified against 10.0.10.6: ready when healthy, offline when unreachable
(no throw), bus emits on change and suppresses unchanged reads.

Wiki: new rongta-printer entity, printer-roles-failover and
printer-status-monitoring concepts; BOM/index/log updated.

Reference BOM (recommended devices)

Reference bill of materials. Models to verify for local availability (Albania/EU); the payment terminal is dictated by the acquiring bank. (See parking-system-architecture §9.)

Subsystem Recommendation Why
Barrier operator Magnetic Autocontrol / FAAC / CAME / Nice Owns physical safety in firmware (barrier-not-a-door)
Induction loops Feig / BEA / EMX Safety + free-exit detection
Access controller dingtian-relay relay+input board Decoupled inputs (host-in-the-loop); isolate the VLAN (network-isolation). (uhppote-controller/zkteco-controller rejected)
Permit readers Nedap/Kathrein UHF, or Mifare → wiegand Hands-free, or autonomous offline decisions
Casual identity lpr-camera (Milesight, edge AI) Plate = ticket + independent record
Ticket dispenser rongta-printer 80mm (entry-dispenser role) ESC/POS over raw TCP 9100; driver written
Booth printer rongta-printer 80mm (booth-receipt role) Receipts + backup for entry tickets (printer-roles-failover)
Payment Bank-certified P2PE standalone terminal + cash drawer Keeps the app out of PCI-DSS scope
Host machine Fanless industrial PC + UPS + atecc608 Reliability, power-loss safety, offline signing
Network Managed VLAN switch, PoE+ Isolate the open control protocol

Open procurement-driving decisions live in open-questions (esp. lane topology, payment subsystem). Payment subsystem detail: a standalone certified terminal keeps PCI scope out of the application — open-questions #3.
