Bring the Spanning Tree page in line with a typical managed switch's
per-port panel. Configuration gains the full-range path cost (raw
0..200000000, 0 = auto, replacing the old 1000x-scaled byte), a
point-to-point admin control (auto/on/off), and the priority is now a
0..240 step-16 dropdown. A new status table shows, per port, the Port
State, Role, Designated Bridge / Port ID / Cost (learned from received
BPDUs, kept per port and aged via the BPDU age), Operational Edge and
Operational Point-to-Point.
The designated fields fall back to presenting this switch as the
segment's designated bridge when no fresh BPDU has been heard (so a
quiet port shows our own bridge-id, as the vendor UIs do). /stp.json
carries the packed hex fields plus our own MAC for that fallback.
Space: reclaim BANK2 for the above by moving rtl837x_pins to HOME and
compacting leds_dump into a register-address table (~800B); bandwidth
returns to BANK1. No BANK3 - hardware-verified that PSBANK > 2 crashes
this SoC at boot (a bricked unit and an SPI-programmer recovery earlier
today); a warning to that effect is now in rtl837x_lldp.c.
Hardware-verified: cost 200000000 and p2p off round-trip through the CLI
and JSON, the status table populates correctly with STP enabled (all
ports Forwarding/Designated, oper-edge and oper-p2p True), LACP 3f/3f
and the LAN unaffected.

Enabling STP on a bridge whose management rides an in-band VLAN can cut
off that very management - and not only by our own blocking: on this
network the upstream TP-Link Easy Smart switch's "loop prevention"
reacted to our BPDU hellos by blocking ITS port towards us while our
ASIC was all-forwarding, isolating the whole segment until a power
cycle. Recoverable only by going quiet.
Add a commit-confirm watchdog: while STP is enabled, any HTTP request
re-arms a countdown ("stp failsafe <seconds>", default 180, 0 disables);
if management stays silent for the whole window, STP disables itself,
which also stops BPDU TX so a neighbour's loop protection can release
its block. The web UI polls /stp.json every 2 s, so an open browser
naturally keeps the watchdog re-armed. The trip is reported via
/stp.json (fs, fsT) and as a warning on the Spanning Tree page.
Deliberately not conditioned on our own MSTP port states - the incident
above proves the uplink can be dead while every local port forwards.
Also bound the NIC DMA busy-waits (nic_tx_packet, nic_rx_header,
nic_rx_packet): an unbounded spin on SFR_NIC_CTRL freezes the entire
main loop (timers, HTTP, ARP) if the ASIC ever fails to consume a
transfer; give up after ~65k polls and drop the frame instead.
Hardware-verified end to end: with priority 15 against a live RSTP
bridge the uplink died 6 s after "stp on" and the network recovered BY
ITSELF 66 s later (trip at 45 s + neighbour release), fsT=1, LACP and
LAN intact. Telemetry via syslog-to-edge-port host confirmed the full
chain: countdown 44->4, trip, hello TX stopping at the trip.

Implements the standard 802.1D-2004/802.1w configuration surface:
Bridge: priority (0-15 x4096), hello time, max age, forward delay,
force-version (RSTP v2 / STP-compatible v0 Config BPDUs), tx hold
count (per-port per-second BPDU budget).
Per port: enable, admin edge (forwarding immediately - no listen gap),
auto edge (forwarding after 3 s of BPDU silence; DEFAULT, so
host-facing ports no longer take the full forward delay),
path cost (0=auto/20000), port priority, BPDU guard (port disabled
on BPDU receipt), root guard (never accept a better root on the
port), BPDU filter (no BPDUs in or out).
Engine additions: root max-age expiry (reclaim the tree when the root goes
silent), root path cost accounting (rx cost + root-port cost, advertised in
our BPDUs), loop detection (our own BPDU coming back blocks the port for a
listen period), topology-change counter, approximated per-port roles
(Root/Designated/Alternate) for diagnostics.
CLI: "stp prio|hello|maxage|fwd|txhold|version ..." and
"stp port <n> on|off|edge|cost|prio|guard|filter ..." (stp_parse, delegated
from cmd_parser); all forms accepted by the startup-config validator so the
whole configuration persists. /stp.json now reports config + status; the
Spanning Tree page exposes everything with immediate-apply controls and live
state/role columns (edit-in-flight guard against the 2 s refresh).
8051 memory: the module moves to code BANK2; internal-RAM pressure from
cross-bank calls resolved by xdata loop iterators/scratch, __reentrant on
the small helpers, and moving httpd's header-pointer globals to xdata.
Verified on hardware (SWTGW218AS): defaults land per standard; priority and
hello change live; admin-edge ports (the LACP bond uplinks) keep the LAN at
0% loss THROUGH "stp on"; auto-edge ports forward after 3 s; a port that
heard real BPDUs (a VM bridge behind physical port 6) correctly declined
auto-edge, sat out the full listen period and became Designated; tc counts
promotions; we win the root election at priority 16384 vs 32768.
(cherry picked from commit 09a34dc6acdc81ab9cab0727d2f4a59c68131a3e)
"stp on" put every port into blocking (stp_setup, port_timers = "10 s") but
nothing ever counted those timers down: stp_timers() only sent hello BPDUs.
On a network with no other (R)STP bridge - i.e. nobody sends us BPDUs - every
port therefore stayed blocking FOREVER and enabling STP took the whole
network down until "stp off".
- stp_timers(): count port_timers down; when a port's listen period expires
with no better root heard, promote it to forwarding in MSTP_STATES (we are
the designated bridge on that port).
- Calibrate the tick constants to the real stp_timers() rate (~64 Hz: main
loop ~256 Hz / (STP_TICK_DIVIDER+1)): TIME_HELLO 0x200->0x80 is an actual
2 s hello, port_timers 0xa00->0x280 an actual 10 s listen period. Measured
before the fix, ports converged only after ~40 s.
- Move struct bridge into rtl837x_stp.h and export root_bridge/-_cost for
the web UI status endpoint.
Verified on hardware: "stp on" -> ports report Blocking, after the 10 s
listen period all ports promote to Forwarding and LAN connectivity returns;
"stp off" restores forwarding immediately. We elect ourselves root (weRoot)
with no other bridge present.

This reads RSTP configuration packages and updates the
state information about the believed Root-bridge. New
RSTP packages are sent with the updated information.
