Tapping the weather icon in the header now shows a small info popup
explaining that the shown weather always follows the currently active
location (including an active location preset).
The System menu's buttons now fill the available screen height
instead of leaving unused space below, computed from a dedicated
systemRowRect() helper. "Info" (About) is pinned as the second-to-last
entry, directly above Back, so its position stays stable regardless of
how many other entries come before it.
In the Flight options menu, all plain ON/OFF toggles (LED heartbeat,
emergency alert, proximity LED, watchlist alert, hide ground vehicles)
are now grouped together at the end of the list, right above Back,
instead of being interleaved with the screen/list entries above them.

Adds a "Logbook / WebUI" entry directly in Menu > System, showing the
device's IP and usage instructions (previously only reachable via a
hidden "?" button in Logbook Files). The web export page now supports
downloading and deleting individual daily logbook CSV files, in
addition to the existing merged CSV download.
Fixes a task watchdog reset that could reboot the device mid-download
when exporting the logbook via the built-in web server: the CSV send
loop never yielded the CPU, starving the idle task on larger logbooks.
The export loop now yields periodically (delay(1) every 10 lines and
after each file).
Removes the screenshot feature (camera button, on-device BMP storage,
web-based screenshot browser). Screenshots always came out solid
black - diagnosis showed the SPI readback from the display returns all
zeros regardless of SPI_READ_FREQUENCY, indicating TFT_MISO isn't
wired to the display on this CYD board revision. This is a hardware
limitation, not fixable in software, so the feature has been removed
rather than shipped broken.

New:
- Flight logbook safety net: disabled by default, requires confirming
a full-screen warning before it can be turned on, and automatically
switches off again after exactly 24 hours - survives restarts and
power cycles (no valid enable timestamp = guaranteed off). Each
activation now writes its own CSV file instead of endlessly
appending to one growing file, and every file can be deleted
individually from Logbook files.
- Adjustable display brightness (10-100% in 10% steps, Menu -> System
-> "Brightness") with a live preview.
- About screen (Menu -> System -> "About") showing project name,
description, and firmware version.
Fixed:
- Radar's red altitude band (>9100m/30000ft) no longer gets dimmed at
night - the previous dim tone looked orange-brown and was hard to
tell apart from yellow. Legend and markers are consistent again.
- Radius change no longer leaves a stale "tail" trail behind each
aircraft between the old and new position.
- Splash screen no longer shows a time-of-day greeting that appeared
too late in the boot sequence to be useful; the star animation now
starts immediately instead of only near the end of boot.
- Clock stayed on raw UTC after the first boot instead of local time
(missing DST handling in some timezones) because the location wait
loop skipped the timezone lookup once a location was already saved.
- Header clock no longer leaves stale digit fragments behind the
current time, most visible on the last minute digit.

New:
- Aircraft list (Menu -> Flight Options, top entry): sortable list
(distance/altitude/callsign) of every aircraft currently in range,
with the same altitude color-coding and emergency/watchlist border
highlighting as the radar. Tapping a row jumps back to the radar
with that aircraft's detail panel already open.
- Night dimming now also softens the radar screen itself (aircraft
markers and the sweep line switch to darker tones) during the
existing 22:00-06:00 window, reusing the same setting - no new
toggle.
Improved:
- Removed the unused built-in TFT_eSPI number fonts (GLCD/Font2/
Font4/Font6/Font7/Font8) from platformio.ini - the project only
ever uses the custom UI font via setFreeFont(). Saves ~15KB flash.
Also documents a CYD-flightradar.bin staleness safety check in the
CLAUDE.md release workflow (delete any leftover copy from a previous
release before renaming the fresh build, so an old binary can never
be silently re-used for a GitHub release).

Adds a 7-day bar-chart view of the flight logbook (Menu -> Flight
Options -> History chart), and a small built-in web server that
serves a logbook overview page plus a merged CSV export of all
logged days once the device is connected to WiFi (discoverable via
the "?" button on the Logbook files screen, which now also shows the
live device IP). Also fixes the "nearest airport" line on the
Location Presets screen, which previously used tft.setViewport() and
went completely invisible with our custom font - it now scrolls as a
proper marquee without relying on the viewport clip.
Also documents the standard release workflow in CLAUDE.md.
