New "Check for update" entry in Menu > System checks the latest
GitHub release's tag against the running version and, if newer,
downloads and flashes its firmware.bin asset directly over WiFi -
no cable or web flasher needed. Requires switching the partition
scheme to min_spiffs (two OTA-capable app partitions instead of a
single non-OTA one), which needs a full reflash.
confirmWarningScreen() now takes title/body as strings instead of
StringIds so it can show a dynamically composed message (the target
version number) for the update confirmation, with an accent color
parameter so the OTA confirmation can use green instead of the
red used for the existing destructive-action confirmations.

Detail panel now shows origin/destination via adsbdb.com callsign
lookup. Rotorcraft (ADS-B category A7) get a distinct rotor-cross
marker instead of a heading arrowhead, same rationale as the existing
ground-vehicle marker. WebUI info screen gets a QR button (when WiFi
is connected) that renders the local WebUI URL as a scannable code.

## New
- "Welcome" screen shown on first-time setup (before touch
calibration), with the splash screen's animated radar graphic and a
Start button.
- The "Setup complete" screen now counts down 7 seconds with a button
matching the Welcome screen's style, then automatically continues
into the app (previously required a tap).
- System menu "Backup & Reset" page (Backup, Restore, and a new
"Reset settings" option that wipes the on-device data and re-runs
first-time setup - useful for testing or handing the device to
someone else).
- Touch calibration targets are now green mini radar reticles instead
of red crosshairs.
## Improved
- The SD card's data folder is now only created after tapping Start
on the Welcome screen, instead of on every boot regardless.
- Flash partition layout changed to free up roughly 850 KB of
firmware space (no OTA update slot needed, since firmware is always
flashed via cable/USB) - lowers flash usage from ~95% to ~59%.
## Fixed
- The Start button and the WiFi scanning screen now show a loading
indicator instead of appearing frozen during SD-card/WiFi
operations.
- A touch-input bug during first-time setup that could corrupt touch
calibration and cause taps to land on the wrong on-screen element
afterward (most noticeable in the WiFi network selection list).

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:
- 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).
