feat(pi): add a Wi-Fi hotspot mode for routerless direct streaming
scripts/pi-hotspot.sh turns the receiver into a WPA2 access point via NetworkManager (ipv4 shared mode gives the Pi built-in DHCP/NAT at 10.42.0.1), so a sender connects directly with no router in between — which also sidesteps LAN quirks like unreachable 6to4 addresses, since the direct link is plain private IPv4. The passphrase is generated on first use and stored root-only in /etc/screencast-hotspot.conf; on|off|status subcommands manage it, and off restores normal client Wi-Fi. The hotspot owns wlan0 while active (documented). No receiver changes were needed: it already announces on every interface. nmcli property syntax validated against NetworkManager 1.58 with a disposable never-activated profile; actual AP bring-up can only be validated on the Pi.
