feat: make UIButton work in the web UI

[mairas]

Summary

Supersedes PR 1061 by @humppafreak. That PR's head branch lives in an organization-owned fork, which GitHub's "allow edits by maintainers" does not cover, so its two review rounds could not be pushed to the PR itself. This PR carries the same feature with the review fixes folded into the feature commit — no commit in this chain contains the intermediate states the reviews flagged. The feature commit keeps the original authorship and credits the contributor.

The feature: UIButton::add(name, title) previously registered into a static registry that nothing served or rendered. This wires it end to end — GET /api/buttons lists the registry, POST /api/buttons/<name> accepts a click (CSRF-guarded, deferred to the event loop with a shared_ptr capture) and a new Control page renders the buttons with confirm-dialog and toast handling.

Folded review fixes, from round 1 (findings) and round 2 (findings): callbacks deferred off the httpd task, declared response bodies actually sent, name buffer bounded by decoded length (long and non-ASCII names were listed but unclickable), camelCase mustConfirm, internal linkage for handler helpers, Control page loading state with ConfigCards-style abort and retry. Standalone commits cover the separable aspects: the pre-existing reset/restart empty-body fix, a stale include-guard comment, a duplicate-name registration warning, dev-server mocks, and the embedded bundle rebuild.

Test plan

• Native test suite passes (25 of 25).
• CI-equivalent ESP32 test-suite compile passes on the identical tree (modulo dropped formatting churn in base_command_handler.cpp, verified token-identical with git diff -w).
• Frontend: eslint, prettier, and vite build clean; embedded bundle regenerated from the final source.
• The contributor verified the feature on hardware in the original PR (button renders, click fires the callback).

Summary

This PR adds end-to-end web UI support for UIButton.

• Exposes registered buttons through GET /api/buttons.
• Accepts CSRF-protected clicks through POST /api/buttons/<name>.
• Defers button callbacks to the event loop.
• Adds a Control page with confirmation dialogs, loading states, retry handling, and toast notifications.
• Adds development-server mocks and registers the Control route.
• Fixes reset and restart response bodies, duplicate registration warnings, and the include-guard comment.
• Rebuilds the embedded frontend bundle.

Native tests, ESP32 compilation, frontend checks, and hardware verification pass.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds a Control page and a dynamic UI button API. The backend validates requests and invokes registered buttons asynchronously. The frontend loads buttons, handles confirmation and request states, and displays feedback. Mock routes support the new page and API.

Changes

Control feature

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Button HTTP API and validation src/sensesp/net/web/base_command_handler.*, src/sensesp/net/web/ui_button_handler.*, src/sensesp/ui/ui_button.h	The web layer validates request origins, lists registered buttons, validates button names, returns errors for unknown buttons, and schedules accepted callbacks. Button names longer than 64 characters remain hidden from the web UI.
Application registration and route exposure src/sensesp_app.h, src/sensesp/net/web/base_command_handler.cpp	Application setup registers button handlers. The routes response exposes the Control page. Reset and restart responses use httpd_resp_sendstr.
Control page and mock integration frontend/src/App.tsx, frontend/src/pages/Control/index.tsx, frontend/mock/*	The frontend resolves and renders the Control page, loads button metadata, supports loading, retry, empty, confirmation, and error states, submits actions, disables pending buttons, and displays toast feedback. Mock routes provide Control and button API responses.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 4642d

The PR adds web controls for registered buttons and their POST actions. Requests from unusually long but valid same-origin authorities may still be rejected before an action runs, so affected users could be unable to trigger controls; this is a bounded risk suitable for explicit owner awareness or follow-up.

- Around line 39-46: Update check_origin to obtain each Origin and Host header
length with httpd_req_get_hdr_value_len(), allocate buffers sized for those
values plus terminators, and then retrieve them before comparison. Preserve
allowing requests without Origin and the existing 403 rejection behavior, while
supporting authorities up to the configured header limit.

In `@src/sensesp/net/web/ui_button_handler.cpp`:
- Around line 48-49: Remove the redundant length comment preceding the url_tail
assignment, or replace the hard-coded index with a named prefix constant if the
offset requires explanation; keep the existing request URI extraction behavior
unchanged.

In `@src/sensesp/ui/ui_button.h`:
- Around line 38-48: Update UIButton::add to reject names longer than 64
characters before inserting them into ui_buttons_, matching the POST endpoint’s
accepted-name limit so GET cannot expose unusable controls. Preserve existing
duplicate-name replacement behavior for valid names.
