## Summary
The GitHub recent release API returns lots of data, including the full
release notes. For 1.2.0, that data is 30,530 bytes. The existing
OtaUpdater HTTP handler and single-buffer JSON parsing can't reliably
handle that much data in the constrained ESP32 environment.
This change does a few things:
1. Adds a very simple lib/JsonParser/StreamingJsonParser.cpp with
SAX-style callbacks to read JSON data incrementally.
2. Adds a very simple lib/JsonParser/ReleaseJsonParser.cpp building on
StreamingJsonParser, which specifically parses the GitHub release JSON
for the release version, URL, and size.
3. Updates OtaUpdater.cpp to use an instance of ReleaseJsonParser to
incrementally parse the large response it may receive from GitHub.
Building from this commit while overriding my local version to 1.1.9, I
was able to run the OTA update process ~5 times in a row successfully.
Fixes#1561 (second part, after #1805).

## Summary
Currently, each activity has to manage their own `displayTaskLoop` which
adds redundant boilerplate code. The loop is a wait loop which is also
not the best practice, as the `updateRequested` boolean is not protected
by a mutex.
In this PR:
- Move `displayTaskLoop` to the super `Activity` class
- Replace `updateRequested` with freeRTOS's [direct to task
notification](https://www.freertos.org/Documentation/02-Kernel/02-Kernel-features/03-Direct-to-task-notifications/01-Task-notifications)
- For `ActivityWithSubactivity`, whenever a sub-activity is present, the
parent's `render()` automatically goes inactive
With this change, activities now only need to expose `render()`
function, and anywhere in the code base can call `requestUpdate()` to
request a new rendering pass.
## Additional Context
In theory, this change may also make the battery life a bit better,
since one wait loop is removed. Although the equipment in my home lab
wasn't been able to verify it (the electric current is too noisy and
small). Would appreciate if anyone has any insights on this subject.
Update: I managed to hack [a small piece of
code](https://github.com/ngxson/crosspoint-reader/tree/xsn/measure_cpu_usage)
that allow tracking CPU idle time.
The CPU load does decrease a bit (1.47% down to 1.39%), which make
sense, because the display task is now sleeping most of the time unless
notified. This should translate to a slightly increase in battery life
in the long run.

across all activities, improving efficiency and consistency.
* Modernized synchronization patterns for display updates to ensure
reliable, conflict-free rendering.
* **Bug Fixes**

## Summary
* Definition and use of a central LOG function, that can later be
extended or completely be removed (for public use where debugging
information may not be required) to save flash by suppressing the
-DENABLE_SERIAL_LOG like in the slim branch
* **What changes are included?**
## Additional Context
* By using the central logger the usual:
```
#include <HardwareSerial.h>
...
Serial.printf("[%lu] [WCS] Obfuscating/deobfuscating %zu bytes\n", millis(), data.size());
```
would then become
```
#include <Logging.h>
...
LOG_DBG("WCS", "Obfuscating/deobfuscating %zu bytes", data.size());
```
You do have ``LOG_DBG`` for debug messages, ``LOG_ERR`` for error
messages and ``LOG_INF`` for informational messages. Depending on the
verbosity level defined (see below) soe of these message types will be
suppressed/not-compiled.
* The normal compilation (default) will create a firmware.elf file of
42.194.356 bytes, the same code via slim will create 42.024.048 bytes -
170.308 bytes less
* Firmware.bin : 6.469.984 bytes for default, 6.418.672 bytes for slim -
51.312 bytes less

## Summary
* Allow OTA update from RC build to full release
* If all the segments match, then also check if the current version
contains "-rc"

## Summary
Finally, I have received my device and got to chance to work on OTA.
https://github.com/crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader/issues/176
* **What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Implements the new feature for
file uploading.)
Existing OTA functionality is very buggy, many of times (I would say 8
out of 10) are end up with fail for me. When the time that it works it
is very slow and take ages. For others looks like end up with crash or
different issues.
* **What changes are included?**
To be honest, I'm not familiar with Arduino APIs of OTA process, but
looks like not good as much esp-idf itself. I always found Arduino APIs
very bulky for esp32. Wrappers and wrappers.
## Additional Context
Right now, OTA takes ~ 3min 10sec (of course depends on size of .bin
file). Can be tested with playing version info inside from
`platform.ini` file.
```
[crosspoint]
version = 0.14.0

## Summary
* **What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Fixes a bug in the user
authentication module, Implements the new feature for
file uploading.)
This PR refactors the semantic version comparison logic used during OTA
update checks.
Memory stats before :
RAM: [=== ] 30.8% (used 101068 bytes from 327680 bytes)
Flash: [========= ] 85.7% (used **5617830** bytes from 6553600 bytes)
Memory stats before :
RAM: [=== ] 30.8% (used 101068 bytes from 327680 bytes)
Flash: [========= ] 85.7% (used **5616870** bytes from 6553600 bytes)
* **What changes are included?**
Replaced std::string::substr() and std::stoi() based parsing with a
lightweight, heap-free approach.
Version parsing is now done in a single pass without creating temporary
std::string objects.
Behavior remains identical: versions are still compared as
MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
## Additional Context
`std::string::substr() ` creates a new string and performs heap
allocation
* Add any other information that might be helpful for the reviewer
(e.g., performance implications, potential risks, specific areas to
focus on).
## Summary
* Adds support for OTA
* Gets latest firmware bin from latest GitHub release
* I have noticed it be a little flaky unpacking the JSON and
occasionally failing to start
