Firmware: WiFi fast-connect cache (skip scan + DHCP on the next wake)
After a successful home-WiFi connection, caches BSSID/channel and IP/netmask/gateway/DNS in NVS. The next wake's first connect attempt uses the cached BSSID/channel (skips the all-channel scan) and applies the cached IP directly once the link comes up (skips DHCP) -- a couple fewer seconds of radio-on time per wake, free every wake since nothing about the network actually needs renegotiating most of the time. Falls back to a normal scan+DHCP attempt, and clears the cache, if: the fast attempt itself fails, or it "succeeds" at the WiFi layer but the full fetch cycle then fails anyway (a stale cached IP/DNS/gateway that associates but can't actually reach the server). Also cleared on (re)provisioning and factory reset, since a new network shouldn't try to reuse the old one's cache. The static-IP path needed care to get right without touching untested territory: esp_netif_set_ip_info() only posts IP_EVENT_STA_GOT_IP (what the existing connect-wait logic blocks on) once the netif is already up, which the internal netif-glue's own WIFI_EVENT_STA_CONNECTED handler guarantees by running first (registered earlier, in esp_netif_create_default_wifi_sta()) -- confirmed against ESP-IDF's own static_ip example and esp_netif_handlers.c source rather than assumed. Falling back after a failed fast attempt also needed an explicit esp_netif_dhcpc_start() first: esp_netif_dhcpc_stop() leaves the netif's DHCP status STOPPED rather than resetting to INIT, and left alone the glue would silently re-post the stale cached IP on the next connect instead of actually running DHCP (esp_netif_action_connected). Version bumped to 1.1.0 (real feature, not just a fix); build-verified clean on both board configs (devkit 8MB, XIAO 4MB), no new warnings.
