Skip redundant panel refreshes and fetch the image before the config check
The panel driver now splits writing a frame into its SPI buffer (epd_write_frame(), which also computes a CRC32 as it streams) from actually triggering the physical refresh (epd_turn_on_display()). frame_client.c compares the new CRC against the last one that was actually refreshed (persisted in NVS) and skips the refresh entirely when they match -- e.g. a reboot redisplaying the same photo before the server's refresh interval elapsed no longer causes a visible flash for no visual change. Also reorders the per-wake fetch cycle: the image fetch (15s timeout) now goes before the config check (3s timeout), instead of after. The config check's tighter timeout was intermittently tripping on connection-setup latency that's common on the first request after waking from a long deep sleep (e.g. stale ARP); putting the more tolerant request first absorbs that latency, and the config check then rides the connection it already warmed up.
