device.py's mode-keyed dispatch is replaced by a real compositor:
load a frame's widgets, compute pixel rects via app/grid.py, render
each through its widget module, and composite with render_panel.
Physical NEXT/BACK buttons now execute each frame's assigned
FrameButtonAction rows instead of one hardcoded per-mode action.
api_frames.py, manage.py, and common.py's build_manage_content are
repointed to read/write the frame's widget config rows instead of
the old Frame columns, and every settings page (Photos/Calendar/
Whiteboard tabs) now pre-fills its form from the same widget config
the write endpoints actually save to -- previously the read and
write sides would have silently diverged. The old mode selector and
photo-inlay checkbox are removed along with their now-inert wiring;
arbitrary widget placement subsumes what the fixed inlay split did.
Ships together with Phase 1 (per-type render/action modules) since
splitting the read/write cutover across deploys would have left
settings changes with no visible effect.
