maker-documented hardware platform

The maker describes one badge as an uplink/display XIAO ESP32-S3 and two XIAO ESP32-S3 scanners that share one scanner image but receive BLE-primary and Wi-Fi-primary roles at runtime. It is a source-described architecture, not proof of a universal production revision, board provenance, field reliability, or authorized radio deployment.
