site_id (u16) is reserved in the announcement payload from day one,
always 0 in single-site deployments. Documents the site gateway node
concept and fully-qualified addressing (site_id:namespace:instance) so
multi-site can be added later without wire format changes.

A node can declare multiple roles simultaneously (e.g. relay + sink).
Replaces the function string with a fixed-size flags field; keeps the
payload layout simple and fixed-width up to the name.

Reuse UDP multicast transport (224.0.0.251:5353) with our own binary
wire format — no Avahi, no Bonjour, no daemon dependency.

- dev/web/ is the browser-side equivalent of dev/cli/ — a Node.js dev UI
that speaks the binary protocol and exposes V4L2/topology inspection
- Explicitly noted as blocked on transport+protocol being finalised
- Distinguished from the future production dashboard
- Directory structure updated to show serial/transport/protocol modules

architecture.md:
- Web interface connects as a first-class binary protocol peer; no JSON
bridge in C; DataView in JS maps directly to get_u32 etc.
- Future preprocessor section: protocol schema defined once, emits both
C (put/get, write_*/read_*) and ESM JS (DataView encode/decode);
same tool as planned for error location codes
planning.md:
- Add web node (entry #11) to module order
- Add Future: Protocol Preprocessor section above Deferred Decisions

put_u8/16/32/64 and get_u8/16/32/64 (plus signed variants) for packing
and unpacking values at explicit byte offsets in a buffer. Each value is
encoded byte-by-byte with explicit shift operations — no struct casting,
no alignment assumptions, correct on any host endianness.

CC, CFLAGS, and BUILD are now defined once in common.mk at the repo root.
Each module and CLI Makefile sets ROOT then includes common.mk, eliminating
the repeated definitions.

architecture.md: replace JSON control payloads with binary serialization;
add Protocol Serialization section describing little-endian wire format,
put/get buffer layer, and write_*/read_* protocol layer.
planning.md: mark common/media_ctrl/v4l2_ctrl done; insert serial (#4)
and protocol (#6) modules with descriptions.
conventions.md: document -flto and its implication (no manual static for
inlining — compiler handles it at link time).
Makefiles: add -flto to CFLAGS in all four Makefiles.

The CLI is a separate translation unit that doesn't include <linux/media.h>,
so the kernel flag constants were undefined there. Fix by defining our own
public constants in media_ctrl.h:
- MEDIA_LINK_FL_{ENABLED,IMMUTABLE,DYNAMIC} for link flags
- MEDIA_PAD_FLAG_{SINK,SOURCE} for pad flags (distinct names avoid
redefinition conflict with kernel's MEDIA_PAD_FL_* in media_ctrl.c)
media_ctrl.c now translates kernel flags to our constants on the way out.
Added fallback #defines for kernel constants that were missing them.

Modules (src/modules/):
- common/error: App_Error struct with structured detail union, error codes,
app_error_print(); designed for future upgrade to preprocessor-generated
location codes
- media_ctrl: media device enumeration, topology query (entities/pads/links),
link enable/disable via Media Controller API (/dev/media*)
- v4l2_ctrl: control enumeration (with menu item fetching), get/set via
V4L2 ext controls API, device discovery (/dev/video*)
All modules use -std=c11 -D_GNU_SOURCE, build artifacts go to build/ only.
Kernel-version-dependent constants guarded with #ifdef + #warning.
CLI drivers (dev/cli/):
- media_ctrl_cli: list, info, topology, set-link subcommands
- v4l2_ctrl_cli: list, controls, get, set subcommands
Docs (docs/cli/):
- media_ctrl_cli.md and v4l2_ctrl_cli.md with usage, examples, and
context within the video routing system

Move modules under src/modules/ and public headers under include/,
keeping dev/, tests/, and docs at the top level. Adds a placeholder
for src/node/ where the final video node entry point will live.

Initial documentation for the multi-peer video routing system:
- architecture.md covers graph model, transport protocol, relay design,
and the Pi get-it-on-the-wire-first rationale
- planning.md defines module build order and directory structure
- conventions.md captures C11 code style, naming, error handling approach,
and directory layout rules
