Thomas Ales 23546a03f7 Pre-scan angle inspection: park the rig per angle, read the response on the scope
A 9-angle scan takes hours, and an angle that responds poorly still produces
rows that look structurally fine in the file — the SAW packet is just not
there. This lets the operator walk the angles first, parking the rig at a
random point in each, and judge the response before committing to the run.

Nothing reads the scope. The operator inspects the instrument directly, so
there is no transfer path, no plotting, and no waveform crossing the module
boundary — test_inspection_never_reads_a_waveform_back pins that, since it is
the kind of premise a later change erodes without noticing.

core/scope_inspect.py — the scope state worth looking at, which is not the
scan's state:
- plain rising-edge trigger on CH2 at 2.0 V, not the scan's logic AND of the
  laser pulse and the stage gate, so a stationary stage still triggers
- FastFrame off, SAMPLE (no averaging) — a weak or intermittent response is
  exactly what is being looked for, and averaging would hide it
- free-running (STOPAfter RUNSTop + STATE RUN) so the trace keeps updating
  while the operator looks at it
- CH1 keeps the acquisition front-end verbatim, so what is on screen is what
  a scan would record
- CH3/CH4 become bias monitors sharing one scale and position, since the
  comparison is by eye and only works if a division means the same on each.
  100 mV/div with ground 3.5 divisions below centre puts 0–700 mV on screen
  with headroom on an 8- or 10-division graticule (the signal never goes
  negative, hence moving the trace down).

core/angle_inspect.py — AngleInspector, headless and Qt-free like ScanEngine.
Points are drawn from the angle's own bounding box: Y from its actual row
positions and X uniformly across its data window, so the point is somewhere
the scan would really sample rather than merely inside the box. New Point
re-rolls without rotating, which is what separates a bad spot on the sample
from a bad angle. The stage gate is held off throughout, and the rotator goes
home on stop.

gui/inspect_bridge.py — QtAngleInspector on the existing QueueWorker base.
Inspection is click-driven rather than one long run, so the worker blocks on
its queue between commands and an open window costs nothing. BBD position
polling is suppressed while inspecting, for the same reason the scan does it:
the shared TX queue.

sc3_aui_app.py — AngleInspectWindow (angle list, prev/next, New Point) driven
off the plan currently entered in the scan panel, so it inspects exactly the
scan about to be run. Navigation locks while the stage moves. The list syncs
via itemClicked rather than currentRowChanged, so echoing the worker's
position back does not re-trigger the move it is reporting.

README picks up the new modules, and scope_burst.py which the previous merge
left out of the structure listing. 114 tests passing, ruff clean.

"""Pre-scan angle inspection: park the rig on a point and let the operator look.
A multi-angle scan can take hours, and an angle that responds poorly produces
rows that look fine in the file but carry no usable SAW packet. This drives
the rig through the same angles the scan will use, parking at a random point
inside each angle's own bounding box so the response can be judged on the
oscilloscope before committing to the run.
Headless and Qt-free, like ScanEngine: gui/inspect_bridge.py wraps it.
No waveform ever crosses this boundary. The operator reads the scope screen
directly; this module's job is only to put the hardware in the right place and
the scope in a state worth looking at (see core.scope_inspect).
