Extends the appliance endpoint that landed in the previous commit with a
time_synced field, sourced from /run/bambuddy/time-synced (the appliance's
ntp-gate.sh writes this once chronyd reports sync, or with a "warning"
marker after the 3-minute timeout). The RPi 5 has no battery-backed RTC,
so on a fresh boot the system clock is wrong until NTP catches up -- JWT
expiries and TLS certificate validity windows depend on this being right.
Exposing the gate lets the SPA render a "time not synced" indicator while
that's still true and clear it once "ok" comes through.
backend/app/core/local_config.py
New read_ntp_gate(path) function alongside read_local_toml. Three states:
"ok" chrony reported sync within the 3-minute window
"warning" 3-minute timeout elapsed without sync; user already waited
and the wizard proceeded with a degraded clock
None file absent (non-appliance install), OSError, empty content,
unknown marker, or binary garbage -- "unknown / don't gate"
Defensive read mode (errors="replace") survives non-utf8 content without
crashing. Module docstring broadened from "local.toml reader" to "small
readers for appliance-set state files".
backend/app/api/routes/system.py
/system/appliance now returns:
{hostname, timezone, locale, time_synced}
with the same no-auth posture: bootstrap surfaces (i18n init, time-sync
banner) read this before auth might be set up, and the contents are
non-secret (user-set defaults + a public sync flag). The endpoint
docstring expands to explain the RTC motivation -- otherwise the
time_synced field reads like a leftover.
