Drop the host expect dependency from the PS/2, timer, IOMMU, and USB
storage (BOT) runtime proofs. local/scripts/qemu-login-expect.py drives
the guest over serial-on-stdio with ordered expect/send steps, per-step
timeouts (matching expect's per-pattern semantics), and pass/fail markers.
It distinguishes premature QEMU death (exit 3) from genuine check failure
(exit 1) so the scripts retry external interruptions without retrying real
failures. Scripts use headless -display none -vga none (fbcond serial
mirror), a 3600s per-step timeout, and a retry loop (max 5 attempts).
All six validation scripts (xhci-irq, msix, ps2, timer, iommu,
usb-storage) booted build/<arch>/<config>/harddrive.img, which is only
produced by older make-all flows and goes stale (the Jul-17 image).
Running them against it measured the wrong tree — the same trap that
produced the false '+rb0.3.0' bootloader reading and the first hub-test
failure. Each now prefers build/<arch>/<config>.iso via -cdrom and only
falls back to harddrive.img when no ISO exists. extra.img and
usb-storage.img remain as data drives in both modes.
TLC (Twilight Commander) was missing from both ISO configs. Added
tlc = {} to [packages] in redbear-mini.toml and redbear-full.toml.
Created missing symlink: recipes/tui/tlc -> ../../local/recipes/tui/tlc.
