Summary

Removes hardcoded upload_port from platformio.ini and replaces it with automatic detection via a new ID? serial command.

Changes

Firmware:

main.cpp: ID? → responds SylDa_Server
client.cpp: ID? → responds SylDa_Client

Script: tools/pio_upload_port.py (POST-script)

Scans /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Espressif_* for ESP32 ports
1 ESP32 → use directly (fast path)
2+ ESP32s → query ID? on each, match with expected identity
No match (first flash) → prompt user to pick a port
Uses env.AddPreAction("upload", callback) — only runs on upload target
Requires pyserial (graceful fallback if missing)

platformio.ini:

Removed upload_port from both environments
Added post:tools/pio_upload_port.py to extra_scripts

Closes #11

- Add ID? command to firmware: server responds 'SylDa_Server', client 'SylDa_Client'
- Add tools/pio_upload_port.py POST-script that queries connected ESP32s
- Remove hardcoded upload_port from platformio.ini
- Script logic: 1 ESP32 → use directly, 2+ → ID? query, no match → prompt user
- Requires pyserial for serial queries (graceful fallback if missing)
