devices: pool-of-spaces model — drop lane, per-relay direction

A parking lot is one pool of spaces with a flexible set of entry/exit
points — no "lane". Direction is a property of each RELAY inside an access
controller; readers/cameras bind to a controller relay and inherit it.

Schema:
- drop `lane` from ledger_events, device_events, sessions
- rename lane_devices -> devices (no lane/direction columns)
- access config.relays=[{relay,direction,button?}]; reader/camera
  config.controllerId+relay binding
- fresh 0000_baseline migration (history reset; dev data was throwaway)

Signed ledger:
- remove `lane` from canonicalize(); bump signer keyId sw-hmac-v1 -> v2
  (v1 events won't verify under v2 — intentional, gated per-event by keyId)

Server:
- new device-resolve.ts (replaces lane-map.ts): relayForButton,
  relayForDevice, firstRelayByDirection, devicesByDirection
- entry-flow: button terminal -> its relay; exit/permit: reader's bound
  relay; dispatcher resolves the bound relay + inherited direction
- camera snapshots fire by direction site-wide, async, never block open
- DeviceConfig widened to nested JSON for relays[]

Web:
- wizard: no lane selector; add controllers (relay map + entry-button
  terminal) first, then bind readers/cameras/printers to a controller relay

Wiki: new entry-exit-points.md (replaces lane-direction); reworked
entry-exit-readers, parking-session, first-run-setup, device-registry,
append-only-event-chain, device-events; removed stale lane/LaneMap mentions.

# Entry / Exit Points (pool-of-spaces model)
A parking lot is **one pool of spaces** with a flexible set of **entry points** and **exit
points** — any number of each, in any combination (1 in + 1 out, 1 in + 2 out, 2 in + 1 out, …).
There is **no "lane"** concept anywhere in the system (dropped 2026-06-16 — see below).
## Direction lives on the relay, not the controller
An access controller (e.g. a [[dingtian-relay]] board) has **several relays** — each relay opens
one barrier. Direction is a property of **each relay**, declared in the controller's config:
```jsonc
// access `devices` row — one Dingtian board
config: {
host: "192.168.1.100",
relays: [
{ relay: 1, direction: "entry", button: 1 }, // entry barrier; entry button on input 1
{ relay: 2, direction: "exit" } // exit barrier; opened by a reader, no button
]
}
```
- `direction`: `entry` | `exit` | `both` (`both` = one barrier/relay serving in and out).
- `button`: the **input terminal** the transient **entry button** is wired to. Only entry/both
relays have one. Absent = no button at that barrier (subscriber/reader-driven only).
The four real layouts all fall out of this:
| Layout | Controllers | Relays |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1 barrier, both directions | 1 | `{relay:1, both, button:1}` |
| 2 barriers, 1 board | 1 | `{relay:1, entry, button:1}`, `{relay:2, exit}` |
| 2 barriers far apart | 2 | board A `{relay:1, entry}`, board B `{relay:1, exit}` |
| 1 entry + 2 exit | 3 | A entry; B, C each exit |
## Readers / cameras BIND to a relay
A reader or camera points at the barrier it physically sits at, via its config:
```jsonc
config: { ...readerConfig, controllerId: "<access devices.id>", relay: 2 }
```
Its **direction is inherited** from that relay. So an exit read opens **exactly that relay** —
no ambiguity even with multiple exit barriers ("the relay at that reader", decided 2026-06-16).
Binding is optional: an unbound device falls back to a `config.direction` + the first relay
site-wide of that direction (keeps the single-barrier case trivial). LPR is a snapshot sink —
an ANPR service ([[opencv-anpr-service]]) POSTs the plate as a `plate` read to the reader
endpoint, flowing through the same dispatcher.
## Resolution (one module: `apps/server/src/device-resolve.ts`)
- **Button press** → `relayForButton(controllerId, terminal)` → the entry relay whose `button`
matches → entry flow → `pulseOpen(relay)`.
- **Reader/permit/LPR read** → `relayForDevice(reader)` → the bound relay → `pulseOpen(relay)`;
direction inherited.
- **Snapshots** → `devicesByDirection("camera", dir)` → every camera serving that direction.
A directional barrier that contradicts the car's open-session state (an exit barrier scanned by a
car not inside, or an entry barrier by a car already in) is a wrong-barrier / [[anti-passback]]
refusal. A `both` relay defers to session state.
## The flows
| Flow | Trigger | Opens |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Transient entry | entry **button** press | the entry relay (button-mapped) → ticket prints |
| Transient exit | voucher scan at exit reader | the exit relay (reader-bound), if paid+grace |
| Subscriber entry | QR/RFID/plate at entry reader | the entry relay (reader-bound), if permit valid |
| Subscriber exit | QR/RFID/plate at exit reader | the exit relay (reader-bound), if permit valid |
Every open also fires a [[camera snapshot|append-only-event-chain]] (async, never blocks the open).
## Why no lane
"Lane" was a leftover from a rows-of-gates mental model. It added nothing here:
- **Occupancy** is a site-wide fold over the ledger (entries − exits); it never grouped by lane.
- **Device grouping** is now done by the reader→relay binding, far more precisely than a lane key.
- **Anti-fraud** doesn't use it — the signed chain, the "open must match a signed event" check,
and [[reconciliation]] all work on *what happened*, not *which gate*. The relay's direction
already catches an exit firing an entry barrier, better than a lane number would.
Dropping it removed `lane` from `ledger_events`, `device_events`, `sessions`, and the device
table (renamed `lane_devices` → `devices`). Because `lane` was part of the **signed canonical
form**, this is a versioned change: the canonical array no longer includes lane, and the signer
keyId bumped `sw-hmac-v1` → `sw-hmac-v2`. v1 events won't verify under v2 — intentional, gated by
each event's stored `keyId` (done pre-deployment, on throwaway data, so zero real cost). See
[[append-only-event-chain]].
## Camera snapshots (evidence, not a gate)
Captured **after** the barrier opens, **never awaited** — a camera failure can't delay or block an
open (the signed ledger is the decision). Stored as a **BLOB in the `snapshots` table** (single
backed-up DB, nothing scattered on disk), in its own table so hot telemetry scans don't drag image
bytes and images prune independently. Linked to the signed `vehicle_entry/exit` by `identity`.
Served read-only via `GET /api/snapshots/:id`. **Retention is unresolved** — see [[open-questions]].
