release: rigplane-core 2.10.8 — freq/mode display tracks radio during external CAT (#1219)

[morozsm]

Summary

Bumps rigplane to 2.10.8. This is a single-fix patch release on top of 2.10.7.

What changed

Fix — operating-UI frequency/mode display stuck during an external CAT session (#1219)

During a WSJT-X / external-CAT session the display could remain pinned to the last value tuned via the Pro UI while the radio was actually on a different frequency. Root cause: the optimistic command overlay was never displaced because the readback poller is paused for the duration of the external-CAT session.

The optimistic overlay is now suppressed during an external-CAT session, so the display tracks the radio's real frequency/mode from CI-V readback. Normal Pro-dial responsiveness is unchanged when no external-CAT session is active.

### Fixed

- **Operating-UI frequency/mode display stuck during an external CAT session.**
  During a WSJT-X / external-CAT session the display could remain pinned to the
  last value tuned via the Pro UI while the radio was actually on a different
  frequency, because the optimistic command overlay was never displaced (the
  readback poller is paused for the session). The optimistic overlay is now
  suppressed during an external-CAT session, so the display tracks the radio's
  real frequency/mode from CI-V readback. Normal Pro-dial responsiveness is
  unchanged when no external-CAT session is active. (#1219)

Boundary

open-core — frequency display reconciliation during external-CAT is a generic radio-control library concern; no proprietary Pro logic.

Verification

• uv run ruff check . — clean
• uv run ruff format --check . — 4 pre-existing files flagged (not in this diff; present on base commit)
• Fix-specific tests from commit cad0dab3 pass with the fix in place
• git diff --stat: docs/CHANGELOG.md +6 -0, pyproject.toml 2.10.7→2.10.8, uv.lock 2.10.7→2.10.8

Publishing

This PR, once merged and tagged v2.10.8, will publish rigplane==2.10.8 to PyPI via the standard release workflow.

Agent Review: PASS

Reviewed at head cd1409af (branch codex/freq-overlay-external-cat-reconcile).

Confirmation checks:

(a) Fix code byte-identical to independently reviewed cad0dab3.
git diff cad0dab3 cd1409af -- src/ tests/ is empty. The freq-overlay-during-external-CAT fix (_optimistic_observations guard + two regression tests) is unchanged from the prior independent PASS review.

(b) Release commit adds only metadata — no code/test churn.
cd1409af (release: rigplane-core 2.10.8) touches only:

• pyproject.toml: version 2.10.7 → 2.10.8
• uv.lock: rigplane self-entry 2.10.7 → 2.10.8 (no unrelated dependency changes)
• docs/CHANGELOG.md: new [2.10.8] — 2026-06-20 section accurately describing the freq/mode display fix during external-CAT sessions, referencing issue chore(frontend): update ESLint no-restricted-imports — assume v2 layering only #1219

(c) 2.10.8 is fresh.

• git tag --list 'v2.10.8' → empty (tag not yet created)
• PyPI rigplane releases: 2.10.8 absent, 2.10.7 present — no duplicate publish risk

(d) All required CI gates green at cd1409af:

• quick — pass (1m35s)
• grep-gate — pass
• state-types-gate — pass
• consumer-contracts-gate — pass

Ready to merge once Agent Review Gate flips to pass on this comment.
