The WebConfig POST/result/reboot/stop batch state machine was the largest
remaining Phase 6 coverage gap (all inline in WebConfigServer.cpp, coupled to
AsyncWebServer/ArduinoJson and untestable on host). Extract its decision + timing
CORE into a pure, dependency-free spec mirroring MQTTLifecycle.h:
- src/helpers/WebConfigBatch.h: classifyPost (replay/busy/accept/no-changes with
the DONE-vs-PENDING reqid asymmetry), drain pacing (signed 25 ms gate, sticky
all_ok, 30 s reboot fallback), result classification + arm-once 3 s reboot,
signed-wrap-safe reboot-due / isRebootPending, and stop gating (finalize when
refs==0, warn-once, never force teardown). Constants verbatim from the source.
- test/test_webconfig_batch/: full host coverage incl. exact boundaries and
millis() rollover.
Spec-first, exactly like Phase 4's MQTTLifecycle.h: this is NOT yet wired into
WebConfigServer.cpp. That server is hardware-tuned (debugged against real iOS
captive-portal + HTTP-caching + route-ordering behavior), so making the spec
load-bearing is a deliberately separate, hardware-validated follow-up.
Faithfulness independently reviewed against WebConfigServer.cpp; native suite
green (14 dirs). No production behavior change.
