CoderNemesis 65990873ad feat(map): deep-link the route path picker by observer or All view (#2376)
## Summary

The map route deep link (`#/map?packet=<hash>[&obs=<id>]`) always opened
in the canonical-path view. Two optional query params now choose the
path picker's starting view, so a shared link shows exactly what the
sender meant.

| Param | Effect |
|---|---|
| `paths=all` | Opens the picker's **All** view (every unique path), the
same as clicking **All** |
| `observer=<pubkey>` | Full public key or a hex prefix of 8+
characters, case-insensitive. Picks that observer's **earliest**
observation (by timestamp, then id), makes it the canonical route and
isolates its path row, the same as clicking the row. "Back to packet"
then links to that observation. |

Examples:

```
#/map?packet=974ad4ecefbe3761&paths=all
#/map?packet=974ad4ecefbe3761&observer=a1b2c3d4
```

When params are combined, `obs=` wins over `observer=`, and `observer=`
wins over `paths=all`. An unknown or malformed observer falls back to
the current default view and logs a console warning.

## Changes

- `public/route-view-utils.js`: two new pure helpers.
- `resolveDeepLinkObservation(observations, params)` picks the
observation and the initial view.
- `pathGroupKey(rawHops, filterHops)` is the path picker's grouping key.
It was written out twice in `route-view.js` and now lives in one place,
which keeps the deep link and the picker rows in sync.
- `public/map.js`: `loadRouteFromDeepLink` uses the helper and passes
`initialPathView` through `drawPacketRouteMulti` to the renderer.
- `public/route-view.js`: the picker count and rows use `pathGroupKey`.
`sidebar._applyPathView` applies the view through the existing All and
row click handlers, in the frame after the route's initial fit.

## Performance

This doesn't touch a hot path. The work is one pass over a single
packet's observations (tens at most) plus a scan of the picker rows, and
it runs once per deep-link load. It adds no API calls.

## Config / customizer

No new configurable values.

## Tests

- New unit suite `tests/unit/test-map-deeplink-path-params.js` (29
checks). It covers prefix vs full key, case, short/non-hex keys,
earliest-observation choice with tie-break, the precedence rules,
`pathGroupKey`, and the source wiring.
- `tests/unit/test-issue-1633-hide-1byte-hops.js` replayed a copy of the
key logic. It now tests the real `pathGroupKey`.
- New Playwright suite `tests/e2e/test-map-deeplink-path-params-e2e.js`
(5 checks) on the seeded #1486 packet. It's registered in
`scripts/non-unit-tests.json` and CI shard 3. With the `route-view.js`
change removed, 3 of its 5 checks fail.
- Local runs against the CI-prepared fixture: `test-all.sh` passes.
Route-map a11y E2E 20/20, map mobile E2E 3/3, `test-e2e-playwright.js`
149/152 (3 skipped by the fixture, 0 failed).

## Browser validation

Checked in a browser against a local server, using a scratch copy of the
fixture that gives the seeded packet multi-hop paths through real GPS
nodes. One observer had two observations, and the API listed the later
one first.
- `observer=<prefix>` picked that observer's earliest observation and
drew only its path, with numbered markers and the map fitted to it.
- `paths=all` drew the same picture as clicking **All** by hand.
