Miles WardandClaude Opus 4.8 1eb41288c3 v0.4.69: PNG boot-menu background (iPXE built from source), NFS AUTH_SYS, FleetDM logo
Three things, headlined by the long-blocked graphical PXE menu.

## 1. Graphical PXE boot background — the iVentoy feature, finally

iVentoy paints a PNG background on the PXE screen using stock iPXE
built with CONSOLE_FRAMEBUFFER + IMAGE_PNG + CONSOLE_CMD; the public
iPXE binaries omit those, so `console --picture` is a no-op on them.
We now build our own iPXE from upstream with that thin config delta
(deploy/ipxe/local/{general,console}.h).

The 8-release blocker was cc1 segfaulting when an amd64 gcc ran under
QEMU emulation on the arm64 build host. Fix: a new `ipxe-build`
Dockerfile stage pinned to $BUILDPLATFORM (native arch — no emulation)
that cross-compiles x86_64 iPXE with CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-linux-gnu-.
The compiler runs native and emits x86_64. Validated end-to-end:
png.o + fbcon.o + pixbuf.o all compile and link (confirmed via the
linked-ELF symbol table, not just strings), ~112s, no segfault. Host
tools needed libc6-dev (dropped by --no-install-recommends; without
it the native host compile falls through to iPXE's freestanding
headers and dies on bits/stdint.h — fixed).

Server side:
- pxe_logo.rs is now a full-screen background compositor: a dark field
  (matching the WebUI theme) with the operator's uploaded logo across
  the top, or — with no upload — a default OpenPXE rainbow disc drawn
  with pure pixel math (no font/SVG deps). Always 1024x768 (iPXE
  doesn't scale; this is the universal mode). WebP/JPEG/GIF/PNG in,
  PNG out (iPXE only eats PNG).
- /branding/pxe-logo always returns a PNG now (default when no logo,
  default when SVG) so the menu always has a background.
- render_menu uses `console --picture … --top 290 || console`: paints
  the background and reserves the logo band on PNG-capable binaries
  (x86_64 UEFI), cleanly falls back to text on the others. The ASCII
  wordmark is GONE.

Only x86_64 UEFI is built from source (host-arch-agnostic cross build);
BIOS/i386/arm64 keep upstream-fetched no-PNG binaries + text fallback.
Modern clients are overwhelmingly x86_64 UEFI.

## 2. NFS AUTH_SYS credential — fixes NFS3ERR_ACCES

v0.4.68's privileged-port fix got past MNT3ERR_ACCES (mount); operators
then hit NFS3ERR_ACCES on READDIR because nfs3_client defaults to
AUTH_NONE and virtually every server exports sec=sys. We now present an
AUTH_UNIX credential (uid 0 / gid 0): no_root_squash servers treat us
as root, root_squash servers map us to anon which reads any
world-readable ISO share. Kept fixed (no UI knob) to stay dead-simple.
Hint updated: a remaining NFS3ERR_ACCES is now a server-side
permission/squash issue, not IP/auth-flavor.

## 3. FleetDM-style full-width logo (top-left)

When a custom logo is uploaded the sidebar header drops the bundled
mark + "OpenPXE" wordmark and lets the logo span the header
(left-aligned, capped 200x50, contain). Rendered server-side via a
brand-class in index_html (has_custom_logo) so there's no flash of the
default. The bundled-default case is unchanged.

Tests: 164 passing. clippy -D warnings clean. iPXE build stage
validated in isolation before the full image build.

Miles WardandClaude Opus 4.7 1419309a2d v0.4.61: asset cache fix, PNG-enabled iPXE, composed PXE logo
Two real issues v0.4.6 left on the table:

Asset caching:
- index.html now interpolates the running OpenPXE version into every
  asset URL as `?v=<version>` (app.css, app.js, logo.svg). Combined
  with `Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate` on the asset
  handlers, browsers and intermediary proxies are forced to fetch
  fresh on every upgrade. Without this, last release's bundled JS
  kept serving the old UI even after the operator pulled the new
  image — invisible to anyone who only checks the version chip in
  the footer (which is dynamic).
- The Cache-Control header is also applied to logo.svg and loader.svg
  so a logo upload reflects immediately rather than after a hard
  refresh.

Real-image PXE menu logo (matches iVentoy now):
- New Dockerfile stage `ipxe-build` clones the iPXE source and
  compiles all four binaries (undionly.kpxe, snponly.efi for
  x86_64/i386, snponly.efi for arm64 via gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu) with
  IMAGE_PNG + CONSOLE_FRAMEBUFFER + CONSOLE_VESAFB enabled. Replaces
  the boot.ipxe.org fetch — those binaries are built without PNG
  support, which is why v0.4.6's `console --picture` line silently
  no-op'd.
- `iso-store::pxe_logo::compose_pxe_logo` decodes any operator upload
  (PNG / JPEG / WebP / GIF), downscales-to-fit if larger than
  600×200, and pastes it onto a transparent 1024×768 canvas
  centered horizontally with a 64-pixel top margin. iPXE paints the
  result at 1:1 on the typical VESA framebuffer, giving the
  iVentoy-style centered-logo look regardless of the operator's
  source dimensions.
- GET /branding/pxe-logo now returns the composed PNG. wimboot still
  fetches from ipxe/wimboot's GitHub release (separately signed).
- Dropped the ASCII OpenPXE wordmark from render_menu — once the
  real image paints, the banner would duplicate it visually. iPXE
  builds without PNG (none of ours after this release, but a third-
  party undionly might) simply show the menu without a logo, which
  is the right graceful-degradation outcome.

Quality:
- 142 tests passing (was 138 in v0.4.6): +4 pxe_logo unit tests
  covering canvas dimensions, centered-top placement, oversize
  downscale, and unsupported-bytes error handling; existing
  integration tests updated to verify the 1024×768 IHDR header from
  the composed PNG instead of round-tripping the raw upload.
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets clean.
- Image dependency: `image = "0.25"` with only `png/jpeg/webp/gif`
  features enabled. No new transitive C deps.
