The upload loop previously always slept the full 30s UPLOAD_INTERVAL
between batches, even when a full batch was just sent (meaning more
rows were likely still queued). With GPS/OBD rows logged every 5s
locally, an offline/stale device could build up a large backlog that
took a very long time to drain at 100 rows/30s.
- Bump TRACKING_BATCH_SIZE 100 -> 500 (cuts round-trips per backlog).
- Only sleep the full UPLOAD_INTERVAL once actually caught up (a
short batch came back); while a full batch keeps coming back, drain
back-to-back with a short CATCHUP_INTERVAL (1s) instead.
- server/app.py: add a sane MAX_TRACKING_BATCH_POINTS (5000) cap on
the tracking/batch endpoint as a defensive guard against a runaway
client, independent of the Pi's own batch size.
Verified against the real deployed server: a simulated 1250-row
backlog now drains in 3 batches (~0.35s server round-trip time) instead
of 13 batches spread across ~6.5 minutes of idle sleeping.

- app_sql.py: add UPLOADED column + migration on tracking table, add
settings and dashcam_uploads tables, add helpers for unsent-row
queries, marking rows uploaded, and dashcam upload dedupe tracking.
- app_upload.py: new background upload client. Periodically batches
unsent tracking rows to POST /api/v1/tracking/batch and uploads new
dashcam files (sha256-verified) to POST /api/v1/dashcam/upload, with
exponential backoff on failure. Exposes get_status() and a
dashcam-upload enable/disable toggle backed by the settings table.
- app.py: start the upload client thread at startup, add
GET /api/upload/status and POST /api/upload/dashcam_toggle routes.
- dash.html/dash.js: add a "Remote server upload" card with upload
status and a toggle switch to pause dashcam video uploads while
trip/GPS log uploads keep running (per user request - useful on a
slow/metered connection).
- db/upload_creds.env: new gitignore-exempted template (mirrors
db/creds.env) for YARIS_SERVER_URL/YARIS_DEVICE_NAME/YARIS_API_KEY.
- requirements.txt: add requests.
Tested against the real deployed unraid server: tracking batch upload
+ dedupe, dashcam upload + dedupe, and toggle-off correctly pausing
dashcam uploads while tracking uploads continue. Also verified the
full Flask app imports/runs cleanly and the new API routes + dash.html
toggle render correctly in a headless browser.

Squashed rewrite of the project revival work (replaces prior history on this
branch to remove personal data that had been accidentally committed - real
LAN IP, GPS coordinates, home WiFi SSID, and phone model). See PLAN.md for
full phase-by-phase details. Summary:
- Phase 2: adapt app_obd.py for a USB OBD-II adapter (was Bluetooth-only),
auto-detect /dev/ttyUSB*, fix several pre-existing crash bugs.
- Phase 3/4: make the web UI work fully offline (vendored Socket.IO/Leaflet/
Chart.js/FontAwesome, offline map tile downloader script, live GPS marker
tracking fix).
- Phase 5: systemd deployment/autostart on the Pi.
- Phase 6: WiFi hotspot mode via NetworkManager (auto-switch between home
WiFi and a local AP for in-car web UI access), mDNS hostname + port 80
redirect so the UI is reachable at a plain hostname with no port number.
- Phase 7: fix app_db.py/app_sql.py bugs, wire up local SQLite trip logging.
- Phase 8: brand-agnostic USB dashcam file retrieval (lsblk transport-based
detection, works with any dashcam brand/folder layout).
- Rewritten readme.md with a proper project overview.
