Add step 1 covering Reticulum setup: LAN works automatically, for
other transports generate the example config with rnsd --exampleconfig
and configure the appropriate interface. Fixes missing instructions
that caused bridges not to discover each other on fresh installs.
Standardise on uv throughout.

Delete seed.py and cmd_seed — managing a separate radicle-node process
is radicle configuration, not this project's job. Simplify cmd_setup
to check only bridge prerequisites (rad, radicle-node, RNS, identity,
localhost listen). Update README prerequisites to cover all four user
types (from scratch, Radicle only, Reticulum only, both) with inline
install hints for each missing piece.

Remove the "two modes" framing and always-on seed quickstart; seed
setup is standard radicle-node configuration, not part of this
codebase. Remove --lora references and dead commands. Keep quickstart,
interface config, and architecture note.

Switch bridge TCP↔RNS tunnel from fire-and-forget RNS.Packet to
RNS.Buffer over RNS.Channel, which provides ordered reliable delivery
with automatic retransmission. A dropped packet no longer silently
corrupts Radicle's Noise session.
Delete adapter.py, link.py, messages.py (and their tests) — these
implemented a parallel peer-discovery and binary gossip layer that
duplicates what Radicle handles natively over the bridge session.
Remove the cmd_node, cmd_ping, cmd_peers CLI commands that used them.
Remove --lora flag: Reticulum caps announce bandwidth at 2% per
interface automatically, so application-level duty-cycle management
is unnecessary. --announce-retry-delays remains for tuning startup
timing.

- Remove "Why:" line and air-gapped/QR section (those modules were deleted)
- Remove stale commands: sync, bundle create/apply/info, qr-encode/decode
- Add seed mode quick-start and setup instructions
- Add gossip relay section with delta broadcast note
- Add --lora flag to all command flag tables
- Update architecture diagram: per-bridge port routing, gossip relay, 383 B MTU note
- Update module list: bridge/gossip/seed/adapter (remove sync/adaptive/git_bundle/qr)
- Update test count: 149

bridge.py:
- Fix _on_tunnel_opened/_on_tunnel_closed instance attrs shadowing methods
of the same name, causing NoneType-not-callable on every tunnel close
- Fix auto_seed not firing on --connect path: NID registration now triggers
whenever the NID is first learned from an announce, not only on is_new
- Move nid_is_new check inside _remote_bridges_lock to prevent double
rad-node-connect on concurrent announces
- Distinguish link CLOSED vs timeout in link establishment log message
- Add startup re-announce loop so peers that start slightly later are
discovered without manual --connect; delays are configurable
- Add announce_retry_delays parameter (default 5,15,30s; use 60,300,900s
on LoRa to respect duty cycle limits)
cli.py:
- Expose --announce-retry-delays flag with validation and helpful error
README.md:
- Rewrite setup section based on real end-to-end test (two machines,
radicle-node listen config, rad remote add workflow)
- Remove --connect and rad node connect from required steps; both are
now automatic via auto-discovery and auto-seed
- Add LoRa duty cycle note for announce delays
- Add full git workflow: init, push, clone, fetch across mesh
