The Console could look empty if the wallet produced few events. Make it useful
in every state and remove a cross-platform footgun:
- Add a live status header read straight from the controller (connected /
connecting / disconnected, sync %, and the last open error) — independent of the
diagnostics event log, so the Console always shows the current connection +
wallet-open state even when the log is sparse.
- Move LiteDiagnostics::instance() into a single .cpp so there is exactly one
instance across the binary, rather than relying on the linker folding an
inline-function static across translation units (a known fragility, especially
on mingw/Windows — the most likely cause of a stuck-empty event log there).
Verified the writer and reader share one instance on Linux; builds clean for
full-node, lite, and Windows cross-compile; tests pass.

The lite variant had no visibility into why a wallet failed to open — just a
"disconnected" spinner. Add a lite-only Console tab (full-node keeps its RPC
console) that shows a live diagnostic log.
- LiteDiagnostics: a small thread-safe, bounded ring buffer (header-only). The
controller writes to it from its background threads: each failover server
attempt and result, wallet open/create/restore outcomes, sync start, and
blocked-open reasons. The App logs controller (re)builds with the preferred
server.
- lite_console_tab: a terminal-styled, read-only view of the log (newest at the
bottom, error/success lines coloured) with Clear / Copy / Auto-scroll. Reachable
even when the wallet is locked (it's diagnostics, no secrets). Registered as
NavPage::LiteConsole, gated lite-only via WalletUiSurface::LiteConsole.
A unit test drives an open-with-failover and asserts the log records the
connection attempt and the successful open. Built clean for full-node, lite, and
Windows cross-compile.
