 * \file
 * \brief pico9918-core - config byte layout
 *
 * Copyright (c) 2021 Troy Schrapel
 *
 * This code is licensed under the MIT license
 *
 * https://github.com/visrealm/pico9918-core
 *
 * Purpose: THE single authoritative layout of the 256-byte config block,
 * plus the portable semantics over it (field descriptors, validation,
 * defaults, per-version migration, and the VDP-side apply).
 *
 * This header owns the config-byte ABI. It is shared by:
 *   - the library (core reset/write paths, GPU config-action keys)
 *   - the PICO9918 firmware (flash storage, apply, validation)
 *   - the configurator (generated from this header)
 *
 * Nothing else may declare a PICO9918_CONF_* byte index. If a new byte is needed, it
 * is claimed here and nowhere else.
 *
 * This header must stay free of host dependencies - no PICO9918_* macros, no
 * board headers, no SDK includes. Version numbers are host-owned and always
 * arrive as parameters, never as compile-time macros.
 *
 * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * ABI FREEZE
 * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * The following bytes are deployed in flash on real units. Their indices are
 * frozen and must NEVER be reassigned to a different meaning - doing so makes
 * existing units come up with corrupted settings:
 *
 *   0-6, 8-14, 16-20, 128-160, 200-204, 252-255
 *
 * Free for future claims: 7, 15 (claimed below), 21-127, 161-199, 205-245.
 *
 * Byte 7 is deliberately left unused: it falls in the "not settable via
 * registers" identity/version band (0-6) that the configurator may treat as
 * reserved, and the firmware's version-match load path does not clear it.
 *
 * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * CONFIGURATOR MENU-SENTINEL BAND: 246-255
 * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * The configurator uses 246-255 as menu-sentinel IDs in the SAME numeric
 * space as these config indices (CONF_MENU_OUTPUT = 246 .. CONF_MENU_EMPTY =
 * 255). The overlap at 252-255 is deliberate and already shipping. Do not
 * claim 246-251 for a real config byte without first checking the
 * configurator's sentinel list - a collision there breaks menu dispatch.
