Let Wake only light the screen, and open ESP Screens without a chosen screen (0.2.65)

Browse Source 
Wake from Home Assistant counted as a tap: it reset last_touch_ms, the one
clock that standby and Back to page 1 both read. An automation pressing Wake
on every motion therefore held an open card or page 2 up for as long as
someone moved in the room. Back to page 1 now has its own clock, last_use_ms,
written only by the boot, the touchscreen triggers, open_settings from Home
Assistant and the UI self test. Wake, an alert ending and Auto standby on
still restart the standby time, and Wake still brings back the brightness and
the second hand.

The rule moved from the interval into the script back_to_page_1_when_due.
Wake runs it right after waking a dimmed screen, so a page whose time ran out
during standby lights up on page 1 instead of jumping there a second later.

ESP Screens no longer opens the first screen by itself. Until one is picked
the page says "Choose a screen", and with no screens it still offers the
install; both cards start hidden so neither flashes while the page loads.

Checked with 48 host API checks per board, both ESP32 builds, 314 Python and
16 C++ tests, and the editor on the demo home. Firmware 0.2.56.

## 0.2.65 (firmware 0.2.56)
Wake lights the screen, and ESP Screens lets you pick the screen.
- **Wake is for the light.** The **Wake** button in Home Assistant still turns a screen in standby up to its normal brightness, brings back the second hand of an analog clock and starts the standby time again. It no longer counts as a touch for **Back to page 1**: that keeps counting from the last time someone touched the screen. An automation that presses Wake on every motion used to keep an open card or page 2 up for as long as someone moved in the room; now the screen goes back to page 1 on time.
- **Straight to page 1 after standby.** When the Back to page 1 time ran out while the screen was in standby, Wake lights it up on page 1 at once, instead of showing the old page for a moment first. With time left, the page stays.
- **Only a touch counts.** An alert that closes by itself and turning Auto standby on also start the standby time again, but not the Back to page 1 time. Opening the settings page from Home Assistant (`open_settings`) still counts, so that page stays open.
- **ESP Screens opens without a chosen screen.** It used to open the first screen in the list; now you pick one. Until then the page says **Choose a screen**, and with no screens yet it still offers to install one.
- The Claude skill describes the new Wake. Install it again from Settings → Claude to get it.
- Needs firmware 0.2.56 for Wake: press **Update** on the screen. The ESP Screens change works right after updating the app. Includes everything from 0.2.64.
## 0.2.64 (firmware 0.2.55)
A long alert title stays on its own line.
