Part A — source-route origination policy:
- Gate route application (BLESourceRouteOriginationPolicy): only packets we
author, directed at a single peer, with TTL headroom, whose recipient is
not directly connected. Relays no longer attach routes to (and re-sign)
packets they merely forward.
- Version-gate paths: MeshTopologyTracker records the highest protocol
version observed per peer; BFS routes require every intermediate hop and
the recipient to be v2-observed, capped at 4 intermediate hops.
- Degrade on failure: BLESourceRouteFailureCache marks a routed send that
sees no inbound traffic from the recipient within 10s as failed and floods
for 60s before retrying routes.
Part B — REQUEST_SYNC fragmentIdFilter (TLV 0x06):
- Requester: BLEFragmentAssemblyBuffer reports stalled broadcast
reassemblies (no new fragment for 5s, retried at most every 10s); the
maintenance pass sends a types=fragment REQUEST_SYNC naming the stalled
8-byte fragment stream IDs to each connected peer.
- Responder: GossipSyncManager restricts the fragment diff to exactly the
named streams, bypassing the since-cursor while the GCS filter still
excludes pieces the requester holds; RSR/TTL-0/rate-limit semantics
unchanged and REQUEST_SYNC stays link-local.
- Bounds: at most 60 IDs per request (60*17-1 = 1019 bytes <= the 1024-byte
decoder cap); oversized 0x06 values are ignored, not fatal.
Docs: SOURCE_ROUTING.md gains the iOS origination policy (§8);
REQUEST_SYNC_MANAGER.md documents 0x05/0x06 as implemented.

* feat: Implement Request Sync Manager (V2 Sync)
- Add RequestSyncManager to track and attribute sync requests
- Update BitchatPacket and BinaryProtocol to support IS_RSR flag (0x10)
- Update RequestSyncPacket with new TLV fields (sinceTimestamp, fragmentIdFilter)
- Update GossipSyncManager to use unicast sync requests and mark responses as RSR
- Update BLEService to enforce timestamp validation for normal packets and exempt valid RSRs
- Add documentation for the new sync manager mechanism
* fix: Resolve compilation errors in V2 Sync implementation
- Remove duplicate restartGossipManager in BLEService
- Add missing TransportConfig constants for sync
- Add 'sync' log category to BitLogger
- Add missing BitLogger import in GossipSyncManager
* fix: Update tests for V2 Sync changes
- Add requestSyncManager parameter to GossipSyncManager init in tests
- Implement getConnectedPeers stub in RecordingDelegate
- Remove unused variable warning in SubscriptionRateLimitTests
