Merge pull request #83 from CoMPaTech/v6

Introduce basic v6 support:

## New Features

- Adds AirOS 6 support (login/status), 
- Migrate towards a shared multi‑firmware base
- Add a firmware-detection helper.

## Bug Fixes

- Interfaces accept optional MTU; improved error handling and redacted logging of sensitive data.
