Secondary SDR priority: row state shows "Waiting for SDR" instead of an error when the container/checkin is unreachable #187

QA review of feat/secondary-sdr-priority (server-26 3cbb082, node-26 9b6c64f), non-blocking.

Both dashboards fall back to an empty running list when the true signal is "unknown/unreachable", not "nothing running yet":

  • Client/drb-edge-node/app/templates/index.html:583 sdrRunning = d.running || []; then :551 computes state as enabled && !running -> 'Waiting for SDR' for every row, even when d.running === null (secondary-sdr container down). The summary line at :590 does say "Secondary SDR service is not responding", but each row still reads as a normal, self-resolving wait rather than an error.
  • Server/drb-frontend/components/SecondarySdrPriority.tsx:26 const running = node.secondary_sdr_running ?? [] has the same conflation when a node's checkin has never included secondary_sdr_running (pre-feature firmware) — every enabled row reads "Waiting for SDR" forever with no way to distinguish that from a genuinely spare-constrained wait.

Not blocking (no dead control, no false claim of success) but worth a distinct visual/text state (e.g. "Unknown" / "Service unreachable") per row so an admin doesn't wait on a row that will never resolve.
