GET /traffic/511 serves a bbox slice of the statewide 511NY camera and event
feeds from an in-memory cache (cameras 1h, events 2m TTL, fetched lazily) --
public data, so no Firestore writes. A failed refresh keeps the last good data
and reports the error; a schema change (nothing parses) is an error, not an
empty layer. Frontend: opt-in "DOT Cameras" and "Traffic Events" overlays that
fetch only while shown, with an on-map notice when the feed is down or stale.
NY511_API_KEY is optional in config (the API answers without one today; the
terms require a registered key).
