The Starlink RTL8153 gets a declarative NM profile in 50-van-wan.yaml
(replaces the auto 'Wired connection 1') with a 192.168.100.1/32 link route,
so the dish's management address stays reachable from the router and — via
the existing !br0 masquerade — from the van LAN, regardless of which WAN
holds the default route.
New Cockpit "Starlink" card queries the dish's gRPC API (:9200, get_status
via grpcurl — not packaged in apt, deploy.sh warns when missing) inside the
existing single batched spawn: online/obstructed/outage pill, alerts,
uptime, sw version, PoP latency, down/up throughput, obstruction %.
Sentinels distinguish adapter-absent / no-grpcurl / dish-unreachable.
Gotcha captured while cutting over: a WAN profile without ipv4.route-metric
makes NM re-assert its DHCP default (metric ~101) against van-failover's
enforce_route pruning every cycle; the profile metric must match (failover's
set_profile_metric does this on health transitions).
