Robust interface detection — retry fallback chain for headless boot (#206 )

Fixes interface auto-detection failures on Pi Zero 2W where wlan0 doesn't exist
at boot. Implementation:

- Added detect_interface_with_retry() function with 3x retry fallback chain
- Config-supplied interface preferred, then /proc/net/route, then UP interface
- Exponential backoff: 5s, 10s, 20s delays between retries
- Filters excluded prefixes: lo, tailscale*, wg*, tun*, docker*, veth*, br-*
- Used in Engine.__init__(), PacketCapture.start(), MacManager.start()
- Full test coverage: 10 tests for detection, backoff, filtering

Addresses issue where network stack initializes after boot and interfaces
become available after 5-10 second delay.

Add Phase 1 utility modules: crypto, networking, logging, stealth, resource, permissions, config_loader, bettercap_api

9 files in utils/ providing the shared infrastructure layer:
- crypto: AES-256-GCM file encryption, argon2id/PBKDF2 key derivation, HKDF network unlock, LUKS container management
- networking: interface detection, MAC/IP helpers, BPF compilation via libpcap ctypes, gratuitous ARP, VLAN creation
- logging: encrypted log writer (BBLogger) with rotation, per-module files, stdout suppression for stealth
- stealth: process rename via prctl, cmdline spoofing, sysctl helpers, timestomping, core dump disable
- resource: hardware tier detection (OPi Zero 3 / Pi Zero / generic) via /proc/device-tree and cpuinfo, resource monitoring
- permissions: root/capability checks via capget ctypes, privilege dropping, directory permission enforcement
- config_loader: YAML merge hierarchy (hardware_tiers -> bigbrother -> modules -> stealth -> CLI), tier auto-detection, SIGHUP reload
- bettercap_api: REST client with per-session random credentials, session/events/command methods
