Cobra e15e077be8 Skip MAC rotation on active WiFi interfaces to prevent ENETDOWN
When wlan0 is the primary data interface (WiFi-only deployment), changing
its MAC via SIOCSIFHWADDR drops the AP association and puts all AF_PACKET
sockets into ENETDOWN permanently until wpa_supplicant re-associates.

- _apply_profile: skip set_mac if _eth_iface is a WiFi interface
- _apply_profile: skip WiFi set_mac if _wifi_iface == _eth_iface (same card)
- stop: mirror the same skip logic for MAC restoration

DHCP hostname + TCP stack tuning still applied for blending on WiFi-only nodes.

"""Innocuous MAC profile manager — select and apply a believable device identity.
Queries data/innocuous_macs.db for consumer device profiles (Fire TV, iPhone,
printers, etc.), sets MAC + DHCP hostname + vendor class + TCP stack params to
match the selected device. The goal: look like something that belongs on every
network.
