Added comprehensive support for VRS (Virtual Radar Server) JSON format
as a simpler alternative to Beast binary protocol, enabling integration
with readsb --net-vrs-port output.
## Key Features:
- **VRS JSON Parser**: Stream parsing of newline-delimited JSON aircraft data
- **VRS Client**: TCP client with automatic reconnection and error recovery
- **Mixed Format Support**: Use Beast and VRS sources simultaneously
- **Enhanced Aircraft Data**: Added VRS-specific fields (registration, type, operator)
- **Position Source Tracking**: Identifies ADS-B, MLAT, TIS-B, and satellite positions
## Implementation:
- `internal/vrs/parser.go`: VRS JSON message parsing and validation
- `internal/client/vrs.go`: VRS TCP client implementation
- Enhanced `MultiSourceClient` to support both Beast and VRS formats
- Extended `Aircraft` struct with validity flags and additional metadata
- Updated configuration to include `format` field ("beast" or "vrs")
## Testing:
- Successfully tested against svovel:33005 VRS JSON stream
- Verified aircraft data parsing and position tracking
- Confirmed mixed-format operation with existing Beast clients
## Documentation:
- Updated README.md with VRS format configuration examples
- Enhanced ARCHITECTURE.md with VRS parser documentation
- Added data format comparison and configuration guide
This enables simpler integration with modern readsb installations while
maintaining full backward compatibility with existing Beast deployments.

Cleanup:
- Remove unused aircraft-icon.svg (replaced by type-specific icons)
- Remove test files: beast-dump-with-heli.bin, beast.test, main, old.json, ux.png
- Remove duplicate config.json.example (kept config.example.json)
- Remove empty internal/coverage/ directory
- Move CLAUDE.md to project root
- Update assets.go documentation to reflect current icon structure
- Format all Go code with gofmt
Server Host Binding Fix:
- Fix critical bug where server host configuration was ignored
- Add host parameter to Server struct and NewWebServer constructor
- Rename NewServer to NewWebServer for better clarity
- Fix IPv6 address formatting in server binding (wrap in brackets)
- Update startup message to show correct bind address format
- Support localhost-only, IPv4, IPv6, and interface-specific binding
This resolves the "too many colons in address" error for IPv6 hosts like ::1
and enables proper localhost-only deployment as configured.

Performance & Reliability Improvements:
- Increase WebSocket buffer sizes from 1KB to 8KB for better throughput
- Increase broadcast channel buffer from 100 to 1000 messages
- Increase Beast message channel buffer from 1000 to 5000 messages
- Increase connection timeout from 10s to 30s for remote receivers
Code Quality Improvements:
- Remove debug output from production code (CPR Debug, Merger Update spam)
- Add MaxDistance constant to replace magic number (999999)
- Clean up comments for better maintainability
- Implement auto-enable for selected aircraft trails
Benefits:
- Much cleaner server logs without debug spam
- Better performance under high aircraft density
- More reliable WebSocket connections with larger buffers
- Improved fault tolerance with increased timeouts

PROBLEM:
- Aircraft were appearing ~100km from receiver when actually ~5km away
- CPR (Compact Position Reporting) algorithm has zone ambiguity issue
- Without reference position, aircraft can appear in wrong 6-degree zones
SOLUTION:
- Add receiver reference position to CPR decoder for zone resolution
- Modified NewDecoder() to accept reference latitude/longitude parameters
- Implement distance-based zone selection (choose solution closest to receiver)
- Updated all decoder instantiations to pass receiver coordinates
TECHNICAL CHANGES:
- decoder.go: Add refLatitude/refLongitude fields and zone ambiguity resolution
- beast.go: Pass source coordinates to NewDecoder()
- beast-dump/main.go: Use default coordinates (0,0) for command-line tool
- merger.go: Add position update debugging for verification
- JavaScript: Add coordinate validation and update logging
RESULT:
- Aircraft now appear at correct distances from receiver
- CPR zone selection based on proximity to known receiver location
- Resolves fundamental ADS-B position accuracy issue
