+⚡ Cordn status, payment readiness, lighter photos
+- Cordn panels now show the last successful check next to the connection status,
+  so “waiting” and “live” are easier to tell apart.
+- Sellers see a payment-readiness card in listing creation and on incoming
+  offers, with a direct link to add a Lightning address before accepting a deal.
+- Photos are resized to max 1600px and converted to WebP before upload when that
+  makes them smaller. GIFs and formats the WebView cannot decode are left alone.
+  This cuts upload time, quota use and Blossom storage.

 🧹 Spot owners can delete from the card menu
 - Owner/admin members now get a **Delete** action in the three-dot menu on
   spot and shop cards, opening the existing confirmation dialog.
