Simon Gardling b9cdc6a9b7 forza-trigger: stop per-packet writes between races (fix periodic clicks)
User reports periodic clicks and LED color changes on the controller
"between races". Theory: out-of-race, the run loop was calling
reset_triggers(controller) AND apply_lightbar(controller, ...) on
every Forza packet (60Hz). Even though both call sites land in
library code that nominally dedupes "same state" writes, in practice
any state change anywhere — including the lightbar dropping a green
channel value as RPM coasts down to idle — triggers a full HID OUT
report rewrite. The OUT report carries the trigger configuration too;
the controller firmware reacts on receipt and produces an audible
click each time.

Fix: out-of-race path becomes edge-triggered. On the in-race → menu
transition we run state.reset() + reset_all() once (turning both
triggers off and the lightbar to (0,0,0)). Subsequent menu packets
make no controller calls at all until in_race flips back to True.
First in-race packet then re-engages handlers and the RPM-driven
lightbar.

Side effect: the menu-mode car-class lightbar coloring is gone — the
bar stays black between races. If we want it back later, it should
be one-shot on the menu transition (NOT updated per-packet). For now
keep it simple: in-race only.

Build clean; tests unchanged (54/54 still pass — they exercise
handlers directly, not the run loop).
