M3 step 5: Sweep, the band's signal strength as bars and a waterfall

Tab in the LoRa Scanner sweeps 863-870 MHz in 100 kHz steps (the
strongest of three RSSI readings at each, at 125 kHz), shown as bars with
peak hold over a waterfall, the Sniffer's frequency marked (Q98). The
Sweep pauses the Sniffer and keeps its packets; Tab resumes it (Q99).
Status Bar: SW. The floor, top and peaks are host-tested; `lora sweep
on|off|dump` prints them on the console.

At the desk: about 607 ms a pass, a flat floor at -100 to -102 dBm
(15 dB above the chip's own) and a steady carrier at 863.2 MHz.
