Fixes meshcore-dev#2313. Hold the Function Button ~5s to power off (matches the board's stock firmware timing); any press wakes it back up, since the chip is fully halted in SYSTEMOFF and can't measure hold duration while off. The power LED blinks 3x on both shutdown and wake/boot to confirm the action registered. ThinkNodeM6Board::powerOff() now arms the button as a GPIO wake source (pull-up + SENSE_LOW) before entering SYSTEMOFF via NRF52Board::powerOff(). Scoped to simple_repeater and simple_room_server only, since companion_radio already has an in-flight change (meshcore-dev#2837) moving its button handling into UITask. Tested on hardware: shutdown, wake, and LED feedback all verified on a physical ThinkNode M6 repeater.

Btw i used the 5000ms from the electrow website.. i could swap to use the same as sensecap 1500ms if the team prefers. nbd for me |

Problem
Fixes #2313. The ThinkNode M6's battery isn't physically accessible, so there was no way to power the device off to conserve battery when idle.
Fix
Hold the Function Button for ~5s to power off (matches the timing of Elecrow's stock firmware for this board). A single press wakes it back up — the chip is fully halted in
SYSTEMOFFwhile off, so there's no way to measure a hold duration on wake, only on the way down. The power LED (red) blinks 3 times on both shutdown and wake/boot as visual confirmation the action registered.ThinkNodeM6Board::powerOff()now arms the button pin as a GPIO wake source (pull-up +SENSE_LOW) before enteringSYSTEMOFFviaNRF52Board::powerOff().Scope
Limited to
simple_repeaterandsimple_room_server.companion_radiois intentionally left out — #2837 is already moving that build's button handling intoUITask(running headless viaNullDisplayDriver), and duplicating a second independent button-read loop there would conflict with that approach rather than complement it.Testing
Built and flashed on a physical ThinkNode M6 repeater:
ThinkNode_M6_room_serverandSenseCap_Solar_repeater(shared guard, unaffected) build clean; room_server not flash-tested on hardware
