Improv provisioning stalls

[thenewwazoo]

During Improv-based provisioning, the various steps never "recover", and progressing requires closing the flasher UI entirely and re-connecting. Once the user has re-connected, the next step is available and succeeds (but never "recovers").

That is, instead of

• connect
• flash image
• connect wifi
• open device page

Instead a user must

• connect
• flash image
• disconnect and reconnect
• connect wifi
• disconnect and reconnect
• etc

post-flashing

After flashing, the console log reads:

Wrote 542416 bytes (378008 compressed) at 0x0 in 37.034 seconds.
Leaving...
HARD RESET
DISCONNECT
Initializing Improv Serial
Starting read loop
Writing to stream: [0x49, 0x4D, 0x50, 0x52, 0x4F, 0x56, 0x01, 0x03, 0x02, 0x02, 0x00, 0xE5, 0x0A]
Finished read loop
Improv initialization failed. Error: Improv Wi-Fi Serial not detected

The time between DISCONNECT and Initializing Improv Serial is far, far shorter than the time required for the Improv loop to have begun running.

post wifi

After provisioning WiFi, the console log reads:

Writing to stream: [0x49, 0x4D, 0x50, 0x52, 0x4F, 0x56, 0x01, 0x03, 0x1B, 0x01, 0x19, 0x07, (ssid bytes), 0x10, (psk bytes), 0x12, 0x0A]
PROCESS {version: 1, packetType: 1, packetLength: 1, data: '[0x03]'}
Uncaught (in promise) TIMEOUT
Finished read loop

I suspect this is because the connect_wifi loop bails after 2 seconds (10 times 200ms delay). Increase this and see what happens.

Was looking to get started with this but looks like this has been increased to 10s. Did that fix the issue?

I wonder if this is caused by https://github.com/ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo/pull/41

Fixed in #129
