1//! Chip generation and identity detection from image bytes.
2//!
3//! The authoritative signal for the chip generation (MT1959 vs MT1939) is the
4//! **boot loader banner** at image offset `0x3000` ([`layout::BANNER`], 16
5//! bytes), e.g. `"MT1959 Boot JB8 "` or `"MT1939 Boot Code"`. The family is
6//! decided by [`Chip::from_banner`] over that banner and by nothing else.
7//!
8//! Why the banner and not the `MTEKMT19xx` identity string: across a 119-image
9//! corpus of clean OEM images the banner agrees with the actual code generation
10//! 119/119, whereas the `MTEKMT19xx` descriptor tag is a *stale vendor label*
11//! that is wrong for 55 of them — the JB8/JBC6/JBP6/BUP1 builds (LG WH16NS58,
12//! WH16NS60, BH16NS40..NS50, …) carry the tag `MTEKMT1939` but ship an MT1959
13//! boot loader and MT1959 code. So the tag drives **no logic anywhere**: not the
14//! family, not a fallback, not a gate, not the family hash, not an engine
15//! choice. It is retained only as an optional display field ([`ChipInfo::identity_tag`])
16//! — a curiosity, never a decision.
17//!
18//! Two other things that *look* like family signals are also NOT used to gate
19//! the family:
20//!
21//! * the `MTEKMT19xx` identity string (see above) — display-only;
22//! * the descriptor **marker byte** at `+0x50` takes `0x78/0x58/0x18/0x38`
23//!   within a single family (a variant/region/downgrade flag beside the DE byte
24//!   at `+0x56`) — display-only, never a gate.
25//!
26//! Detection refuses cleanly on an image whose boot banner names no supported
27//! MT19xx generation ([`ChipError::Undetectable`]); the caller then aborts with
28//! a clear message rather than guessing.
