feat(machine): NFC Bolt Card reader driver + IPC (main process)

Main-process driver over nfc-pcsc (PC/SC). On tap it reads the NTAG424
Type-4 NDEF file via ISO7816 APDUs (select NDEF app D2760000850101 →
select file → ReadBinary NLEN + message) and extracts the lnurlw voucher
(fresh SUN p/c per tap), forwarding it to the renderer on `nfc:card-tapped`
(+ `nfc:status`). Lazy, guarded import — a missing reader/pcscd just
reports 'unavailable', never breaking the cash-out QR path. Preload
removeAllListeners guards against a double payment-trigger on renderer reload.

- electron/nfc-service.ts: startNfcReader() + readNdefLnurlw()/extractLnurlw().
- electron/nfc-service.test.ts: 7 tests (NDEF URI extraction, Type-4 read
  sequence incl. AID select, empty-file + select-fail handling).
- main.ts start + IPC forward; preload + electron.d.ts listeners.
- add nfc-pcsc dep (native @pokusew/pcsclite; nix build handling next).

/**
* NFC reader driver (main process) for Bolt Card tap-to-pay.
*
* Wraps `nfc-pcsc` (PC/SC via the Feitian KP382 CCID reader). On each card
* tap it reads the NTAG424 Type-4 NDEF file over ISO7816 APDUs and extracts
* the `lnurlw://…?p=…&c=…` voucher (the card computes fresh SUN p/c per tap),
* then hands it to the renderer over IPC. The renderer, when showing a
* cash-out invoice, pays it via LNURL-withdraw (see lnurl-withdraw.ts).
*
* Everything here is best-effort and lazy: `nfc-pcsc` is a native addon, so it
* is dynamically imported and every failure is swallowed into a status
* callback. If the reader/library is absent, NFC is simply unavailable and the
* QR path keeps working — cash-out never depends on this.
