ports orientation screen and delay to show that waking works

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit introduces a new asynchronous task engine into the BitBox02 firmware. It vendors third-party Rust libraries (async-task, concurrent-queue, crossbeam-utils) and adds a custom executor plus a small demo that shows an orientation screen and a delay. There is no indication in the commit message, diff, or supplied references that this change fixes or introduces a security vulnerability; it appears to be a routine architectural/feature addition.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal feature commit. If auditing the new async engine for security later, focus on executor correctness, waker/reference-counting soundness, and safe FFI boundaries between C and Rust.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.

backup: validate decoded seed length

This update fixes a bug in how the BitBox02 hardware wallet reads backup files from an SD card. A tampered backup file could claim to contain a seed longer than the 32-byte limit, which previously caused the device to panic (crash) when li…

u2f: fix refresh screen

This commit fixes a UI cleanup bug in the BitBox02 hardware wallet's U2F (Universal 2nd Factor) feature. Previously, a 'Refresh webpage' screen could be destroyed without clearing the pointer that tracked it, potentially leaving a dangling…

u2f: fix nudge screen

This commit fixes how a small on-screen reminder (the 'nudge screen') for U2F is created, tracked, and cleaned up. Before the fix, the code could lose track of the reminder screen or mishandle its removal, which might cause display glitche…

Use-after-free / dangling-pointer risk: global _nudge_label pointer could outlive the component it referencesUI state inconsistency: previous callback set _nudge_label = NULL on screen pop, but component cleanup may occur later or not at allMemory management fix: custom cleanup wrapper now synchronizes global pointer with component lifetime
