chore(dashboard): remove orphaned route, redirect 5 legacy routes, fix a misleading docstring (#143)

* chore(dashboard): remove orphaned /adapter-config route

AdapterConfig is already embedded directly in Environment.tsx
(excludeKeys={CURATED_KEYS} hideLlmToggle); no in-app <Link> ever
targeted the standalone /adapter-config route. Drop the route, its
App.tsx import, the extraTitleItems entry in Layout.tsx, and the
now-unused Sliders icon import. pages/AdapterConfig.tsx itself is
kept — it's imported directly by Environment.tsx.

* chore(dashboard): redirect 5 orphaned legacy routes to their tabbed homes

/gauge-sites, /town-anchors, /mesh, /meshtastic/sources, and
/meshcore/companion each duplicate content now tabbed inside Places,
MeshtasticNodes, and MeshCoreContactsCompanion, and have no in-app
<Link> pointing at them (verified with rg). Convert them to
<Navigate replace> redirects, matching the existing /notifications
and /data-sources precedent.

/town-anchors, /meshtastic/sources, and /meshcore/companion land on
their host's first tab rather than deep-linking to the second tab
(no ?tab= support exists) — same accepted trade-off as the existing
/notifications and /data-sources redirects.

Drop the now-dead extraTitleItems entries and the redundant
'/meshcore/companion' pathTitles entry, plus the Radio, Droplets,
Layers, and Bot icon imports that were only used by those entries
(MapPin is kept — still used by the /places nav item). These 5
routes were never nav entries (extraTitleItems only), so the sidebar
stays at 17 items with 5 Meshtastic / 5 MeshCore — MT/MC symmetry
unchanged.

* docs(dashboard-api): fix misleading refresh_toggles docstring

The docstring claimed this endpoint was "kept for backwards-compat
with the dashboard's manual ping path," but rg turns up no frontend
call site for /notifications/refresh-toggles anywhere in
dashboard-frontend. The auto-refresh middleware
(_auto_refresh_toggle_filter, registered via
register_config_routes_hooks) already refreshes the ToggleFilter on
every successful notifications config PUT, covering the normal case.
Endpoint is untouched -- comment only, kept for ops/debug use.
