Matt Johnson 2d359ea6f1 fix(tests): stop poisoning sys.modules session-wide with a bare MagicMock
Three test files (test_llm_scoping, test_fix_meshcore_save_and_llm_test,
test_config_partial_save_merge) did `sys.modules.setdefault(_mod, MagicMock())`
to stub an optional import. `setdefault` installs the MagicMock into
sys.modules for the ENTIRE pytest session even when the real package is
present — so any LATER test that does `await <that module>.<coro>(...)`
(e.g. `await aiosqlite.connect(...)`) fails with
"object MagicMock can't be used in 'await' expression" / "Event loop is closed".

This is what made test_fire_tracker_phase4::test_natural_language_fire_
question_routes_to_llm pass in isolation but fail in full-suite order — the
leak came from an earlier file, not the victim. #140 hardened the victim's
own config/history isolation but couldn't fix an external sys.modules poison.

Fix: only fall back to the MagicMock when the real module genuinely fails to
import (guarded assignment), so a present package is never replaced. Root-cause
fix in the polluters, not a skip on the victim.

Suite: 2422 passed, 0 failed, 72 skipped — fully green (was 6 failed before
#140, then 1 order-dependent failure after). Confirmed deterministic across
repeated full runs.

"""Regression tests: PUT /api/config/{section} must MERGE partial payloads.
The outage (2026-07-17 06:46:52 on CT108)
-----------------------------------------
Saving the "Auto-advert interval" dropdown on the MeshCore Companion page PUT a
single-key body to /api/config/connection:
{"meshcore_advert_interval_seconds": 10800}
`_dict_to_dataclass(ConnectionConfig, body)` builds kwargs ONLY from keys present
in the body, so `return cls(**kwargs)` gave every ABSENT field its dataclass
default. One click rewrote meshtastic.yaml to defaults and took BOTH radios
offline:
type: tcp -> serial (Meshtastic offline)
tcp_host: 192.168.1.100 -> <deleted> (LOCAL_FIELDS, write failed)
tcp_port: 4404 -> 4403 (wrong meshmonitor vnode)
meshcore_host: 192.168.1.253 -> '' (MeshCore off; blank = off)
meshcore_conn_type: serial -> tcp (wrong transport)
meshcore_serial_port: /dev/meshcore-rak -> '' (RAK radio lost)
It went unnoticed because `connection` is restart-required: the running process
kept the good in-memory config while the file sat gutted, waiting for any
restart.
This is NOT one page's bug -- the route is destructive on a partial payload for
EVERY section. Other callers only survive because they happen to spread the full
object first.
Fix: the route merges the body over the CURRENT section dict before coercing, so
omitted keys keep their live values while explicitly-sent keys still apply.
