docs: update CHANGELOG and CLAUDE.md for v0.9.0

CHANGELOG.md:
- New v0.9.0 section covering erase-all protocol, browse helpers,
  delete_all_events(), ach_mitm.py, and ACH server overhaul
- Back-filled v0.8.0 section (write pipeline, monitoring, ACH server)
  that was missing from the previous release notes

CLAUDE.md:
- Bump version to v0.9.0
- Add erase-all protocol section with full wire sequence, SUB 0x06
  storage range response layout, and post-erase key counter reset notes
- Document ACH server state format (ach_state.json v0.9.0 schema with
  downloaded_keys + max_downloaded_key)
- Add RV55 DCD/DTR issue to What's next

## Erase-all protocol (SUBs 0xA3/0xA2/0x06) — confirmed 2026-04-11
Full sequence confirmed from 4-11-26 MITM capture of a live Blastware ACH session
(`bridges/captures/mitm/ach_mitm_20260411_001912/`).
### Wire sequence
```
BW → device: SUB 0xA3 params=00 00 00 00 00 00 00 FE 00 00 (begin erase)
device → BW: SUB 0x5C (ack)
BW → device: SUB 0x1C probe (offset=0x00)
device → BW: SUB 0xE3 (probe ack)
BW → device: SUB 0x1C data (offset=0x2C)
device → BW: SUB 0xE3 (monitor status response)
BW → device: SUB 0x06 probe (offset=0x00, params same)
device → BW: SUB 0xF9 (probe ack)
BW → device: SUB 0x06 data (offset=0x24)
device → BW: SUB 0xF9 (36-byte storage range response)
BW → device: SUB 0xA2 params=00 00 00 00 00 00 00 FE 00 00 (confirm erase)
device → BW: SUB 0x5D (ack — device memory is now cleared)
```
All frames use standard `build_bw_frame` (not write-format). Response SUBs follow the
standard `0xFF - SUB` formula; no exceptions.
### SUB 0x06 — event storage range response (36 bytes)
The 36-byte response body ends with two 4-byte event keys:
| Offset (from end) | Field | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `[-8:-4]` | first stored event key | `01110000` when empty |
| `[-4:]` | last stored event key | `01110000` when empty |
Before erase: ends with `<first_key> <last_key>` (e.g. `0111ea60 0111eaa6`).
After erase: both bytes read `01110000` — device's empty/reset sentinel.
### Post-erase key counter reset
After a successful erase, the device resets its event counter. New events start from
key `0x01110000` again — the same key as the very first event ever recorded. This means
key-based deduplication in the ACH server must account for key reuse:
- After our own erase: `ach_state.json` `downloaded_keys` and `max_downloaded_key` are
cleared so the next session starts fresh.
- After an external erase: the ACH server detects it by comparing `max(device_keys)` to
`max_downloaded_key` from state. If the device max has rolled back below the historical
max, all current device keys are treated as new regardless of `seen_keys`.
### ACH server state format (v0.9.0)
`bridges/captures/ach_state.json`:
```json
{
"BE11529": {
"downloaded_keys": ["01110000", "0111245a"],
"max_downloaded_key": "0111245a",
"last_seen": "2026-04-11T01:04:36",
"serial": "BE11529",
"peer": "63.43.212.232:51920"
}
}
```
`max_downloaded_key` is the high-water mark — the largest key ever downloaded from the
unit. It is NOT reset when events are erased from the device (only when our server does
the erase). Used for post-erase detection.

## What's next
- Compliance config encoder — build raw write payloads from a `ComplianceConfig` object
- Locate "Sensor Check" byte in compliance config (need capture with Disabled vs Before-monitoring)
- ACH inbound server — accept call-home connections from field units
- Modem manager — push RV50/RV55 configs via Sierra Wireless API
- RV55 DCD/DTR issue — newer RV55 firmware doesn't assert DCD by default; units don't
resume monitoring after call-home disconnect (`--restart-monitoring` flag deferred)
