Splitting the infrastructure out makes `hil_test.py` +test-focused and gives external tools (pool_check) one canonical import for locks, permits, and +flashing. + +## Goal / non-goals + +**Goal:** behavior-preserving code motion. `hil_test.py`'s CLI, arguments, output, report format, +and runtime behavior stay byte-identical.
