Both TODO.md backlogs and the README's architecture section still
described the Kalman-filter/heat-diffusion design that's since been
replaced by the delay-line Pot model and Kalman-free Smith predictor.
Check off the items that rewrite already fixed (heat-loss units,
transport delay vs. single-pole lag, three-Kalman-tuning), note how
the kn/sensor-noise item was resolved differently than proposed, and
add newly-spotted issues: brewpi.py wiring set_model_power
unconditionally (breaks pid_type "Normal"), kalman.py being dead code
in production, stale Kalman/kn keys in the config templates, and
debug print()s left in Pot.process().

tc_constants.py only held States and DEFAULT_THRESHOLDS, both used
exclusively by temp_controller_base.py and its subclasses; fold them
into temp_controller_base.py directly and drop the now-empty module.
Also drop heat_diffusion.py, unused since pot.py switched to the
delay-line model, and the matching dead import in pot.py.

[brewpi] - drop trace vars for the dtheta_ist_* attributes removed
when temp_controller_smith.py dropped Kalman filtering
[Pot] - drop unused kn field (never read since the noise-injection
code that used it was dropped)
[GUI] - default WS connection to ws://localhost:8765

Review of pot.py found a likely root cause for sim-vs-real control
mismatches: the heat-loss term carries the wrong units, masking
ambient cooling in simulation. Also notes the dropped sensor-noise
term, hardcoded ambient temp, and lag-vs-dead-time modeling gap.
