Server (collect.py --diff):
- History burst: first record sent full, subsequent as jay_diff_full diffs
- Live broadcast: each snapshot diffed against the previous one
- Diff payloads tagged with "_diff": true
Client (client.py --diff):
- Reconstructs full state via jay_merge_full before printing
GUI (Connector tab "Diff mode" checkbox):
- TcpReader.connect_to() accepts diff_mode; maintains _state dict
- Merges incoming diffs before emitting to Dashboard/Plot
- Checkbox state persisted to plot_settings.json
Both sides default to off; must be enabled consistently on server and client.
utils/__init__.py added so utils.jay_diff is importable as a package.

Previously load_today() was only called if in-memory records were empty,
which was never true once the first WeConnect poll had completed.
Now disk records are loaded unconditionally at startup and merged with
live in-memory records (dedup by ts) when a client connects.

storage_helpers: load_today_records() scans logs/ for all files
matching today's UTC date and VIN, merges and sorts their records.
network: _accept_loop receives an optional load_today callable;
if store_ref["current"] has no records it calls load_today() to
replay the day's history from disk before adding the client.
collect: passes a load_today lambda (None when -o is used).

data_model, log_config, network, storage_helpers, we_connect are now
under server/. collect.py stays in the project root and imports via
the server package.
