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.

Connects to collect.py's push server and prints each incoming
snapshot as pretty-printed JSON, separated by a dashed line.
