Add printPng drop-in to replace the brother_ql subprocess
Takes the PNG renderBadgePng already produces, separates black and red planes, and sends the job over TCP. Adds a serial queue per printer host so simultaneous sign-ins cannot collide on the printer's single connection. Not wired into printer.js yet.
