cj-vana ee1b95cc9e forge: add patch 13 — quadratic hop delay growth
bias = hop * step + hop^2 * BOT_HOP_GROW_MILLIS

Bumps hop_step 3000->2000, adds BOT_HOP_GROW_MILLIS=400, raises cap
15000->50000 and TTL 75000->95000. Forces re-default of hop_step on
existing bots via BOT_PREFS_VERSION 5->6.

Gap between adjacent hops now grows with hop count (3200ms at hop 1
all the way to 8000ms at hop 8), so a far bot reliably has time to
hear a near bot's reply through the mesh before its own scheduled
fire time -- previous linear bias kept the gap constant at 3000ms,
which wasn't enough at 6+ hops where reply propagation takes ~5-10s.

Subject: [PATCH 11/13] Auto-advert on startup (initial flood at 5s instead of
120s)
BOT_PREFS_INITIAL_FLOOD_ADVERT_MILLIS 120000 -> 5000. The bot now sends
its first flood advert ~5 seconds after boot, so the whole mesh learns
the bot is up almost immediately. Subsequent flood adverts still
default to once every 24h via BOT_PREFS_DEFAULT_FLOOD_ADVERT_MILLIS.
