FX30 Controller: reconstructing Sony FX30 remote control

FX30 Controller implements remote control of the Sony FX30 camera on an M5Stack Cardputer ADV. It joins the camera's Wi-Fi Direct network, performs PTP-IP and Sony SDIO handshakes, and uses documented property and control codes for recording, exposure adjustments and status. It also provides live view.
