etwenandClaude Opus 5 9cdd651d79 feat(ttl): Run the CPU stress as a systemd unit, and add two config knobs
mlucas-avx2 was backgrounded with '&' in the login shell, so it belonged
to that one terminal. Close Tera Term, drop the console, or reconnect on
a different session and the load was gone - and 'jobs' from the new
session showed nothing to say so. A multi-day soak could spend most of
its length with an idle CPU while the thermal numbers looked fine.

Script B now starts it as a transient unit:

  systemd-run --unit=mlucas-amm --property=Type=exec \
    --property=Restart=always --property=RestartSec=2 ...

The log is truncated once with '>' before the unit starts and appended
with '>>' inside it, so a restart adds to the run instead of erasing it.
'systemctl is-active mlucas-amm' now sits beside 'jobs', both in the
one-shot check and in every pass of the monitor loop. The old '&' line is
kept commented out above the new one to fall back to.

Script C has the matching stop. utils/kill_all_process.ttl is only
"kill $(jobs -p)" and a systemd unit is not a shell job, so without this
the load would have run through the post-test snapshot and into the next
test - every temperature and power reading taken at full load, with
nothing in 'show interfaces status' to reveal it. mlucas_amm_log is
copied to /host/hw-eval/jobs/ with the other stress logs.

Two values move into config.ttl:

  EN_timestamp      feeds logopen's 5th argument in Script A, so the
                    per-line timestamp is a knob rather than a literal 1
  BMC_USB_RUNTIME   feeds Script B's ping unit; it was hard-coded to
                    -w 14400 (4 h), which no longer matched the soak
                    lengths the SSD and USB knobs were being set to

SSD_RUNTIME and USB_RUNTIME also go 600 -> 3600, so the shipped default
is a one hour stress rather than the ten minutes V1.1.7 went out with.
--runtime is still the job's overall limit; COUNT does not multiply it.

Script A's Version History carries the V1.1.8 entries for all of this.
