ble 1.1.1

ble scan on a terminal is now a live table sorted by signal strength (closest first), updating in place as advertisements arrive. The sort key is a smoothed RSSI so ordering follows sustained signal changes rather than jittering with every packet; the displayed value stays raw. A footer shows the in-range count, and rows beyond the terminal height collapse into a "+N weaker not shown" note.

Piped output, --json, and the new --stream flag keep the append-only per-event lines for scripting.

ble 1.1.0

ble scan output is now a colored table: name first (bold, aligned), RSSI colored by signal strength (green/yellow/red), UUID dimmed, advertised services in cyan, manufacturer data dimmed. A column header prints to stderr so piped stdout stays pure data; colors disable automatically when piped, under NO_COLOR, or TERM=dumb. JSON output is unchanged.
