feat(ble): public peer-view read API for embedders running run_rx_loop

Expose ControlReadHandle (was pub(crate)) + make Node::control_read_handle()
public, and add ControlReadHandle::peer_views() -> Vec<PeerView>
{ node_addr_hex, npub, connected }, read lock-free from the tick-published stats
snapshot (peer_meta). This lets an embedder run run_rx_loop on a background task
(which exclusively borrows &mut Node) and still poll live peer state from a
cloned handle — no &Node access needed. Used by the Myco app's developer UI.
