Restore the SCBR device as an X68000 Host Bridge, including the Human68k-compatible host file-system service and the bridge-specific SCSI message handlers. Back its Ethernet path with the TAP driver, derive a stable locally administered MAC address, preserve the driver minimum-frame/FCS expectations, and restrict received traffic to its own unicast frames and broadcasts.
Match the RASCTL/RASETHER/RASDRV bridge protocol that originated in the parent RaSCSI project: dispatch its non-standard message format on READ(10)/WRITE(10) (0x28/0x2a), with type, function, phase, and a three-byte byte count carried in the CDB. Advertise the legacy control channel required by RASCTL, translate its list and device-management commands to PiSCSI operations, and defer stop or system-shutdown requests until after the response is sent, while gating this insecure interface behind a new '-c disabled|media|full' runtime option. Preserve the type-1 Ethernet exchange used by RASETHER and the type-2, phased filesystem exchange used by RASDRV.
Register the device in the factory, protobuf API, controller transfer path, command-line tooling, device listings, and web UI. Share the explicit bridge and proxy-ARP topology workflow with DaynaPort so both adapters validate and use the same mode/interface pair.
Add build support for iconv where needed, extend unit coverage for device creation, RAS* protocol handling, CLI parsing, web attachment, and topology selection, and update the man pages and network-profile documentation for Host Bridge operation and its networking limits.
The X68000 host bridge and associated host file system module
has not been functional for many years, as reported by multiple users
Removing the code will reduce complexity for users -
the SCBR device has caused some misunderstandings in the past -
while eliminating code that has been flagged as insecure by SonarQube
* Rebrand project to PiSCSI
- rascsi ->piscsi
- rasctl -> scsictl
- rasdump -> scsidump
- ras* -> piscsi* (rasutil -> piscsi_util, etc.)
* Refined the formatting and wording of the app startup banner
* Kept some references to rascsi and rasctl where backwards compatibility is concerned
* Point to the new github repo URL

* Using lambdas instead of member function pointers simplifies the command dispatching and reduces the code volume
* Removed duplicate error handling
* Fix for issue #956
* Unit test updates
* Resolved SonarQube issues
- Moved C++ code to cpp/ from src/raspberrypi
- Related updates to Makefile, easyinstall.sh, and the github build rules
- Removed the native X68k C code in src/x68k from the repo
