Pull request overview
This PR introduces a single, app-global Application Identifier service that is persisted via PreferencesService, and wires CaDA, MouldKing, and JIESTAR to use this shared AppId source (instead of vendor-specific persistence/logic).
Changes:
- Added
IAppIdentifierService+AppIdentifierServicethat generates/persists a random app identifier and can serve variable-length prefixes. - Refactored CaDA and JIESTAR device managers to pull their AppID from the shared service.
- Updated MouldKing architecture so devices can receive an app-wide AppID (via
IMouldKingDeviceManager) and patch telegram bytes [1] and [2]; updated/added tests accordingly.

Thing to discuss whether we need to have additional 3 similar types: IJieStarDeviceManager, ICaDADeviceManager and IMouldKingDeviceManager just to define GetAppId() but having typical usage like this one:
appId: _cadaManager.GetAppId().Span[..2]
How about using this IAppIdentifierService to simply return 4 / 8 bytes as unique AppId and let all the consumers to use subset as they used it now.
WDYT?

As I discovered while reverse‑engineering the JIESTAR devices, the bytes at positions [1, 2] in their datagrams represent an ApplicationIdentifier.
Since JIESTAR and MouldKing devices share the same datagram structure, MouldKing also uses these two bytes as an ApplicationIdentifier.
With this PR, I introduced a global AppIdService, which generates a random ApplicationID on first use and persists it via the PreferencesService.
CaDA, MouldKing, and JIESTAR now all rely on this shared AppIdService.
