dissimulo 030172f523 Initial backup of LTP-305G matrix clock setup on matrixpi
Captures everything needed to redeploy the two-display clock (hour on I2C
0x61, minute on I2C 0x63) on a fresh Pi:

- Both systemd units (matrix0x61.service, matrix0x63.service)
- Deployed Pimoroni script tree, including the local %I (12-hour) clock
  customization
- Vendored upstream sources (ltp305-python, breakout-garden) so restore is
  fully offline-capable
- Boot config snippet enabling I2C
- install.sh that wires it all back up idempotently
- Inventory doc cross-referencing every live-system path
