darken a1b9abd4cb fix(ble): Drop proximity messages with unsupported payload prefix
AirPods Gen4 emit a one-off type 0x07 frame from their identity address
on connect whose payload prefix is 0x07 instead of 0x01. Its bytes are
not the plaintext status format, but the model bytes happen to match,
so it minted a fresh device tracker and showed as a duplicate device
card until the stale timeout.

Every known plaintext status broadcast (including pairing mode) uses
prefix 0x01; pairing state lives in the suffix byte. Reject anything
else at the decoder, logging the dropped frame's hex.

Fixes #603
