Import USB records off an external cmmc_usb database, so a site can retire it

A site running external mode keeps its devices and check-in/out history in a
separate cmmc_usb database. There was no way to bring that in, so the choice
was to keep the second database forever or lose the history. This adds
'flask usb import-external' - dry run by default, --commit to write - which
reads through the same connection settings the routes already use and never
writes to the source.

Two things it has to reconcile, and they are why it is a command rather than a
few INSERTs.

The schemas disagree about SHAPE. External is an event log, one row per action;
self-hosted is a paired row carrying both times. Pairing walks each device in
time order, and real logs after years of use are untidy. The rule is that
nothing is invented and nothing vanishes: a drive still out becomes an open
checkout and is NOT flagged (that is just a drive somebody has), a return with
no matching issue is skipped and named, and two issues in a row leave the first
open rather than inventing a return time nobody recorded.

Identity is the other. usbdevices.serialnumber is unique and NOT NULL and the
external devices table has no serial, so device_id becomes it. Blank or
duplicated ids stop that device rather than inventing a key. external
device_owner has no column here, so it is appended to the device notes rather
than dropped.

Also adds usbcheckouts.scannedviruses, the one field with nowhere to land.
waswiped already means what external calls sanitized - selfhosted.py was
mapping it - but scanned_viruses was HARDCODED None in the log output: the API
promised the field and had nothing behind it, so an imported history would have
rendered blank. It now reads and writes properly.

Nullable, never defaulted to false. An unrecorded scan is not a failed scan,
and for removable-media records those are very different claims.

Full suite 2131 passed; seven new tests pin the pairing rules.

"""CLI: move USB records off an external cmmc_usb database and into ShopDB.
flask usb import-external report what would happen, change nothing
flask usb import-external --commit write it
A site running the external mode keeps its devices and its check-in/out history
in a separate cmmc_usb database. This reads that database through the same
connection settings the routes already use, converts it to the self-hosted
tables, and leaves the source untouched. After a clean run, set
usb_directory_mode to selfhosted and the external database can be retired.
TWO THINGS THIS HAS TO RECONCILE, and they are the reason it is a command
rather than a few INSERTs:
The two schemas disagree about shape. External is an EVENT LOG - one row per
action, check-out or check-in - while self-hosted keeps a PAIRED ROW, one
checkout carrying both its times. Pairing is per device and in time order, and
real logs are not tidy: a check-out with no return is an open checkout, but a
return with no matching check-out, or two check-outs in a row, mean something
was recorded wrong years ago. Those are reported rather than guessed at, and
they never silently vanish.
Identity is the other one. usbdevices.serialnumber is unique and NOT NULL, and
the external devices table has no serial column - only device_id. So device_id
becomes the serial. A blank or duplicated device_id stops the import for that
device instead of inventing a key.
Dry run by default. The point of the first run is the report.

"""Record whether a returned drive was virus-scanned.
The external cmmc_usb checkinoutlog carries scanned_viruses and sanitized on
every row. The self-hosted usbcheckouts table already has waswiped, which is
the same fact as sanitized under a different name, but nothing corresponds to
scanned_viruses. That gap was harmless while the two backends were
alternatives, and becomes data loss the moment a site imports its history and
cuts over: whether a returned drive was scanned is precisely what a
removable-media audit asks.
Nullable on purpose, and NOT defaulted to false. A checkout recorded before
this column existed is not a checkout where the drive went unscanned; it is one
where nobody wrote it down. False would assert something the data does not say.
Idempotent, so a re-run on an already-migrated database is a no-op.
