Ken Sanislo c9db25a302 HeadsetSidetone: log getSidetoneLevelSettings raw reply under -dd
Binary RE of LGHUB established that the 0x0604 wire 'level' is a
gain-step index, not a 0-100 percent: GHUB scales it through a step
count N sourced from getSidetoneLevelSettings (function 2). Solaar
writes a raw percent, which is only correct when N == 101 — so V2
headsets reporting a smaller N (G522/G325) get out-of-range step
writes the firmware silently clamps.

Function 2's byte layout couldn't be recovered from the binary (it
decodes in an inlined lambda). Probe it at build time and log the raw
reply so the next debug log captures where N sits — no behavior
change, gated on DEBUG so it only runs when diagnostics are on.

Solaar

Solaar is a Linux manager for many Logitech keyboards, mice, and other devices that connect wirelessly to a Unifying, Bolt, Lightspeed or Nano receiver as well as many Logitech devices that connect via a USB cable or Bluetooth. Solaar is not a device driver and responds only to special messages from devices that are otherwise ignored by the Linux input system.
