halui: clear the MDI flag in the same pass that restores the mode
When a halui MDI command finishes, modify_hal_pins() restores the Task mode that was active before it, then clears halui_sent_mdi. Both steps tested emcStatus->status == DONE separately, but the restore goes through emcCommandSend(), which refreshes emcStatus while it waits for the echo. If Task echoes the restore while still reporting EXEC, the restore fires and the clear is skipped.
The stale flag makes the next sendMdiCommand() keep the old halui_old_mode instead of recording the current mode, so halui later restores the wrong mode. In tests/halui/mdi this shows up as "timeout waiting for task mode to get to 3 (it's 2)" (reported by Bertho in #4604) or "get to 2 (it's 1)", depending on which restore the Task stall hits.
Take the DONE decision once, before the restore, and use it for both steps.

halmodule: fix inverted success check in port read() and peek()
hal_port_read() and hal_port_peek() return true when the bytes were copied. The check was inverted, so a successful read or peek returned False, and read() had already consumed the data. Add tests/halmodule/port covering write, peek, peek_commit and read.
