Records the service now running on CT 154: @lotus-mc-bridge shows the player count and names as its Matrix status, for example 3 online: Daisybell_2002, Honnehh, ImpeccableWolf.

• Pings the server like the in-game server list; no RCON. Uses the bridge mod's own token, handed over with systemd LoadCredential, under DynamicUser.
• Re-sends every 20 s, because the mod syncs with set_presence=offline and Synapse would otherwise drop the account to offline.
• One failed ping is ignored; after two it shows Server offline as away.

Testing: 13 unit tests. Live on CT 154 it stayed online across refreshes with no restarts. The offline path was tested against a fake homeserver and a closed port, not by stopping the real server.

Nothing deploys this automatically: it's on CT 154, not LXC 151, and was installed by hand.

minecraft: show players online as the bridge bot's status ... 2d2ebf64a5

A small service on CT 154 pings the Lotus Minecraft server and sets the result
as the Matrix status of @lotus-mc-bridge, re-sent every 20 s because the mod
syncs with set_presence=offline and Synapse would otherwise drop it to offline.
Uses the mod's own token, so no new account or secret.
