sim/touchy: disable EMC_DEBUG_TASK_ISSUE logging (DEBUG=0)#4073
Merged
Conversation
touchy.ini was the only sim config shipping a non-zero DEBUG (0x10 = EMC_DEBUG_TASK_ISSUE). That flag makes task log every issued NML command as an ASCII string via emcCommandBuffer->msg2str(), which lazily creates a CMS_DISPLAY_ASCII_UPDATER and prints its scary 'may not function properly due to range limitations' banner on startup. The emcCommand buffer is correctly xdr-encoded; the ASCII updater is only a temporary string-conversion helper for the debug log. Setting DEBUG=0 (matching axis and gmoccapy sims) stops the task-issue logging and the spurious banner. No functional change to touchy. Surfaced by the ui-smoke tests (LinuxCNC#4054).

Set DEBUG = 0 (matching axis and gmoccapy). No functional change.
Surfaced in the ui-smoke review, PR #4054.
Test: touchy sim under xvfb, banner no longer printed, GUI starts normally.
