The dutctl tester DUT now names its PiKVM, pikvm30, whose ATX board is wired to GPIO 5, 6 and 13 of the tester. A fake mainboard service, test/fake-atx/fake_atx.py, answers on these pins and logs each press, so PiKVM ATX tests can run without a real DUT. No dutctl test uses the PiKVM yet.

pikvm30 is wired to the tester, with its ATX lines on GPIO 5, 6 and 13.
No test uses it yet; the comment keeps these pins out of the tests.

test/fake-atx/fake_atx.py runs on the tester as fake-atx.service. It
reads the PiKVM's power and reset switch, drives its power LED and logs
each press.

The ATX board's cables are two-pin plugs, so each switch needs a GPIO
next to a GND pin. GPIO 6 has none; GPIO 10 (pin 19) sits beside GND
(pin 20).
