Added

• masscan, macchanger, john, hashid, exploitdb to deploy.py base install
• Also added missing hcxdumptool, hcxtools, hashcat to deploy.py

Added

• searchsploit CVE-to-exploit lookup in generate-findings.py
• Findings now include exploit_available, exploit_paths, exploit_count
• john + hashid as alternative cracking backends in wireless_crack.py
• crack_auto() tries aircrack → hashcat → john in priority order
• MAC spoofing support: get_current_mac(), spoof_mac(), restore_mac(), random_mac() in wireless_hardware.py
