Deploy the matching event firmware firmware metadata and ZIP.

/resource/eventFirmware is available, but the published DEFCON entry still points to 2.8.0.8adc7c3, while this PR adds 2.8.0.c800fc8; update and deploy the matching resource until the intended build is live.

Verify each finding against current code. Fix only still-valid issues, skip the
rest with a brief reason, keep changes minimal, and validate.

In `@data/eventFirmware.json` around lines 126 - 129, Update the DEFCON event
firmware entry in eventFirmware metadata to consistently reference the intended
2.8.0.c800fc8 build, including its version, id, title, and zipUrl, and ensure
the matching event firmware resource/ZIP is deployed so /resource/eventFirmware
serves that build instead of 2.8.0.8adc7c3.

"releaseNotes": "## Welcome to DEF CON 34! 💀\n\nThis firmware has been customized for DEF CON 34 with factory default configurations.\n\n### ⚠️ Important: Backup Before Flashing\n\nIf your device has existing settings or encryption keys, **backup your keys / configurations** before proceeding. Flashing will reset your device to factory settings for the event.\n\n### Quick Start\n\n1. Ensure a **data-capable USB cable** is connected\n2. Select your device type\n3. Choose \"Full Erase and Install\"\n4. After flashing, download the Meshtastic app and pair via Bluetooth\n5. If you updated from a previous version or installed a UF2 on an NRF52 device, you will need to perform a factory reset on the device to activate the DEF CON mode.\n\n**Happy meshing from Las Vegas!**"
