go-hid's ReadWithTimeout takes a time.Duration, so the bare 250 was
250ns, which truncates to a 0 ms hid_read_timeout. On both Linux
(poll) and macOS (cond_timedwait) 0 ms means non-blocking, so the
button loop spun continuously: ~1.2 cores and ~7.5k context
switches/sec at idle, from startup.
Pass 250*time.Millisecond and match hid.ErrTimeout with errors.Is
ahead of the string fallback. Idle CPU drops to ~0%.
