--factory-reset-device and --factory-reset fail with "Expected an int, got a boolean" (v2.7.8)

Describe the bug

Running --factory-reset-device fails immediately with:

Field meshtastic.protobuf.AdminMessage.factory_reset_device: Expected an int, got a boolean.

To Reproduce

meshtastic --factory-reset-device

Expected behavior

Device receives the factory reset command and reboots with cleared BLE bonds and default config.

Root cause

In node.py, factoryReset() assigns Python booleans to protobuf fields that are typed as builtins.int in the generated stubs (admin_pb2.pyi):

p.factory_reset_device = True # raises TypeError in strict protobuf
p.factory_reset_config = True # same issue

Fix

p.factory_reset_device = 1
p.factory_reset_config = 1

Environment

@michael-firebotlabs

Thanks @michael-firebotlabs, looks like this is also raised in #919 and has a PR open/under review to fix: #917

This should be fixed by #917 which will go out in the next release of the CLI.
