The bank width — how many strips the control surface shows at once, and therefore the
multiple the banked total must hit for every fader to be filled.
This is a property of the surface, not of the allocation: an X-Touch is 8, each extender
adds another 8, and a console appliance declares its own (see #174). Until that surface
profile exists to be read, it is pinned here — in ONE named place — rather than sprinkled as
a literal 8. When the profile lands, this constant is the seam to replace.
