"""Helpers for manipulating the host platform's preferences file.

ESPHome's host platform stores preferences in
``~/.esphome/prefs/<app_name>.prefs`` using a simple binary layout that
mirrors ``HostPreferences::sync()``:
``[uint32_t key][uint8_t len][uint8_t data[len]]`` per entry.

Tests use these helpers to pre-populate state the binary will see at
boot (e.g. forcing safe mode) or to clear stale state between runs.
