Problem

Scanning a barcode for an existing asset showed a scan result card ("View Details" + "Check In" buttons) instead of going directly to the asset.

Solution

Existing asset scans now redirect directly to the full asset detail view on the Assets tab. Auto-checkin still runs in background if GPS is available. New barcodes (not found in DB) still show the Add Asset form, and now correctly switch to the Add Asset tab.

Changes

static/index.html: handleBarcode() calls viewAsset() directly when asset is found; showNewAssetForm() calls switchTab("tabAddAsset") with deferred status update to survive async startScanning
