fix(android): stop the webview undoing the network security config

MainActivity set mixedContentMode = MIXED_CONTENT_ALWAYS_ALLOW together with
allowFileAccess/allowContentAccess = true, which is a blanket cleartext opt-in
reached by hand — the exact thing network_security_config.xml exists to prevent
and its own comment warns against. Nothing needed any of the three:

- file:// is never loaded. Cached thumbnails go through convertFileSrc, which
  on Android resolves to http://asset.localhost/... and is answered by wry's
  request interceptor rather than the filesystem; downloaded media goes over the
  loopback HTTP server (DR-137), which exists precisely because the asset/file
  route cannot stream a large file.
- content:// is never loaded. The manifest's FileProvider is for outbound share
  intents, not webview navigation.
- Mixed content never arises. Tauri serves the UI from http://tauri.localhost
  (use_https_scheme defaults false and is not set), and both 127.0.0.1 and
  asset.localhost are loopback/.localhost origins Chromium treats as potentially
  trustworthy. A plain-HTTP remote server would be mixed content, but the network
  security config already rejects it first — so ALWAYS_ALLOW bought nothing.

COMPATIBILITY_MODE rather than NEVER_ALLOW is a deliberate hedge: the platform
default at targetSdk 21+ is NEVER_ALLOW, so this is still one step looser, and it
keeps passive content working if the analysis missed a path. The two files now
cross-reference each other so the pair cannot drift apart again.

Also records why POST_NOTIFICATIONS is declared but never requested. An audit
read the missing runtime request as a threat to the lockscreen controls; it is
not. A foreground-service notification is explicitly NOT exempt, but a
media-session one is, and the platform predicate (Notification.isMediaNotification)
requires MediaStyle AND a non-null session token. Confirmed on device: appops
POST_NOTIFICATION: ignore with the transport notification live. So no permission
prompt is added and startForeground stays ungated — a guard there would trade a
cosmetic problem for the "did not then call Service.startForeground()" kill.
What is added is the guard matching the real precondition: both builders bind the
token once and log an error if it is ever null, since SystemUI's media carousel
is gated on the same predicate and a token-less notification loses the lockscreen
controls entirely, silently.

This file is only half the policy. MainActivity.configureWebViewSettings sets
the webview's mixedContentMode and its file/content access flags; setting
MIXED_CONTENT_ALWAYS_ALLOW there re-opened by hand what this config closes,
which is DR-199. Change the two together, or not at all.
