The app forgot everything it did the moment it exited. The Rust half
logged through env_logger to stdout only -- invisible to anyone who
launched from a desktop icon, and on Android worse than that: stdout is
not logcat, so the backend produced no visible output at all on the
platform carrying this project's hardest bugs. The autoplay deadlock,
the truncated-stream restart and the background-audio stall were all
diagnosed by talking a user through `adb logcat`, because there was no
other way to see anything. A panic left nothing behind at all.

Logs now go to a size-capped rotating file, to logcat on Android, and to
the webview console in dev. A panic is recorded with its backtrace before
the process dies. The frontend's messages are forwarded into the same
file, so one timeline holds both halves of the app in order -- which is
what makes a race between them legible after the fact, and races between
them are the expensive bug class here.

Redaction runs in the log FORMATTER, not at export time. A credential
sitting in a file on the device is already a disclosure; stripping it on
the way out would be too late. The exporter redacts a second time to
cover files written by builds that predate this. api_key, X-Emby-Token,
Authorization, "AccessToken" and Token="..." all reduce to [REDACTED],
while host, item ids and filenames are deliberately kept -- a log scrubbed
of those is one nobody can debug anything from. Server URLs keep scheme
and host and drop any embedded user:pass@.

Two things the tests caught that review would not have:

  - redact_headers recursed on its own output. The replacement keeps the
    header NAME, so the next call matched the same header forever; the
    test died with a stack overflow. It is a forward scan now.
  - The frontend forwarder used `void plugin.error(...)`. `void` discards
    a promise's value but not its rejection, so in any webview without
    IPC -- a unit test, SSR, a browser preview -- every log line became an
    unhandled rejection. 20 of them showed up the first time coverage
    ran. Each call now attaches a catch.

Only info and above cross the IPC boundary: debug is per-tick player
state and forwarding it would be thousands of calls a minute for output
nobody reads. A failing forwarder never propagates and never prevents the
console write.

Nothing is transmitted anywhere. The export writes a zip and reports its
path; the user attaches it themselves, which is also what keeps this from
becoming telemetry. An Android share intent is explicitly out of scope --
it is Kotlin work that belongs with the other native code.

The panic hook chains to the previous hook rather than replacing it,
because utils/lock.rs installs a silencing hook around tests that provoke
poisoned locks on purpose.

Spec in docs/specs/diagnostics-and-logging.md; UR-078 / DR-218 / UT-209.

Verified: 1079 frontend tests and the coverage gate, 759 Rust tests,
clippy -D warnings, svelte-check 0 errors, and cargo check for
aarch64-linux-android.
