feat(poc/audio): add Android mobile audio spike

Closes the mobile half of the PoC plan §2 audio exit criterion
left open by poc/audio-capture-playback-spike. The desktop and
mobile halves together fully retire the audio PoC.

Stack:
  Kotlin (MainActivity) → JNI → Rust cdylib
    → cpal 0.16 → Oboe (AAudio / OpenSL ES) → Android audio HAL

Layout:
  rust crate (src/lib.rs)   — JNI_OnLoad, initContext,
                              playSine440, record1sToFile;
                              panic-catching at JNI boundary;
                              android_logger → logcat
  android/ (Gradle 8.7,     — minSdk 24, compileSdk 34, AGP 8.5.2.
   AGP 8.5.2, Kotlin 1.9.24)  cargoBuildRust task wraps cargo-ndk
                              -P 26 -t <abi> for all four ABIs;
                              wired into preBuild so AGP picks up
                              the produced .so files.

Verified on 2026-05-13 on a physical Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G
(2023), Android 14 SDK 34 arm64-v8a:
  - Playback: 500 ms 440 Hz mono sine, 22,050 frames emitted at
    44.1 kHz through cpal/Oboe/AAudio/device speaker.
  - Capture: 1 s from default input, 42,624 frames written to
    /data/data/app.chanora.poc.audio/files/chanora_poc_capture.wav.
    File pulled via 'adb exec-out run-as ... cat' and confirmed
    by file(1) as 'RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio,
    Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz'. Header bytes
    cross-checked against the reported frame count.

Notes:
  - cpal links libaaudio (introduced API 26), so cargo-ndk targets
    API 26 via -P 26 while the Android module's minSdk stays at 24
    (DEC-004). API 24/25 devices would fall back to OpenSL ES at
    runtime; not exercised here.
  - JNI panic safety: every JNI entry point wraps its body in
    std::panic::catch_unwind and a tracing panic hook routes
    panic messages to logcat under tag 'ChanoraAudioPoC'. Without
    this, cpal panicking inside an extern "system" function would
    abort the process.
  - The emulator AVD chanora-poc-api34 and its system image were
    installed during Phase 0 but emulator verification was skipped
    once the physical-device run succeeded. Real-device evidence
    is stronger.

Surfaced finding: DEC-011.1 mobile half promoted from Deferred to
Accepted for Android in the same docs commit; iOS remains
explicitly Deferred (requires macOS + Xcode hardware).

Authority: PoC plan §2, DEC-011, DEC-011.1.
Not product code; not promoted into chanora_audio.

# Gradle start up script for POSIX generated by Gradle.
#
# Important for running:
#
# (1) You need a POSIX-compliant shell to run this script. If your /bin/sh is
# noncompliant, but you have some other compliant shell such as ksh or
# bash, then to run this script, type that shell name before the whole
# command line, like:
#
# ksh Gradle
#
# Busybox and similar reduced shells will NOT work, because this script
# requires all of these POSIX shell features:
# * functions;
# * expansions «$var», «${var}», «${var:-default}», «${var+SET}»,
# «${var#prefix}», «${var%suffix}», and «$( cmd )»;
# * compound commands having a testable exit status, especially «case»;
# * various built-in commands including «command», «set», and «ulimit».
#
# Important for patching:
#
# (2) This script targets any POSIX shell, so it avoids extensions provided
# by Bash, Ksh, etc; in particular arrays are avoided.
#
# The "traditional" practice of packing multiple parameters into a
# space-separated string is a well documented source of bugs and security
# problems, so this is (mostly) avoided, by progressively accumulating
# options in "$@", and eventually passing that to Java.
#
# Where the inherited environment variables (DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS, JAVA_OPTS,
# and GRADLE_OPTS) rely on word-splitting, this is performed explicitly;
# see the in-line comments for details.
#
# There are tweaks for specific operating systems such as AIX, CygWin,
# Darwin, MinGW, and NonStop.
#
# (3) This script is generated from the Groovy template
# https://github.com/gradle/gradle/blob/HEAD/subprojects/plugins/src/main/resources/org/gradle/api/internal/plugins/unixStartScript.txt
# within the Gradle project.
