fix(nestsClient): fix race + leaks + Android encoder/decoder bugs from second audit

A fresh audit caught a real race in the round-1 subscribe() rewrite plus
several distinct bugs in the Android MediaCodec layer.

**MoqLiteSession.subscribe() race regression** — the launched collector
that reads the SubscribeResponse and watches for peer FIN ran cleanup
(remove from subscriptionsBySubscribeId, close frames) before subscribe()
itself reached the post-await registration. If the publisher FIN'd
immediately after sending Ok, the collector exited first against an
empty map; subscribe() then registered the subscription, leaving frames
in the map with no live collector to ever close it on transport drop.
Consumer hung forever — exactly the failure mode round-1 fix #3 was
supposed to prevent. Fix: pre-register the subscription BEFORE launching
the collector. Drop unused `ok` field from ListenerSubscription.

**MoqLiteNestsSpeaker.startBroadcasting publisher leak** — if
session.publish() succeeded but broadcaster.start() then threw (mic
permission denied, AudioRecord allocation failure), the publisher was
never closed and stayed registered as session.activePublisher,
permanently blocking subsequent startBroadcasting calls.

**runCatching{suspend close} swallowing CancellationException** —
MoqLiteNestsSpeaker.close, MoqLiteBroadcastHandle.close,
MoqLiteNestsListener.close all wrapped suspending closes in
runCatching, breaking structured cancellation when the parent scope
cancelled teardown. Replaced with explicit cancel-rethrowing try/catch.

**MediaCodecOpusDecoder ArrayList<Short> boxing on every audio frame**
— at 50 fps × 960 samples × N speakers ≈ 48 000 boxed Short
allocations/sec/speaker on the audio hot path. Rewritten to write
directly into a pre-sized ShortArray via ShortBuffer.get(dst, off, len).

**MediaCodecOpusEncoder bugs**
- KEY_AAC_PROFILE = AACObjectLC was being set on an audio/opus
  encoder. Meaningless for Opus; stricter Codec2 stacks on Android
  13+ reject the configure() call with IllegalArgumentException and
  surface as DeviceUnavailable. Removed.
- The drain loop's INFO_OUTPUT_FORMAT_CHANGED branch had no progress
  guard. A buggy encoder re-emitting FORMAT_CHANGED without producing
  output would busy-spin against the 10 ms dequeue timeout. Now
  absorbed at most once per encode call. Same guard added to the
  decoder.

Adds regression test:
  - frames_flow_completes_when_peer_FINs_immediately_after_Ok

224 tests pass, 0 failures. Android target compiles clean.
