Resolve platform, hardware model, and friendly device name once via a
shared DeviceIdentityService and send them to both backends: Plex gets
a real X-Plex-Platform plus X-Plex-Device/X-Plex-Device-Name (shown as
Player in dashboards/Tautulli), Jellyfin gets the device name in the
MediaBrowser auth header. Transcode and live-TV decision requests keep
their pinned platform names, which Plex validates server-side.

Keep a running companion-remote host's crypto identity in sync with the
active profile: subscribe to PlexHome/connection/join streams and rebuild
auth contexts (restarting the broadcast when they change) so a removed
home user or revoked borrowed connection stops controlling the host.
Serialize host start/stop/crypto-rebuild through a lifecycle lock, clean
up peer subscriptions before re-listening, and guard the replaced-client
onDone against clobbering the new client's session. Drop the context.mounted
guards that aborted an app-level host start, fix the DiscoveryView
init-flash/stuck-on-throw, and delete the dead initialize*Crypto helpers.
Replace session ID + PIN auth with HKDF-derived home secret and
per-session AES-256-GCM encrypted channel. Auto-start remote server
on host devices, auto-discover hosts via authenticated UDP broadcast.
- Dispose old discovery service before creating new one in loadRecentSessions()
- Host waits for client reconnect instead of calling joinSession
- Clear stale error messages on successful reconnect
- Rate limit auth attempts (5 tries, 30s lockout)
- Use Random.secure() for peer ID
- Extract shared ACK helper methods
