The runtime call does not go over HTTP on Android — the WebView cannot
deliver a fetch() POST body to shouldInterceptRequest, so v3 routes
runtime calls through the addJavascriptInterface bridge. Two things
follow that cost an hour each before the v3 source was read:
`.playwright/init-events.js` does not transfer to the device (its
outbound half hooks fetch, and a POST to /wails/runtime answers
"missing object value" — which reads like a wrong payload and is the
interceptor getting no body at all), and hooking fetch from an eval is
too late on any platform because the bundle captured its reference at
module scope.

The recipe that does work goes in, along with how to get audio onto the
phone (scoped storage silently swallows a push into
/sdcard/Android/data/<pkg>/files, and the fixtures are 2 seconds long,
which is useless for watching a seek bar) and the permission dialog a
reinstall raises, which looks exactly like the app failing to start.

NOTES.md takes the #53 measurements: that its frontend is byte-identical
to the v0.3.1 the phone carries, that the symptom does not reproduce on
main in four scenarios, and that reverting only backend/player/ to
v0.3.1 reproduces #125 instead — with the shim that makes that a
ten-minute experiment rather than a full checkout.

logan fe1fbefee7 fix(player): give the seek bar's interval one owner
`handleInput()` called `stopProgress()` and mutated no reactive state,
so Lit scheduled no update, `updated()` never ran, and the tail of
`updated()` that restarts the interval never executed. Only a `change`
event or the next backend report could bring it back — so an `input`
that never commits froze the interpolation: a drag cancelled outside
the element, a pointer taken by a scroll, or a touch on the track
treated as a scrub, all ordinary gestures on a phone. While playing the
1 Hz report papered over it within a second; with reports not arriving
it was permanent.

The drag is `@state` now and `updated()` decides whether the interval
runs, so there is one place that knows. `handleChange` no longer starts
it directly for the same reason.

A flag set on `input` can strand, which would turn a stall of up to a
second into a permanent one — the failure this removes. `change` is the
ordinary end; `pointerup`/`pointercancel`/`touchend`/`touchcancel` on
the document are the ends that are not, attached with the drag and
dropped with it, because the pointer is routinely released outside the
element it started in.

The other half is that a report arriving mid-drag used to overwrite
`seekValue` and pull the thumb out from under the finger once a second.
It is skipped while dragging, and its seq is deliberately left
unrecorded so the first report after the drag still counts as fresh.

Three tests, all exercised against the fault: two fail on the old
component, and the third fails if the drag flag is left set — which is
the failure mode the fix introduces and the listeners exist to prevent.
Verified on the device too (Chrome 113): mid-drag the bar holds its
value and ignores reports, and on release it adopts the backend's real
position and resumes ticking.

Closes #164
