Server Discovery

Public servers can now be found and joined without an invite. Turn on Public
Server in server settings to be listed.

discovery: browse public servers by category and join them without an invite
discovery: search servers by name and description (SQLite FTS5, trigram)
discovery: give servers a description, a banner image, and a category
discovery: verified and featured badges, assigned by platform admins from the
server context menu
discovery: report a public server; platform admins review reports with their
image attachments and can unlist a server from the directory
servers: join approval — a server can require owner approval before a new
member joins. Requests appear in a sidebar queue for anyone with the Approve
Members permission, and the requester sees an "awaiting approval" state
chat: touch devices get a real send button. Enter now inserts a newline on a
soft keyboard, and the microphone turns into a send button as soon as there is
text or an attachment. Message editing gained save and cancel buttons
feedback: paste or drag images into a feedback reply, not just into a new ticket
files: report and feedback attachments open in the in-app viewer instead of a
new browser tab

ws: only show the "cannot connect" banner once reconnect attempts are actually
exhausted. Previously every brief network blip painted it red for the whole backoff
wait. Reconnect attempts now continue past that point instead of requiring a manual
page reload
ws: detect a socket the server already dropped. readyState can read OPEN long
after the connection is dead, which silently swallowed messages for up to 90 seconds
after returning from the background
ws: ignore a close event from a socket that was already replaced — it could tear
down the healthy connection that took its place
mobile: keep fixed overlays clear of the system bars on edge-to-edge phones. The
connection banner's refresh button and the file viewer's controls were unreachable
mobile: the message search panel could trap the user. Its only close button sat
under the status bar, the panel covered the menu button, and the Android back button
minimized the app instead of closing the panel. Open panels now claim the back
gesture, and the pinned-messages sheet closes when tapped outside
mobile: scroll a focused field out from under the Android keyboard. The feedback
reply box and the sidebar rename input stayed hidden behind it
chat: the empty panel now says where the channel list is, and says something
different on mobile, where the sidebar is a drawer with no visible left edge

servers: the dead invite_required flag is now is_public, the switch that
lists a server in the discovery directory. All existing servers stay unlisted
