Android Emulator — removed in v1.39.0

The in-container Android emulator was removed in v1.39.0.

The emulator stack (the emulator/ service + /emulator pages, AVD lifecycle create/launch/stop, the noVNC /emulator/vnc/* reverse proxy, the :full Docker image with Xvfb + noVNC, docker/Dockerfile.full, docker/compose.full.yml, the vibe-doctor emulator command and the /dev/kvm privileged-container support) were all removed in v1.39.0.

Reasons: the :full image was ~3–4 GB, required /dev/kvm passthrough + a privileged container, and was outside the practical scope of this single-operator tool.

To run a build on a real device instead, use the wireless ADB logcat feature (sidebar connection badge → connect) — see the device docs — or sideload the APK from the build artifacts.

See CHANGELOG.md v1.39.0 for the full removal list.
