Seamless update from 0.9.x. Polish + bug fixes for the new media viewer (#483).

🐛 Fixes

  • Download now works — it was silently no-op'ing (swallowed error, no feedback). It saves the
    photo/GIF/video to your gallery and confirms with a toast.
  • Video actions work in full-screen — the native video was eating taps, so the controls never
    appeared. Now tap reveals the bar and download / share / forward work for video too.
  • First tap is clean — opening media shows it full-screen with no controls; the close button
    appears only on the second tap.
  • Smoother close — removed the animations/transitions that glitched while closing.
  • GrapheneOS — no more empty bar above the chat header after closing a photo (stopped hiding
    the status bar).

🔁 Other

  • Removed the redundant close from the bottom action bar (top-right X + swipe-down + back remain).
  • Bigger tap targets on the viewer's action icons.
