dispatchKeyEvent() intercepts DPAD/media keys and re-dispatches real
KeyEvents into the WebView per the design spec's mapping table:
- DPAD center / Play-Pause -> Space
- DPAD Left/Right tap -> Arrow (5s seek); held -> Shift+Arrow (30s
seek), throttled to ~1 event/200ms since Android's own key-repeat
rate would otherwise flood the room's sync socket
- DPAD Up/Down + media Prev/Next -> P/N (title change, not
ArrowUp/Down - those are explicit no-ops in the website's TV mode
since volume is TV/AVR-controlled)
- Back: room list -> no-op; in a room + fullscreen -> Escape
(browser exits fullscreen natively); in a room + not fullscreen ->
navigate to /tv (native WebView navigation, not a website reaction)
- Menu (KEYCODE_MENU) deliberately NOT intercepted - passed through
unchanged, matching the already-confirmed-working raw-browser test
Fullscreen state comes from WebChromeClient.onShowCustomView/
onHideCustomView (needed for HTML5 video fullscreen support anyway).
Current-page tracking comes from WebViewClient.onPageFinished.

Gradle wrapper pinned to 8.7, AGP 8.5.2, compileSdk 34/minSdk 21/
targetSdk 34 - the tested combination from the original app.
MainActivity is a placeholder that just loads BuildConfig.WEBSITE_URL
(the new /tv room-list route); the real key-mapping logic is a
separate follow-up commit.
Note for future builds on this machine: Android Studio's bundled JBR
is JDK 25, which Gradle 8.7 cannot run on at all (crashes at startup
with a bare version-string error). Built and verified with a
separately-installed Temurin JDK 21 instead
(C:\Users\GGB\jdks\jdk-21.0.12.1+1) - set JAVA_HOME to that for any
Gradle command in this repo, not the Android Studio JBR.
