refactor: start headless tasks for push and device sync the same way

The code that starts React Native for a headless JS task, when the
process was woken without any UI, lived inside BulwarkPushJobService.
The device sync adapters need the same start, so it moves to a shared
HeadlessJs object, with a small startTask helper next to it.

Push behaviour does not change:
- onStartJob still calls the start code on the main thread, and the
  listener-then-ready-check order is the same code, moved verbatim
- the task still starts from `UiThreadUtil.runOnUiThread`, its id is
  still recorded in that same UI-thread turn, and a refusal because the
  app came to the foreground still logs and finishes the job
- the start code now returns React Native's start task, so a caller can
  notice a start that fails (a debug build with no Metro); the push job
  ignores it

The helper documents that it must run on the main thread: the ReactHost
is created on first use without a lock, so a background caller racing
MainActivity could create a second one.

Checked with `gradlew assembleDebug -PreactNativeArchitectures=x86_64`.
