20f8cb02c1 feat(mobile): verified https pairing links; custom scheme carries no secret (#27475)
* feat(mobile): verified https pairing links; custom scheme carries no secret

The desktop's copy-link now emits https://www.onorca.dev/pair#<code>, with the
code only in the fragment. Orca Mobile claims that link as a verified app link
and refuses any pairing code delivered through orca://, which any app can claim;
orca://pair alone opens the scanner with an explanation. In-app QR scan and
paste still accept the custom scheme, so older desktops and phones keep pairing.

The confirm screen shows the desktop address and host key fingerprint before
pairing. config/verified-links/ holds the apple-app-site-association,
assetlinks.json and fallback page to deploy on www.onorca.dev, with a test that
keeps them, mobile/app.config.js and the link builder in agreement.

Part of #17397.

* fix(mobile): refuse pairing codes nested in or normalized out of unverified links

The router unwraps expo-development-client ?url= links and normalizes dot
segments after +native-intent runs, so an orca:// wrapper could still deliver a
code to the confirm screen. Refuse any unverified link carrying code= at any
encoding depth, and match pairing routes on decoded, dot-free segments.

* fix(mobile): escape the apostrophe in the refused-link notice

* fix(mobile): decode escapes byte by byte before refusing nested pairing codes

An invalid UTF-8 escape made the whole escape run fail to decode, hiding an
adjacent encoded &code= that the router still decodes leniently.

* fix(mobile): ignore URL-stripped whitespace when refusing nested pairing codes

* refactor(mobile): decide pairing-link refusal on the router's own parse

Stop re-implementing URL decoding. The guard now runs expo-router's own
extractExpoPathFromURL and parseUrlUsingCustomBase, the functions its linking
applies after +native-intent, and refuses any link from which the router would
read a `code` param or reach a pairing route with a payload. A link the router
cannot parse is refused. Release builds refuse expo-development-client
wrappers outright. A property-style test walks wrapping depths, encoding
layers, stripped control characters, case and unicode, and asserts that the
guard never passes on a link from which the router would read a code.

* fix(mobile): match pairing routes on the top-level segment only

A host link with a segment named pair was sent to the scanner.
