fix(pairing): close deferred-offline reclaim race + idempotent same-code adopt (#192)
A fresh unclaimed player that reconnects (same fingerprint) INSIDE the server's
~5s deferred-offline grace hit a false 'active on another connection' reclaim
reject, then collided on UNIQUE(devices.pairing_code) on the fall-through INSERT
and wedged unclaimed with no content. Real trial customer (web player) hit it.

server/ws/deviceSocket.js:
- Fix A (guard): gate the liveConn reclaim reject on !inDeferredOffline
  (pendingOfflines.has(id)). A device mid-deferred-offline is a zombie, not live,
  so a same-fingerprint reconnect is a legit reconnect, not a hijack. A genuinely
  live socket (never disconnected -> no pending-offline) still rejects a cloned
  fingerprint -> anti-hijack boundary preserved (documented).
- Fix B (idempotency): when the unclaimed old row holds the SAME pairing_code the
  reconnecting player presents, ADOPT/refresh it (mirror the claimed-reclaim path,
  but no device:paired) instead of INSERT-colliding. Differing-code case unchanged.
- deferOffline is NOT shrunk (it exists to prevent transient-blip flapping).

server/player/index.html:
- The cold-boot flap source: an unfiltered pageshow handler ran verifyLivenessSoon()
  on every load, opening+registering a socket early, which the boot connect() then
  tore down and rebuilt (connect->register->disconnect->reconnect). Guard it with
  ev.persisted (mirror the pagehide guard) so only real bfcache restores trigger it.

server/test/pairing-race.test.js:
- Forces the race against the real socket server (log-gated reconnect inside the
  deferred-offline window), asserts no false reject / no UNIQUE collision / single
  claimable row; + a hijack case asserting a cloned fingerprint on a genuinely-live
  display is still rejected. Web- and android-shaped fingerprints. Fails 2/4 on
  pre-fix code, 4/4 with the fix.

// Pairing-race (fix/pairing-race-1.9.9) — PROVES the deferred-offline zombie race is closed.
//
// THE BUG (now fixed in ws/deviceSocket.js): on socket disconnect the server defers
// heartbeat.removeConnection() by OFFLINE_DEBOUNCE_MS (~5s) via `pendingOfflines`, so
// heartbeat.getConnection() keeps returning a "live" ZOMBIE for the grace window. A
// same-fingerprint reconnect INSIDE that window used to hit the fingerprint-reclaim
// guard and false-reject with device:auth-error, and for an UNCLAIMED row the retry then
// INSERTed the on-screen pairing_code the zombie still held -> UNIQUE constraint failed:
// devices.pairing_code -> wedged, unclaimed player.
//
// WHAT WE VALIDATE:
// CASE 1 — a same-fingerprint + same-code reconnect INSIDE the deferred-offline window is
// NOT rejected, does NOT collide on UNIQUE(pairing_code), and settles to exactly ONE
// still-claimable row (Fix A gate `!inDeferredOffline` + Fix B same-code adopt).
// CASE 2 — a genuinely-live display (never disconnected, so NO pending-offline armed) STILL
// rejects a cloned-fingerprint takeover with device:auth-error (Fix A did not open a hole).
//
// Both cases run for a web-style fingerprint AND an android-style (SHA-256 hex) fingerprint.
//
// HARNESS: spawn the real server.js against a temp DATA_DIR + socket.io-client, mirroring
// fingerprint-reclaim.test.js. DETERMINISM: to guarantee socket B reconnects AFTER socket A's
// server-side disconnect has ARMED the pending-offline timer (and BEFORE the 5s timer fires),
// we poll the server log for the exact line the disconnect handler prints
// ("Device disconnected: <id> (offline transition deferred ...)"). That line is emitted on the
// same synchronous tick, immediately before pendingOfflines.set(...), so observing it proves the
// zombie window is open — no wall-clock sleep, no reliance on a fixed reconnect budget.
