Indiana 79401338d5 fix: three real sensor-lifecycle and honesty bugs (verified, not assumed)
From the audit whose verifier agents all died on session limits — so I
checked each claim myself rather than trusting it. One was WRONG and is
left alone; three were real.

REFUTED, deliberately unchanged: "the EMF support check is a false
positive, dead on iOS". The iOS gesture flow is correctly implemented
(EmfSensorListener.needsPermission/requestPermission) and the panel calls
it before start(). Nothing to fix; "fixing" it would have broken working
code.

1. Microphone never released when the panel unmounts mid-getUserMedia.
   `this.stream` is only assigned after the await, so stop() during the
   permission prompt found null and released nothing — then the promise
   resolved, set running = true, and the mic went live *after* teardown,
   staying on for the page's life with the recording indicator lit and an
   orphaned rAF loop burning battery. Fixed with a generation counter that
   makes the await cancellable. Proven: the new test fails without the
   guard and passes with it (verified by reverting it).

2. Same bug class in the RTL-SDR panel: sdrRef.current is assigned after
   requestDevice()+open(), so unmounting during the device picker left the
   dongle claimed AND started a sweep against a dead component — only a
   tab close would free it. Added a mountedRef check, mirroring the guard
   EmfPanel already had.

3. EVP blamed the seeker for refusals that never happened. A bare
   `catch {}` set "you refused the microphone" for every failure, so an
   insecure http:// origin, a machine with no mic, and a mic held by
   another app all told the user to go fix a permission that was never
   denied. Now classified from the DOMException name into four honest
   causes (denied / insecure / absent / busy), each with its own copy and
   a working alternative, in both languages.

375 frontend tests pass; i18n parity gate passes.
