Wes 0d19ca69d3 fix(mobile): wait for app activation before browser auth (#8647)
## Summary

Opening an invite from Safari can deliver the login request while iOS
still considers Buzz inactive. `ASWebAuthenticationSession.start()` then
returns false, showing a connection error until the user retries. Wait
for app activation before starting the retained session, with a
ten-second timeout and cancellation cleanup.

Extract the existing browser-auth bridge from the size-limited
AppDelegate and add one native journey test through its Flutter method
channel. URL validation, callback fencing, and normal active-app login
retain their existing behavior. Temporary diagnostic logging and
generated dependency changes are excluded.

### Related issue

No duplicate found in the open handoff/authentication search. Related
invite-consent work: #8601; this fixes the subsequent iOS authentication
presentation race.

### Testing

- Focused `RunnerTests/BrowserAuthBridgeTests` passed on an iPhone 18
Pro / iOS 27 simulator. Covers inactive handoff, cancellation before
activation, retry, duplicate activation notifications, and immediate
active-app start.
- A local build reproduced the original inactive-app `start=false`
failure; the fixed build opened authentication on the first
background-to-app attempt. The same fixed build subsequently completed
an existing-account staging flow.
- Mutation check passed in isolated source, Git metadata, and build
outputs: clean control passed; bypassing the production activation wait
failed the inactive-handoff assertion; restored source passed again,
with its SHA-256 verified against the committed file.
- Self-review found no blocking issue. CI and final review remain
pending. Mandatory pre-commit and pre-push hooks passed, including
mobile analysis and the hook-run Flutter suite. No full local suite was
manually invoked.
- Human acceptance: from Safari, tap **Accept invite in Buzz** and
confirm sign-in opens on the first attempt without **Try again**. Final
acceptance of this PR remains pending.

The separately reported callback failure may have involved production
rather than staging. That cause is unconfirmed and is outside this
change.
