Logan Johnson 8f80b172ea fix(mobile): stop asking for an API token when the channel list is refused (#9327)
## Summary
- When the relay refused the channel-list request (HTTP 401), the mobile
app said "Not authorized. Check your API token." The app has no API
token, so the advice could not be followed.
- The message now reads "This community couldn't authenticate the
request. Try again." Retry stays: for org and hosted communities the
refused token is dropped and Retry gets a fresh one, and a self-hosted
relay that refuses the key has no other recovery on this screen.
- One exception: when the organization sign-in has ended, the app sends
reads unsigned and Retry can never succeed, while the Home banner
already offers a working Sign in. In that state the channel list says
"Use the sign-in prompt below to reconnect." and hides Retry.

## Details
- `_ErrorView`
(`mobile/lib/features/channels/channels_page/badges.dart`) only appears
on a cold load with no saved channel list. It replaces the list, so
Retry is the only control on that screen.
- It reuses the shared `organizationSignInPromptVisible` predicate, the
same one the Home banner and the community switcher use, so the error
view and the banner agree on who owns the action.
- The 403 "Access denied." message is unchanged.
- Widget tests cover the new 401 copy with Retry, and the signed-out
organization state with no Retry.

## Screenshots
Android emulator, debug build, against a local test relay that refuses
the channel-list read with HTTP 401 (no saved channel list, so the error
view shows):
