Subject: [PATCH] 1.2.3: sign in through the new NikoAuth SSO (browser handoff)

The web chat moved from the in-app Google flow to NikoAuth (auth.n1ko.dev);
the old bridge no longer exists, so sign-in was impossible: the WebView
follows /api/auth/start out to the SSO host, and every non-chat host opens
in the system browser.

Sign-in now leaves for the system browser on purpose: the app intercepts
/api/auth/start and appends app=1, and the server answers the finished
callback with the /app-auth App Link, which hands the fresh session back
into the app's WebView (google blocks its own login inside WebViews, so
that round trip cannot happen in-app).

-Native "Continue with Google" is attempted in this order:
-
-1. **Credential Manager** (modern GMS) — the standard account sheet;
-2. **legacy Google Sign-In API** — this is what **microG** implements, so the
-   native picker works on de-Googled ROMs with microG and a Google account
-   added there;
-3. **browser flow** — used when neither provider is available (no GMS, no
-   microG, or cancelled); the browser returns to the app through the
-   `nikogpt://auth` deep link and the session lands in the WebView.
-
-Native sign-in needs an **Android-type OAuth client** in the same Google Cloud
-project, with the app's package name (`dev.n1ko.nikogpt`) and the SHA-1 of the
-signing certificate. The web client id (from the server) is passed as
-`serverClientId`.
+All credentials live on NikoAuth (`auth.n1ko.dev`): password, e-mail codes,
+2FA and Google. The app opens the login in the system browser — Google
+refuses WebView logins, and a WebView never shares the browser's cookie jar —
+and comes back through a verified App Link
+(`https://chat.n1ko.dev/app-auth?...`) once the login is done; the server
+hands the fresh session to the app's WebView on that link. Requires the
+release certificate's SHA-256 in the bot's `web.android_cert_sha256` for
+App Links verification.
