[Telecom-4] Stabilize notification-owned incoming ringing

[rahul-lohra]

Goal

Closes: #[AND-1493]

Implementation

• Suppress semantically duplicate incoming-call notification updates with an internal comparator
• Preserve the original ringing channel across unaccepted-call updates
• Defer only updates that are not duplicates
• Avoid cancelling the Android 17 ringing notification from the dismiss trampoline as it stops the ringing from notification

Public API changes

• Adds NotificationConfig.incomingRingingNotificationUpdateDelayMillis: Long, defaulting to 1_300L which will used for Android 17 and higher otherwise the ringing sound can get muted

Stack

PR 4 of 5. Depends on #1809.

Testing

• NotificationUpdateDeduplicatorTest
• CallServiceNotificationUpdateObserverTest
• StreamDefaultNotificationHandlerTest

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Improved incoming-call notification handling on Android 17 and later.
  • Duplicate notification updates are now suppressed to reduce unnecessary refreshes.
  • Incoming ringing notifications retain their alert behavior and existing channel during updates.
  • Added a configurable delay before replacing active incoming-call notifications, defaulting to 1.3 seconds.

Walkthrough

The notification system adds configurable incoming-call update delays, notification fingerprint comparison, duplicate suppression, and Android 17+ ringing-channel handling. Builder wiring and deduplicator tests support the new behavior.

Changes

Incoming call notification stabilization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Notification configuration and comparator wiring stream-video-android-core/api/stream-video-android-core.api, stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/StreamVideoBuilder.kt, stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/NotificationConfig.kt, stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/internal/StreamNotificationManager.kt	NotificationConfig adds a configurable 1,300 ms incoming ringing update delay. StreamVideoBuilder passes the selected comparator to StreamNotificationManager.
Notification comparison and duplicate suppression stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/NotificationUpdateComparator.kt, stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/internal/NotificationUpdateDeduplicator.kt, stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/dispatchers/DefaultNotificationDispatcher.kt	Notification fingerprints include notification content, actions, and normalized extras. Equivalent incoming-call updates are skipped when deduplication rules apply.
Android 17+ ringing update flow stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/handlers/StreamDefaultNotificationHandler.kt, stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/internal/service/observers/CallServiceNotificationUpdateObserver.kt, stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/internal/DismissNotificationActivity.kt	Incoming-call updates preserve the existing channel, apply ringing alert flags, delay eligible replacements, and avoid cancelling the ringtone-owning notification on Android 17+.
Deduplication behavior tests stream-video-android-core/src/test/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/notifications/internal/NotificationUpdateDeduplicatorTest.kt	Tests cover equivalent unaccepted ringing updates, accepted calls, and Android versions below Cinnamon Bun.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 84685

This change stabilizes Android 17+ incoming-call ringing notifications by preserving channels, suppressing equivalent updates, and delaying eligible replacements. No merge-blocking production risk remains.

Poem

A rabbit checks the ringing call,
Compares each update, one and all.
The channel stays, the flags shine bright,
Delays keep alerts alive at night.
Duplicate hops are skipped with care.
