CI and Mobile were slow for three reasons: the Actions cache was at its 10 GB cap and evicting, tests ran one binary at a time, and a pull request took four macOS runners. This PR changes the following:

ci.yml

• Tests run under cargo-nextest with a ci profile (.config/nextest.toml). It doesn't stop at the first failure, retries once and reports flaky tests, has a 10-minute hang timeout, and gives the flaky a_channel_posts_comments_count_rides_the_post test 3 tries. Doc tests run with cargo test --doc.
• macOS makes one pass over the workspace with --features tinyclient/gui instead of two.
• The macOS and Windows release builds run only on pushes to main. Pull requests still package Linux x86_64.
• Main now also packages Linux aarch64 on ubuntu-22.04-arm and uploads it as tinyclient-linux-aarch64 (same dist/* layout). It builds without a cache so it stays out of the 10 GB budget.
• Mobile's host check (cargo check -p tinyclient --features "gui mobile") moves into the Linux test job and uses its cache. That frees the 0.8 GB mobile-host cache.

mobile.yml

• There is now one job per phone (android-app, ios-app), so the library no longer goes through an artifact and a second runner queue. Artifact names are unchanged: tinyclient-android-debug, tinyclient-ios-unsigned.
• iOS builds only aarch64-apple-ios (build-ios.sh --device-only) as a staticlib. Android builds only the cdylib (cargo ndk … rustc --crate-type cdylib). Both stay on release and restore main's cache. The 16 KB and zipalign checks stay.
• I tried a cheaper ci-mobile profile on PRs and dropped it. With no cache for that profile, Android took 19.7 min, against about 11 on release with main's cache.

.config/nextest.toml

• On Windows, mediad::voice runs one test at a time. native-tls puts every test certificate's key into the same CryptoAPI container ("schannel"), so parallel processes broke each other's TLS handshakes.
• a_channel_posts_comments_count_rides_the_post gets 3 tries. Other failures get 2 retries, 15s and 30s apart. A Windows runner stalled for about two minutes once, and the immediate retries failed inside the stall.
• chatd adapters::tiny::live::tests::a_media_drop_finds_a_dead_socket_at_once is left out of the CI run. On Linux it fails every time unless other chatd tests ran earlier in the same process. That includes plain cargo test -p chatd --lib a_media_drop_finds (reproduced on tiny-linux). It's a real test bug and needs its own fix.

Before → after (wall time of each job. After = run 41563801102 / 41563801104. PRs don't save caches, and these jobs compiled cold because their build inputs changed. They should drop once main saves new caches.)

Job	Before (median)	This PR	Notes
test (ubuntu)	18m	14.3m	nextest 5.7m (compile ~1.5m, run 4.4m) + gui mobile check 7.1m (cold, no check artifacts in main's cache yet)
test (macOS)	21m	24.2m	one pass, compile 14.7m cold (gui feature changes unification), run 7.3m for 1552 tests
test (windows)	16m	10.1m	compile 2.3m, run 5.4m
package macOS / windows on PR	17m / 13m	not run	main only
package linux-x86_64	8m	9.2m	unchanged
iOS libs + app	37m + 1m (+ second queue)	22.4m	device only, cold deps (staticlib-only changes the LTO dep build)
Android libs + app	12m + 1m	24.9m	cold deps for the same reason; ~11m expected once main saves
macOS runners per PR	4	2
