Synapse deletes sliding sync connections that have been unused for 7 days. When
an OEM battery manager has kept the application frozen for longer than that, the
next sliding sync request is answered 400 M_UNKNOWN_POS.
The Rust SDK handles that: it resets `pos` and, in offline mode, restarts the
sync. When that recovery gives up, the sync service ends up in the Error or
Terminated state and stops for good, and it is then up to the application to
call start() again. Element X iOS does it, we do not: SyncOrchestrator only
restarts the sync service when its state is Idle, so the sync stays dead for the
rest of the process lifetime.
Nothing recovers from there. The sync never reaches Running, so
waitForE2eeInitializationTasks() never returns, the session verified status
stays Unknown, and the FTUE is stuck on WaitingForInitialState. Clearing the
application data is the only workaround.
Restart the sync service when it is in the Error or Terminated state, with an
exponential backoff from 1s to 30s to avoid hammering a failing homeserver. The
backoff is only reset once the sync service has been running for a while, since
startSync() moves the state to Running right away.

emptyNode() renders nothing at all, which is fine for a placeholder that is left
within a few frames, but makes the application look frozen when the wait can
last, or never end.
Add a delayBeforeShowingContent parameter to emptyNode(): when it is finite, a
progress indicator and a "Loading…" label fade in after that delay, reusing the
existing DelayedVisibility helper. It defaults to Duration.INFINITE, so the
splash screen keeps rendering an empty canvas.
Use a one second delay on the two placeholders which are not guaranteed to be
left: the FTUE one, rendered while waiting for the session verified status, and
the LoggedInFlowNode one, rendered while the FTUE state is unknown.

sessionPaths keeps pointing at the directories of the account which has
just been logged in, and it was never reset. Adding another account
calls setHomeserver(), whose rotateSessionPath() starts by deleting the
directories of the previous sessionPaths, so the file and cache
directories of the first account were wiped.
finalizeClientCreation() now forgets the session paths once the login
succeeded. It is done there rather than in clear() on purpose: after a
failed attempt the directories are orphaned and must still be deleted by
the rotateSessionPath() of the next attempt.

Since the login flows stopped handing their client over to
RustMatrixClientFactory and let finalizeClientCreation() build a fresh
one from the SessionData, two problems appeared.
The client built by loginWithQrCode() was never owned by anyone: it is
not assigned to currentClient, so clear() had nothing to close and the
Rust Client stayed open for the whole app lifetime, holding the session
stores of the freshly logged in account. It is now tracked in
currentClient, and also disposed of when the QR login fails, which is
safe because that flow always builds its own client.
The client of the session was also built while the login client was
still open. Both use the same session paths, so their state and crypto
SQLite stores, and the search index when message search is enabled, were
opened twice at the same time with no cross process lock to protect
them. clear() now runs before the final client is created.

* Update dependency org.matrix.rustcomponents:sdk-android to v26.09.08
* Fix API breaks:
- There's no `SyncServiceBuilder.withProfilesExtension()` method anymore. This is now enabled unconditionally in the SDK.
- Timeline filters no longer use the `org.matrix.rustcomponents.sdk.TimelineEventFilter` FFI wrapper, but the `uniffi.matrix_sdk_ui.TimelineEventFilter` type directly. This also changes the underlying types used for inclusion/exclusion.

Fix API breaks:
- A new `Mentions` room list filter is available.
- `RoomListService.subscribeToRooms` is now `RoomListService.setRoomSubscriptions`.
- `enableAutomaticBackPagination` moved from `Client` to `ClientBuilder`.
