HyperBridge Dev 6

This release represents a significant architectural update to the notification processing engine. The primary focus is on stability, resolving race conditions, and preparing the backend infrastructure for upcoming customization features.

🏗️ Backend Foundations

• Custom Action Icons Architecture: I have implemented the underlying logic required to support user-defined icons for notification actions. While the user interface for this feature is not yet enabled, the foundation is now in place. Once the stability of this release is confirmed by the community, the customization UI will be introduced in the next update.

🐛 Critical Bug Fixes

• Advanced Title & Text Resolution ([BUG]  #66 [BUG] Map issue, YouTube issue #56): I have engineered a smarter way to extract notification content. Previously, notifications using BigPictureStyle or BigTextStyle often defaulted to showing the package name (e.g., com.whatsapp) because the "real" title was hidden in expanded metadata fields. The new engine now intelligently prioritizes EXTRA_TITLE_BIG and EXTRA_BIG_TEXT when the standard fields are generic, ensuring the actual message or contact name is always displayed.
• Eliminated "Ghost" Notifications: I have resolved a race condition that occurred when a notification was dismissed rapidly. The application now properly cancels background processing jobs immediately upon dismissal, preventing the island from lingering or appearing after the notification has been cleared.

⚡ Performance & Logic Improvements

• Smart Content Hashing: I have removed the previous time-based throttling mechanism (200ms delay). The system now utilizes Content Hashing to intelligently detect meaningful changes. This allows for immediate updates without the risk of processing redundant data.
• Instant Progress Indicators: Logic for progress-based notifications (e.g., Play Store downloads) has been optimized. These notifications now bypass the standard validation delay to ensure they appear instantly on the island.

⚠️ Note for Testers:
This version contains substantial changes to how notifications are read and processed. Please prioritize testing standard messaging and media notifications. Confirmation that the Package Name bug (#66 #56) is fully resolved is required before I proceed with enabling the Custom Icons UI.
