fix: use MACOS UserAgent for Android browser to fix pair code registration

The web protocol (WA\x06\x03) requires a web-compatible UserAgent.
Using SMB_ANDROID in the UserAgent caused pair code registration to
fail with "cannot connect device" even though the phone confirmation
appeared. The Android identity is now only set in DeviceProps.platformType
(ANDROID_PHONE) in the registration node, which correctly determines
the display name in "Linked Devices" as "Android (14)".

Changes:
- getUserAgent(): always returns MACOS platform and Desktop device
- getClientPayload(): always includes webInfo (no longer skipped for Android)
- Remove unused isAndroidBrowser import from validate-connection.ts
- Update pair code comments documenting tested platform IDs
- Add structured logging to pair code request
