audio: send the AAC codec config to AAC-only sinks
...
A GalReceiver 2014 head unit, whose media sink takes only raw AAC-LC,
reset the connection on the first audio frame. Raw AAC-LC has no header
of its own, so send the AudioSpecificConfig right after Start, as video
does with SPS/PPS. PCM and ADTS sinks are unchanged.

media: opening another media app keeps the player on the one still playing

Opening AntennaPod while Metrolist played switched Gearslip's player to
AntennaPod, so the nav bar lost the music and its buttons drove the wrong app.
Leaving an app where nothing started goes back to the one that kept playing.

wireless: ignore a head unit's repeated Wi-Fi details instead of rejoining
...
ZLink head units send InfoResponse again once the stream is up. Rejoining
released the network carrying the stream, aborting it a second in, and left the
unit stuck waiting for a version request until ZLink was force closed. A session
ending mid-teardown no longer crashes the app either.

A quarter comes off when the frame rate sags while the encoder waits on acks;
two easy windows put a tenth back. If a cut doesn't help, the car's decoder is
the limit, so the cut is undone and adapting stops for that drive.
