Summary
Why
A temporary Wi-Fi or Airplane Mode interruption currently makes the remote desktop session terminal. iOS loses the active transport, macOS can retain stale UI state, and recovery requires another QR scan and manual verification.
The reconnect must reuse the verified pairing, reject stale events, and remain active until the user explicitly stops it.
Impact
The existing remote desktop session now recovers automatically during the same desktop process lifetime. Each restored connection uses fresh TLS and session keys. Desktop invitation private keys are not persisted across a desktop restart.
This branch also includes the background-session and iOS 27 compatibility work from #7234 and #7266.
