fix(nav): the library sometimes showed the legacy screen — map 'home' inside showScreen (#923)

Testers: "randomly, when moving to the library from another menu option, the library shows the
old interface — never when a song ends."

━━━ WHAT WAS ACTUALLY HAPPENING ━━━

#home is the PRE-V3 library screen. The v3 shell replaced it with #v3-songs, and the mapping DID
exist — but only inside WRAPPERS on window.showScreen, and only for callers that go through
`window`. THREE independent parties monkey-patch it, each capturing whatever happens to be there
at the time:

    app.js publishes the raw function
      -> shell.js wraps it, adding the home -> v3-songs mapping
      -> the stems plugin wraps it AGAIN (src/main.js:1029), capturing the current value

Plugins load ASYNCHRONOUSLY. The chain links up in whatever order the race settles, and any
capture taken before shell.js installs — or any re-assignment after it — silently drops the
mapping. Hence "randomly".

AND THE INTERNAL CALLERS NEVER TOUCHED window.showScreen AT ALL. closeCurrentSong and the
Esc-from-settings shortcut call the IMPORTED showScreen, which no wrapper ever sees. Reproduced
in a browser: the unwrapped function with 'home' lands on the dead legacy screen EVERY time.

"Never when a song ends" is the tell, and it is what identified the mechanism: closeCurrentSong
resolves its target through _resolvePlayerOrigin(), which ALREADY applies this mapping. That one
path was fine — which is exactly why the bug looked random rather than total.

PRE-EXISTING, not a regression from the module carve: the onclick="showScreen('home')" links and
the wrapper-only mapping both date to 2026-06-22.

━━━ THE FIX ━━━

The guard lives inside showScreen now: ONE place, in the function every caller routes through,
instead of a chain of monkey-patches that must each remember. Wrapper order stops mattering, and
the module-internal callers are covered for the first time.

Verified in a browser: the raw, unwrapped showScreen('home') — which reproduced as #home — now
lands on #v3-songs, and cannot be undone by any wrapper order.

━━━ AND A [P1] I INTRODUCED, WHICH CODEX CAUGHT ━━━

My first cut mapped BOTH 'home' and 'v3-home', copied straight from _resolvePlayerOrigin.

That is correct THERE and wrong HERE. _resolvePlayerOrigin computes where to RETURN TO after a
song, and landing on the Songs list from the dashboard is the right behaviour. But #v3-home is
the v3 DASHBOARD — a real screen that the shell's Home nav, the onboarding tour and the dashboard
re-render listener all target. Redirecting it would have made Home unreachable.

A LEGACY ALIAS IS NOT THE SAME THING AS A RETURN TARGET. Only 'home' is mapped now, and a test
pins that: re-adding 'v3-home' to the guard fails it.

4 tests, bite-tested both ways.

// showScreen('home') must never land on the LEGACY library screen when v3 is present.
//
// Testers: "randomly, when moving to the library from another menu option, the library shows the
// old interface — never when a song ends."
//
// #home is the pre-v3 library screen. The v3 shell replaced it with #v3-songs, and the mapping
// DID exist — but only inside wrappers on `window.showScreen`, which fail two ways:
//
// 1. ORDER. THREE independent parties monkey-patch window.showScreen, each capturing whatever
// is there at the time: app.js publishes the raw function, shell.js wraps it to add the
// mapping, and the stems plugin wraps it again. Plugins load ASYNCHRONOUSLY, so the chain
// links up in whatever order the race settles. A capture taken before shell.js installs —
// or any re-assignment after it — silently drops the mapping. Hence "randomly".
//
// 2. THE INTERNAL CALLERS BYPASS window.showScreen ENTIRELY. closeCurrentSong and the
// Esc-from-settings shortcut call the IMPORTED showScreen, which no wrapper ever sees.
// Verified in a browser: the unwrapped function with 'home' lands on #home, always.
//
// "Never when a song ends" is the tell: closeCurrentSong resolves its target through
// _resolvePlayerOrigin(), which already applied the mapping — so that one path was fine.
