JMR-devandClaude Opus 5 650ca8fca3 Pick a file the way a user does, then rotate the phone
Two things nothing in this repo asserted, and they are one test class because
separately the second one asserts nothing new.

THE PICKER. ConverterScreen opens SAF with a MIME filter, and a filter is a thing
that can hide the user's file. Narrow it and the app still builds, still renders,
and still passes every JVM test -- the user taps "Choose file" and gets an empty
picker. The round trip now runs for real: DocumentsUI is driven with UiAutomator to
a fixture root, and the app is asserted to come back with the file.

The file card's name is not the only assertion, because a name proves less than it
looks: it comes from a metadata query, which a URI with no read grant answers just
as well. The "Container: MP4" detail row only appears once something has opened the
file and read its header, so it is what says the picker handed back a URI the app
can USE.

THE ROTATION. MainActivity declares no configChanges, and ConversionViewModel holds
the picked file in a plain MutableStateFlow with NO SavedStateHandle behind it.
Nothing persists it. The only thing that carries it across a rotation is the
ViewModelStore the Activity retains -- which no test anywhere asserted.

Two guards run before that assertion, because both ways it could pass while proving
nothing are silent: the display rotation really changed, and MainActivity really was
a different instance afterwards. Without the second one this is a recomposition test
wearing a rotation's name.

MUTATIONS, RUN RATHER THAN ASSERTED, on a local API 34 emulator.

Narrowing the filter to arrayOf("application/x-lmc-no-such-type") takes the fixture
root out of the picker entirely -- DocumentsUI matches the request against
Root.COLUMN_MIME_TYPES and drops roots that cannot answer -- and both tests fail:

  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: the system picker never showed
      BySelector [TEXT='\QLMC R38 fixtures\E']

Making the ViewModel composition-scoped fails ONLY the rotation test:

  androidx.compose.ui.test.ComposeTimeoutException: Condition (a node tagged
      converter.fileCard.name exists) still not satisfied after 30000 ms

and :app:testDebugUnitTest stays BUILD SUCCESSFUL under it. That divergence is what
#64 exists to establish and what its own comment doubted; the PR body has the
verdict and why the doubt was reasonable.

THE PROVIDER HAD TO BE JAVA. It is the only Java file in the module. A
manifest-declared provider is a component of the instrumentation PACKAGE, so the
system starts a plain org.libremediaconverter.test process for it with only the test
APK on its dex path -- and the test APK is built without the Kotlin stdlib, because
the app APK has it and duplicating it is what checkDebugAndroidTestDuplicateClasses
prevents. The Kotlin draft died on its first query:

  java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Lkotlin/jvm/internal/Intrinsics;
      at org.libremediaconverter.saf.FixtureDocumentsProvider.queryDocument

The compiler emits that reference for the null checks on nearly every function, so
no Kotlin dialect avoids it. Same reason nothing in that file imports androidx.

No new test tags: CHOOSE_FILE, FILE_CARD_NAME and detailRow already named both ends.
