Complete the mandatory receiver-consent gate that was wired in the
backend but never connected to the UI callback chain:

- Add the missing onIncomingFileRequest (4th) callback to
  setFileTransferCallbacks in app.jsx — its absence caused
  handleFileTransferStart to auto-reject every incoming file.
- Remove independent callback registration from FileTransferComponent;
  the component was overwriting app-level callbacks on mount and
  nulling all four on unmount, silently breaking progress/received/
  error handlers whenever the panel was hidden.
- Lift pendingIncomingFiles state to the root component so consent
  prompts are shown regardless of panel visibility; auto-open the
  panel on incoming request.
- Add getReceivedFileObjectURL / revokeReceivedFileObjectURL on
  EnhancedSecureWebRTCManager for download buttons in the panel.
- Update file-transfer-ui-cleanup regression test to match the new
  single-owner callback architecture.
- All 14 tests pass; clean production build.

## v4.8.8 — File transfer consent fix
This patch completes the mandatory receiver-consent gate for incoming file transfers and resolves a callback ownership conflict that caused every incoming file request to be silently auto-rejected.
### Fixed
- Wired up the missing fourth `onIncomingFileRequest` callback in the main `setFileTransferCallbacks` call. Without it, `handleFileTransferStart` always saw `null` for the consent handler and auto-rejected every incoming file silently.
- Removed independent callback registration from `FileTransferComponent`. The component was overwriting the application-level callbacks on mount and nulling all four on unmount, which destroyed the progress, received, and error handlers whenever the panel was hidden.
- Centralized incoming-consent state (`pendingIncomingFiles`) in the root application component so consent prompts appear regardless of whether the file-transfer panel is currently visible.
- Auto-opens the file-transfer panel when an incoming request arrives so the user sees the Accept / Reject prompt immediately.
- Added `getReceivedFileObjectURL` / `revokeReceivedFileObjectURL` helpers to `EnhancedSecureWebRTCManager` so the panel can offer a download button for completed transfers without relying on captured callback closures.
- Updated `file-transfer-ui-cleanup` regression test to match the new single-owner callback architecture.
### Security
No change to the cryptographic or transport-level security model. Sender chunks are still gated behind an explicit `file_transfer_response` from the receiver before any data is transmitted.
### Verification
- `npm test` — all 14 tests pass.
- `npm run build` — clean production build.
## v4.8.7 — WebRTC manual join reliability patch
This patch improves manual WebRTC setup across separate devices and restrictive local networks.
