lockbitchat 73850f423c Security: Fix critical global exposure vulnerability in WebRTC Manager
- Remove dangerous global window exposure of encryption keys and manager instance
- Replace window.webrtcManager/globalWebRTCManager with secure limited API
- Add window.secureBitChat with validated public methods only
- Implement automatic monitoring for unauthorized global exposure attempts
- Add security integrity checks and emergency shutdown capability
- Prevent access to sensitive data (encryption keys, session data, internal methods)
- Maintain full functionality while securing internal implementation

BREAKING CHANGE: window.webrtcManager is no longer available
MIGRATION: Use window.secureBitChat.sendMessage() instead of window.webrtcManager.sendMessage()

Security Impact: CRITICAL - Prevents XSS attacks from accessing encryption keys
Tested: All functionality preserved, file transfers working, connections stable
