feat(dred): continuous DRED tuning, PMTUD, extended Opus6k window

- DredTuner: maps live network metrics (loss/RTT/jitter) to continuous
  DRED duration every ~500ms instead of discrete tier-locked values.
  Includes jitter-spike detection for pre-emptive Starlink-style boost.
- Opus6k DRED extended from 500ms to 1040ms (max libopus 1.5 supports)
- PMTUD: quinn MtuDiscoveryConfig with upper_bound=1452, 300s interval
- TrunkedForwarder respects discovered MTU (was hard-coded 1200)
- QuinnPathSnapshot exposes quinn internal stats + discovered MTU
- AudioEncoder trait: set_expected_loss() + set_dred_duration() methods
- PathMonitor: sliding-window jitter variance for spike detection
- Integrated into both Android and desktop send tasks in engine.rs
- 14 new tests (10 tuner unit + 4 encoder integration)
- Updated ARCHITECTURE.md, PROGRESS.md, PRD-dred-integration, PRD-mtu

//! Continuous DRED tuning from real-time network metrics.
//!
//! Instead of locking DRED duration to 3 discrete quality tiers (100/200/500 ms),
//! `DredTuner` maps live path quality metrics to a continuous DRED duration and
//! expected-loss hint, updated every N packets. This makes DRED reactive within
//! ~200 ms instead of waiting for 3+ consecutive bad quality reports to trigger
//! a full tier transition.
//!
//! The tuner also implements pre-emptive jitter-spike detection ("sawtooth"
//! prediction): when jitter variance spikes >30% over a 200 ms window — typical
//! of Starlink satellite handovers — it temporarily boosts DRED to the maximum
//! allowed for the current codec before packets actually start dropping.
