enricobuehlerandClaude Opus 4.8 e6fbcecdb9 fix(clients/windows): GUI text inputs read the live value, not a stale render snapshot
A component() page re-renders reliably only when its props change: root wraps
every screen in a stable animated border, so once the entrance tween settles the
reconciler skips that unchanged-props subtree and a page's own use_state writes
never force a re-render. Three text fields read their value at click time from
that stranded local state:

- PIN pairing sent an empty PIN, so pairing always failed with "wrong PIN, or not
  armed?" — the reported bug. The CLI --pair path bypasses the reactor and worked.
- "Add host" Connect captured the empty mount-time address and silently did
  nothing (you open the modal precisely when the host isn't being discovered, so
  no discovery tick re-renders the page while you type).
- Rename round-tripped the draft through an always-deferred AsyncSetState into a
  controlled text box, fighting the caret on fast typing and dropping the last
  character when Save was clicked before the write landed.

Fix: hold each field's live value in a use_ref cell written on every keystroke
and read at commit time (uncontrolled input), instead of a render-time snapshot.
Rename is seeded when its target changes and no longer re-renders the whole page
per keystroke. Reviewed the rest of the app (settings, speed test, library,
stream, connect/request-access/waking, forget) — all driven by root-state props
and wired correctly.
