fix(clients): dial-first reconnect — don't gate the connect on mDNS presence
A saved host that stopped advertising on mDNS but has a learned Wake-on-LAN MAC was routed into a wake-and-WAIT-for-mDNS flow instead of being dialed. For a host reached over a routed network (Tailscale/VPN/another subnet) mDNS never sees it, so the wait could never succeed and reconnects were impossible — the host log showed no connection attempt at all. The tile's Offline pip and this connect gate shared the same LAN-only `advertises`/`liveAdvert` predicate, so a perfectly reachable host read as unreachable. The first connect worked only because the MAC hadn't been learned yet (a direct dial); once learned, every reconnect wedged in the waker. All four full clients carried this pattern (deliberate mirrors of the Apple `HostWaker`). Each now DIALS FIRST: fire the magic packet up front (fire-and-forget — harmless if the host is awake, and a genuinely-asleep box is booting while the dial times out) and attempt the connection unconditionally. Only a FAILED dial falls into the visible "Waking…" wait, whose redial carries no fallback so it can't loop. A fingerprint-mismatch/trust-rejection failure means the host ANSWERED, so it never takes the wake path. - apple: SessionModel.connect gains `onUnreachable`; startSession dials first. - linux (relm4): AppMsg::WakeConnect wakes+dials; a per-request wake_fallback is armed and consumed in SessionExited, matched by fingerprint/address. - windows: initiate_waking + ConnectOpts.wake_on_fail; the worker's Failed arm escalates to wake_and_connect only on a non-trust failure. - android: doConnectDirect gains onFailure; doConnect wakes+dials first. Decky was already correct (always launches `--connect`; WoL fire-and-forget). Explicit "Wake host" menu actions are unchanged — waiting on mDNS is right when the user explicitly asked to wake a box.
