feat(frost): move a signing session's per-event columns onto FrostSigningItem

Phase 1 of docs/frost-batch-signing.md, which is added here as the plan the
next phases follow. Schema only: a session still signs exactly one event, the
wire is byte-identical, and every existing test passes on the moved columns.

## What moved, and why it had to

A batch of k events is k independent FROST instances sharing a signer set, not
one signature over k messages. That is forced rather than chosen: a Schnorr
partial signature is `s = k + e·x` with `e = H(R‖P‖m)`, so two messages under
one nonce R give two equations in one unknown and the secret share falls out.

So the five columns that enter that equation -- unsignedEventJson, eventId,
nonceRandom, aggregatedNonce, signature -- move to a child table keyed
(sessionId, itemIndex). What stays on FrostSigningSession is everything outside
it: the ceremony, the threshold, the derivation path, the signer set, and the
one approval.

itemIndex is protocol rather than presentation -- nonces and partial signatures
are joined positionally against it -- so getItems() orders by it and nothing
re-sorts. Spelled itemIndex rather than index to keep hand-written queries free
of backticks.

No itemCount column. The count is a COUNT(*), for the same reason signerIds is
derived from the ceremony's participant order rather than stored: a
denormalised count is one more thing that can disagree with the rows.

## Migration 9 -> 10

Manual, not auto: Room can create the table and drop the columns but cannot
copy between them, and the copy is the whole point. A session in flight at
upgrade holds its nonce seed and the aggregate it is already signing against,
and neither can be regenerated -- losing either makes the next pass derive a
different nonce for the same message and publish a second partial signature
over it, which is the extraction case. Both are copied verbatim into item 0, so
an in-flight session resumes as though nothing happened.

Removing the columns uses ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN rather than the usual
create-copy-drop-rename rebuild. FrostSignerMessage and FrostSigningItem both
reference FrostSigningSession(id) ON DELETE CASCADE, and DROP TABLE fires
cascades -- with foreign keys enforced the rebuild would delete every signer
message and every item just written. Whether it does depends on Room disabling
foreign keys around migrations, which is not worth depending on when
DROP COLUMN cannot go wrong. It needs SQLite 3.35 and unindexed,
unconstrained columns; these five qualify, and getRoomDatabase pins
BundledSQLiteDriver on every platform.

## Invariants established here for the phases that follow

- signerIds and every item's aggregatedNonce are one write-once unit, applied
  by applyAggregate() -- items first in one transaction, then the session, so
  "some items aggregated" is unreachable and signerIds != null stays the gate.
- Signatures likewise, via applySignatures(); isSigned() counts rows instead of
  reading a flag.
- complete() verifies every signature before applying any event, so a batch is
  all-or-nothing rather than half-filed.
- itemsOver() gives each item its own 32 bytes of seed. Independent seeds mean
  an off-by-one in index handling produces a session that fails to aggregate
  rather than one that signs two messages under a single nonce.

signedEvent() and isAwaitingApproval() now take the item(s) rather than the
session, which propagates to the repository, the view model and the screen.
advance() reads items.first() and Phase 2 turns that into a loop.

## Tests

- FrostSigningSessionDaoJvmTest: index ordering, single-item read, upsert
  replacing rather than accumulating, signed-item counting, cascade delete.
- FrostSigningItemMigrationJvmTest (new): the backfill against a real v9
  database, asserting the seed and aggregate values survive -- not merely that
  a row appeared -- plus the exact column lists Room will check at open time.
- 338 jvmTest and 217 testDebugUnitTest pass.
