WalkthroughAndroid and iOS now run legacy experimental database migrations during application startup.

Pay attention this should target single server branch.
Pre-4.73 experimental builds stored WatermelonDB files as <name>-experimental.db.db; unified builds use <name>.db.db. Without a rename, upgraders silently start with an empty database. Rename legacy files when the unified name is missing; never overwrite; never break startup.
iOS builds had IS_OFFICIAL hardcoded false, so every pre-4.73 install stored WatermelonDB files as <name>-experimental.db in the App Group container; unified builds use <name>.db. Rename legacy files when the unified name is missing; never overwrite; never break startup.
- Skip a database entirely when its unified target already has data, so a stale -wal/-shm is never moved next to a different database. - Move sidecars before the main file and stop if one fails, keeping the database and its WAL paired; an interrupted run resumes on next launch. - Replace a 0-byte target on iOS, which NotificationService's sqlite3_open leaves behind when a push arrives before the first launch. - Match the legacy suffix only at the end of the name.

Review of the legacy database migration. One high-severity finding appears on both platforms: a failed sidecar move strands the legacy data. The fix is a single uniform move loop, which also shortens the code. The other comments are low severity. Nit: MainApplication.kt lines 69–73 add a blank line and trailing whitespace, and AppDelegate.swift line 25 is a whitespace-only change.

Severity: Low (one crash, fixed on the next launch). Likelihood: Very low (needs a push at the exact moment of first launch after the upgrade).
What happens (ELI5)
The Notification Service extension is a separate process that can open <name>.db at any time, and sqlite3_open creates an empty file if none exists. If it does that between removeItem(at: target) on line 101 and moveItem on line 103, the move fails because the destination exists, and we hit fatalError. On the next launch the target is 0 bytes, so the migration runs again and succeeds. That makes this a single crash, not data loss.
Steps to reproduce
- Install a <=4.72.0 build, log in, and upgrade to this build.
- Send a push notification so that the extension runs during the first launch after the upgrade.
- The extension creates
<name>.dbbetween lines 101 and 103. moveItemthrows and the app crashes. The next launch migrates normally.
Proposed change
Optional, and fine to leave as is. replaceItemAt replaces the destination in a single step instead of delete-then-move:
_ = try fileManager.replaceItemAt(to, withItemAt: from)Move sidecars and the main file in one loop with the main file last, so a failed helper move aborts startup instead of stranding legacy data behind a fresh target DB. Also use applicationInfo.dataDir on Android and drop the no-op try/catch.

Proposed changes
Pre-4.73 whitelabel builds stored data in WatermelonDB files with the
-experimentalsuffix. After we removed the experimental version and moved everything to the official one, upgrading from an experimental build to the official one lands the user on a blank login screen with nothing to see, and they have to clear app data to use the app.This PR carries over the existing local data on upgrade, so users stay logged in with their chats intact on both Android and iOS.
