Lotus permalinks (#130) were built from window.location.origin. In the
desktop app that's the local tauri-plugin-localhost server (hash-routed), so
"Copy Lotus Link" copied e.g. http://localhost:…/#/home/!room…, which works
for nobody else. And the link recogniser only knew that local base, so a real
https://chat.lotusguild.org/home/… link in a message opened the browser
instead of the room.

- useLotusShareBase: in the desktop app, links for other people use config
  `webAppUrl` (https only, set by cinny-desktop #23) in web path-routing
  form; otherwise the origin, as before. Used by "Copy Lotus Link" on
  messages, the space menu and space tabs.
- The recogniser accepts several bases: the origin, plus `webAppUrl` in the
  desktop app.
- The web app is unchanged.

Verified with a simulated desktop (Tauri bridge + webAppUrl) against a local
Synapse. Copied links are https://chat.lotusguild.org/home/<room>/<event> and
https://chat.lotusguild.org/<space>. A public link in a message renders as
the room pill and clicking it opens the room in-app, with nothing sent to the
system browser. The web app still copies origin links. Unit tests for the
base selection; Playwright 20 passed.
