merge: fold in lotus commits e36aef8a..cbd42bf9 landed during the v0.25.0 sync

Six fix(lotus) commits reached `lotus` while the upstream merge was in
progress (deafen via global output mute, denoise race/fallback fixes,
strictOriginCheck on the widget transport, call_state standalone skip,
set_quality null-clears-cap, plus four new src/lotus/*.test.ts files).
Merged them on top of the v0.25.0 sync so this branch is a superset of
current `lotus`.

One conflict, src/lotus/lotusDenoiseProcessor.ts: the sync commit had
dropped a meaningless `void` (oxlint no-meaningless-void-operator) on a
line the incoming commit also touched; kept the void-less form so oxlint
stays clean.

Verification after the fold-in (Node 24.11.1 / pnpm 11.21.0): tsc clean;
oxlint clean; oxfmt --check clean; knip exit 0; vitest unit 88 files /
639 passed / 9 skipped; build:embedded OK, staged to embedded/web/dist,
all six io.lotus.* actions present in the bundle.
