Address the maintainer review on #949: determine the platform through the
plugin's own service layer (services.API.isMobile()) rather than Obsidian's
Platform API directly, matching the existing call in ObsidianLiveSyncSettingTab.
Applies to both PR-introduced sites: the runtime guard (ModuleObsidianEvents)
and the settings-pane toggle (PaneSyncSettings).
The TFile import becomes type-only so deps.ts is no longer pulled at runtime;
the unit test drives the platform through the services.API.isMobile() mock.

Replication is suspended when the Obsidian window becomes hidden (document.hidden),
so LiveSync and Periodic stop syncing while minimised until the window is focused.
Add keepReplicationActiveInBackground (default off, desktop only). When enabled, the
window-visibility handler no longer suspends on hide, so replication keeps running while
minimised. Becoming visible forces a teardown before reopen (LiveSync only) so a stalled,
half-open channel is always replaced.
Includes the setting definition (src/lib submodule), a desktop-only toggle in the Sync
pane shown for LiveSync and Periodic, a docs/settings.md entry, and unit tests for the
visibility handler.
This commit may contains behavioural changes.
- Fix for the issue with corrupted log displays
- Wrap the activeDocument
- Reduced potential type errors and strengthened certain checks
- Made error handling more robust (by rewriting the error class)
- Now the `report` includes recent logs (of verbosity `verbose` even settings is not set to `verbose`).
- Updating logs is now debounced to avoid excessive updates during rapid log generation.
- Added a `Generate full report for opening the issue with debug info` command to the command palette, which generates a report without opening the settings dialogue.
- Remote configuration URIs are now correctly encrypted when saved after editing in the settings dialogue.
- Fixed an issue where devices could no longer upload after another device performed 'Fresh Start Wipe' and 'Overwrite remote' in Object Storage mode (#848).
- Now surely remote configurations are editable in the settings dialogue.
- We can fetch remote settings from the remote and apply them to the local settings for each remote configuration entry.
- No longer layout breaking occurs when the description of a remote configuration entry is too long.
- No unexpected error (about a replicator) during early stage of initialisation.
### New features
- Now we can configure multiple Remote Databases of the same type, e.g, multiple CouchDBs or S3 remotes.
- We can switch between multiple Remote Databases in the settings dialogue.
Now, Self-hosted LiveSync has finally begun to be split into the Self-hosted LiveSync plugin for Obsidian, and a properly abstracted version of it.
This may not offer much benefit to Obsidian plugin users, or might even cause a slight inconvenience, but I believe it will certainly help improve testability and make the ecosystem better.
However, I do not see the point in putting something with little benefit into beta, so I am handling this on the alpha branch. I would actually preferred to create an R&D branch, but I was not keen on the ampersand, and I feel it will eventually become a proper beta anyway.
### Refactored
- Separated `ObsidianLiveSyncPlugin` into `ObsidianLiveSyncPlugin` and `LiveSyncBaseCore`.
- Now `LiveSyncCore` indicates the type specified version of `LiveSyncBaseCore`.
- Referencing `plugin.xxx` has been rewritten to referencing the corresponding service or `core.xxx`.
### Internal API changes
- Storage Access APIs are now yielding Promises. This is to allow more limited storage platforms to be supported.
### R&D
- Browser-version of Self-hosted LiveSync is now in development. This is not intended for public use now, but I will eventually make it available for testing.
- We can see the code in `src/apps/webapp` for the browser version.
- No longer `No available splitter for settings!!` errors occur after fetching old remote settings while rebuilding local database.
### Improved
- Boot sequence warning is now kept in the in-editor notification area. (#748)
### New feature
- We can now set the maximum modified time for reflect events in the settings. (for #754)
### Refactored
- Module to service refactoring has been started for better maintainability:
- UI module has been moved to UI service.
### Behaviour change
- Default chunk splitter version has been changed to `Rabin-Karp` for new installations.
- The plug-in automatically fetches the missing chunks even if `Fetch chunks on demand` is disabled.
- This change is to avoid loss of data when receiving a bulk of revisions.
- This can be prevented by enabling `Use Only Local Chunks` in the settings.
- Storage application now saved during each event and restored on startup.
- Synchronisation result application is also now saved during each event and restored on startup.
- These may avoid some unexpected loss of data when the editor crashes.
### Fixed
- Now the plug-in waits for the application of pended batch changes before the synchronisation starts.
- This may avoid some unexpected loss or unexpected conflicts.
Plug-in sends custom headers correctly when RequestAPI is used.
- No longer causing unexpected chunk creation during `Reset synchronisation on This Device` with bucket sync.
### Refactored
- Synchronisation result application process has been refactored.
- Storage application process has been refactored.
- Please report if you find any unexpected behaviour after this update. A bit of large refactoring.
- We can analyse the local database with the `Analyse database usage` command.
- We can reset the notification threshold and check the remote usage at once with the `Reset notification threshold and check the remote database usage` command.
### Fixed
- Now the plug-in resets the remote size notification threshold after rebuild.
- We can now configure hidden file synchronisation to always overwrite with the latest version (#579).
### Fixed
- Timing dependency issues during initialisation have been mitigated (#714)
### Improved
- Error logs now contain stack-traces for better inspection.
- Now we can switch the database adapter between IndexedDB and IDB without rebuilding (#747).
- No longer checking for the adapter by `Doctor`.
### Changes
- The default adapter is reverted to IDB to avoid memory leaks (#747).
### Fixed (?)
- Reverted QR code library to v1.4.4 (To make sure #752).
#### JWT Authentication
- Now we can use JWT Authentication ES512 correctly (#742).
- Several misdirections in the Setting dialogues have been fixed (i.e., seconds and minutes confusion...).
- The key area in the Setting dialogue has been enlarged and accepts newlines correctly.
- Caching of JWT tokens now works correctly
- Tokens are now cached and reused until they expire.
- They will be kept until 10% of the expiration duration is remaining or 10 seconds, whichever is longer (but at a maximum of 1 minute).
- JWT settings are now correctly displayed on the Setting dialogue.
#### Other fixes
- Receiving non-latest revisions no longer causes unexpected overwrites.
- On receiving revisions that made conflicting changes, we are still able to handle them.
### Improved
- No longer duplicated message notifications are shown when a connection to the remote server fails.
- Instead, a single notification is shown, and it will be kept on the notification area inside the editor until the situation is resolved.
- The notification area is no longer imposing, distracting, and overwhelming.
- With a pale background, but bordered and with icons.
- P2P Replication got more robust and stable.
### Breaking changes
- Send configuration via Peer-to-Peer connection is not compatible with older versions.
### Fixed (This should be backported to 0.25.22 if the beta phase is prolonged)
- No longer larger files will not create a chunks during preparing `Reset Synchronisation on This Device`.
### Behaviour changes
- Setup wizard is now more `goal-oriented`. Brand-new screens are introduced.
- `Fetch everything` and `Rebuild everything` is now `Reset Synchronisation on This Device` and `Overwrite Server Data with This Device's Files`.
- Remote configuration and E2EE settings are now separated to each modal dialogue.
- Peer-to-Peer settings is also separated into its own modal dialogue.
- Setup-URI, and Report for the Issue are now not copied to clipboard automatically. Instead, there are copy dialogue and buttons to copy them explicitly.
- No longer optional features are introduced during the setup or `Reset Synchronisation on This Device`, `Overwrite Server Data with This Device's Files`.
- We cannot preform `Fetch everything` and `Rebuild everything` (Removed, so the old name) without restarting Obsidian now.
### Miscellaneous
- Setup QR Code generation is separated into a src/lib/src/API/processSetting.ts file. Please use it as a subrepository if you want to generate QR codes in your own application.
- Setup-URI is also separated into a src/lib/src/API/processSetting.ts
- Some direct access to web-APIs are now wrapped into the services layer.
### Dependency updates
- Many dependencies are updated. Please see `package.json`.
- As upgrading TypeScript, Fixed many UInt8Array<ArrayBuffer> and Uint8Array type mismatches.
- Fixed a bug that caused wrong event bindings and flag inversion (#727)
- This caused following issues:
- In some cases, settings changes were not applied or saved correctly.
- Automatic synchronisation did not begin correctly.
### Improved
- Too large diffs are not shown in the file comparison view, due to performance reasons.
