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)
- No longer the P2P passphrase mismatch causes a server shutdown.
- Settings related to P2P synchronisation are now correctly applied on start-up and no longer reverted.
### New features
- Diagnostic P2P connection stats are now available.
- These stats indicate the number of connection trials, successes, and, failures.
- 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.
- Added active P2P remote selector and creation option in the status pane.
- Introduced immediate replication action for accepted peers.
- Updated status control icons for clarity.
- Display stable Room ID suffix above Peer ID in the status card.
- Implemented dedicated active remote configuration for P2P features.
- Added migration support for P2P active remote selection.
- Improved unit test coverage for P2P settings.
Add prev/next buttons to jump between diff blocks in the
Document History view. Includes position indicator and
auto-scroll with visual focus highlighting.
- 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 deleted files are not clickable in the Global History pane.
- Diff view now uses more specific classes (#803).
- A message of configuration mismatching slightly added for better understanding.
- Now it says `When replication is initiated manually via the command palette or ribbon, a dialogue box will open to address this.` to make it clear that the user can fix the issue by themselves.
### Refactored
- `ModuleRedFlag` has been refactored to `serviceFeatures/redFlag` and also tested.
- `ModuleInitializerFile` has been refactored to `lib/serviceFeatures/offlineScanner` and also tested.
