The ongoing countdown now appears whenever a car is parked, paid or free,
and sticks around the way ntfy's does on GrapheneOS.
Why it wasn't showing at all on a paid park: StartSessionScreen carried its
own stricter copy of parseApiTime that demanded MM-DD-YYYY + AM/PM. The
dual-format fix from deb78bf only landed in sessionStatus.ts, so when the
API returned the other format the parser returned null and the notification
was simply never posted. There is now one parser (api/parseTime.ts), and the
failure logs instead of going silent.
Persistence: a plain notify() was never enough — Android 14+ lets the user
swipe an ongoing notification away, and nothing brought it back after a
reboot. BbpSessionService is a real foreground service (type specialUse) that
owns the notification, plus a BOOT_COMPLETED receiver to restore it; specialUse
is one of the types Android 14/15 still allow to start from BOOT_COMPLETED.
The service's life is exactly the session's life: it stops itself, removing
the notification, on End, at expiry, or when there's no session to show.
Buttons: paid sessions previously got no actions at all (only free check-ins
did). Both now get End and Extend/Pay. End stops tracking — honest about the
fact that ParkSmarter has no stop-session endpoint, so bought time keeps
running at the meter. Extend opens the purchase screen for that exact zone.
The active session (with its Zone) is persisted locally, so the countdown and
Extend survive reboot, offline, and Anonymous Mode instead of depending on a
round-trip. sessionStatus.ts + features/checkin collapse into one owner,
features/session/activeParking — one record, one notification.
Verified: :bbp-notify:compileDebugKotlin passes, and the merged app manifest
carries the service (specialUse + FGS subtype property), both receivers, and
the FOREGROUND_SERVICE/SPECIAL_USE/RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED permissions.

For a zone labeled free_2h/3h/4h, "Check in (free · Xh)" starts a local, API-free
countdown to the free limit — no ParkSmarter call. The bbp-notify module gains a
showCheckin() that posts the ticking chronometer with "End" / "Pay" buttons, a
BbpActionReceiver (declared in the module's new AndroidManifest.xml) that records
the tap in SharedPreferences and, for Pay, relaunches the app; consumePendingAction()
is drained on foreground by useCheckinSync() — End clears the check-in, Pay hands
off to StartSession for the stored zone. A pre-expiry alert reuses the existing
reminder lead-minutes. Starting a paid session supersedes an active check-in.
Also: MeterDetail shows the free/pay-immediate label and (admins) labeling chips.

Starting a session posts an ongoing notification showing the expiry time + time
remaining, so you can glance at how long you have left without opening the app.
- Default ON; toggle in Account -> Notifications ("Active-session countdown").
- Kept fresh on app open / foreground (re-posts nearest-expiring active session,
clears when none remain). Quiet channel, no banner/sound on refresh.
- Purely local (expo-notifications); no server/push.
Note: expo-notifications can't render a live per-second ticking countdown in the
background, so it shows the exact expiry time (always accurate) + remaining, and
refreshes on foreground. A true ticking chronometer would need notifee (native).

- fileLogger: append redacted API requests/responses + app events to an on-device
log file (persists across restarts); the client's logSink now writes to it
- Diagnostics screen (Account > Diagnostics): toggle recording, Share log file
(expo-sharing), clear. StartSession logs the session attempt/result explicitly.
- Lets a real parking session be captured while away from a computer, then shared.

- New Notifications screen (Account > Notifications): enable/disable expiry
reminders + a 5-minute-increment stepper (5–60 min), default 15 min
- localReminders.scheduleExpiryReminder now reads the persisted lead time + enabled
flag, so it's ready to fire once the start-session flow is wired
