fix(desktop 0.1.6): fast + persistent native notifications + screen picker

- Desktop notifications were slow (~15s), vanished in ~1s, and clicks did nothing:
  * don't block the toast on the avatar download (race a 600ms cap) → shows instantly
  * keep a strong reference to each Notification (Electron GC'd them → premature close
    + dead click)
  * call invites use timeoutType:'never' + a 45s window so they stay until clicked/ended;
    web marks call notifications persistent.
- #9: enable the OS screen/window PICKER (useSystemPicker) so users choose what to share
  (a single window avoids the whole-screen mirror); falls back to primary display.
- desktop 0.1.5 -> 0.1.6.
