Native calls: get LiveKit 2.15.3 via git-tag pin (stay on CocoaPods) + audio fix

The LiveKitClient CocoaPod on trunk caps at 2.0.18 (2.1+ is SPM-only), so the
2.15 CallKit audio API was unreachable. BUT the repo still ships a valid podspec
at tag 2.15.3, and its deps (LiveKitWebRTC 144.7559.11, LiveKitUniFFI 0.0.6,
SwiftProtobuf) ARE on trunk. So instead of a risky SPM migration:
- ios-patch.sh injects `pod 'LiveKitClient', :git => <repo>, :tag => '2.15.3'`
  into the generated Podfile (after cap sync, before pod install). The NativeCall
  podspec's '~> 2.0' is satisfied by 2.15.3. Idempotent; hard-fails if it can't
  find the App target so we never silently fall back to 2.0.18.
- Plugin re-adds the CallKit<->LiveKit audio-session coordination, now compilable:
  auto-config OFF + engine OFF at load; configure session + enable engine in
  didActivate; disable in didDeactivate; request mic permission on connect.

Core Room APIs (connect/disconnect/setMicrophone) verified compatible between
2.0.18 and 2.15.3 against the real source.
