Bootstrap Kotlin 2.3 migration and move SplashActivity to Compose (Material 3) with EventBus-free flow

[Copilot]

This PR starts the modernization track toward a Kotlin-first, Compose-first app architecture by upgrading toolchain versions and migrating the splash entry flow off legacy XML/EventBus patterns. It also reduces null-unsafe patterns in the touched path.

• Toolchain baseline

  • Updated version catalog to Kotlin 2.3.0.
  • Aligned Android build tooling versions in libs.versions.toml for a single source of truth.

• Compose + Material 3 migration (entry screen)

  • Replaced SplashActivity view inflation/binding with a Compose-rendered UI (ComposeView + MaterialTheme).
  • Introduced a composable splash surface with logo, loading indicator, and retry action.

• EventBus decoupling in splash flow

  • Removed eventBus.register/unregister and @Subscribe handling from SplashActivity.
  • Switched to local readiness polling for info bootstrap completion and navigation handoff.

• Null-safety improvements in touched code

  • Eliminated !! usage from SplashActivity.
  • Added explicit state persistence keys for splash UI state (isLoading, showRetryButton) and extracted poll interval constant.

composeView.setContent {
    MaterialTheme {
        SplashScreen(
            isLoading = isLoading,
            showRetryButton = showRetryButton,
            onRetry = { initView() }
        )
    }
}

@copilot Start updating to Jetpack Compose and support Material 3 design alone the way, EventBus removal, and safer null handling. Try until all tasks are implemented.

Implemented an incremental migration slice in 97ae350: SplashActivity is now Jetpack Compose + Material 3, EventBus usage is removed from this flow, and unsafe !! usage is removed in the touched file. This is pushed and ready for review.
