Features
Discovery refresh API - New backend command to sync frontend with discovered peers, dial unconnected peers for name resolution, and reconnect paired peers
Bug Fixes
Device name caching - Cache device names before mDNS entries are created for consistent discovery
Pairing timeout - 30s timeout for stuck pairing requests; show "Connecting..." during initial name resolution
Pairing failure propagation - Surface unreachable-device errors to the user instead of leaving an infinite spinner
Fresh mDNS addresses - Prefer mDNS-discovered addresses over stale vault addresses when reconnecting
Faster mDNS discovery - Reduced query interval to 30s and TTL to 60s for quicker peer detection
