Prepares the reviewed Nova staging source for v1.4.14-beta.1.

Android gains the consolidated controller and touch UI, the Stage library, independent text/control sizing, the Director theme, stream tiers and clearer bitrate units, HUD/Command Center improvements, and the Home theme-switching fix. Nova Linux gains the matching UI pass, clearer codec availability and failures, and PyroWave in the standard package instead of a separate bundle. The READMEs, player notes, migration guidance and current screenshots are included. Portrait and control sizing work also addresses #369.

Source: 108b6144eb1f7250f5fad72bb0f8ceda7b7cdc2b, tree 14fce9e2d6d32c75c5a2d927c1f53f17a2490cff. The README and final source hygiene passed private Android, Linux/QML, Release codec-on and Flatpak checks. A subsequent full run exposed an intermittent PipeWire shutdown hang when audio recovery immediately loses its service; this head adds a startup handshake to prevent that race. All 15 focused audio tests and 30 consecutive stereo/5.1/7.1 disconnect cycles passed using the unchanged eight-second player deadline. Original failing evidence is retained. Fresh full private and public checks on this head are pending and remain the merge gates.

Steam Frame support remains experimental native 2D streaming. This does not claim a qualified 1080p90 stream, HDR or immersive SteamVR/OpenXR support. Hardware-dependent test cases remain explicitly unrun where CI lacks their devices; green CI is not physical-device acceptance.

The beta tag, signed release assets, update feeds and matching website update follow the final source and package checks. This PR does not itself publish a beta release.

The public review includes private staging 64c33cc and public release history f2ce2b2. Its tree is byte-identical to the passing author head 0e597c4; fresh public checks on 108b614 and exact staging push CI884 are running.
