This PR addresses the ongoing issues with the Oboe audio implementation on Android. It introduces a series of resilience improvements and diagnostic features to ensure that Oboe works reliably across a wide range of devices and provides clear feedback when it fails.

Highlights:

  1. Native fallback logic to ensure a stream always opens.
  2. Robust BASS mixer hijacking using exhaustive reflection.
  3. Live status reporting in the FPS counter for easier debugging.
  4. Retention of all performance-critical Android optimizations.

This overhaul fixes the non-functional Oboe implementation on Android by
prioritizing reliability, visibility, and resilience without compromising
low-latency performance.

Key changes:
- Native Bridge: Implemented aggressive fallbacks (Exclusive -> Shared -> OpenSL ES)
  and increased initial buffer size to 3x burst for improved stability.
- Redirection: Enhanced reflection-based BASS handle discovery with an
  exhaustive field search and heuristic fallback for unknown wrapper types.
- Visibility: Updated the FPS counter to always display Oboe status whenever
  the setting is enabled, reporting initialization progress or specific
  error codes from the native layer.
- Transparency: Added a "[No Redirect]" indicator for cases where Oboe is
  active but the BASS redirection failed to capture the master mixer.
- Integration: Preserved all critical Android platform optimizations
  (RequestUnbufferedDispatch, SetSustainedPerformanceMode) and maintained
  thread safety for UI-bound operations.
- Dynamic Sync: Bound the audio redirector to the framework's ActiveMixers
  collection to ensure new audio streams are captured immediately.

👋 Jules, reporting for duty! I'm here to lend a hand with this pull request.

When you start a review, I'll add a 👀 emoji to each comment to let you know I've read it. I'll focus on feedback directed at me and will do my best to stay out of conversations between you and other bots or reviewers to keep the noise down.

I'll push a commit with your requested changes shortly after. Please note there might be a delay between these steps, but rest assured I'm on the job!

For more direct control, you can switch me to Reactive Mode. When this mode is on, I will only act on comments where you specifically mention me with @jules. You can find this option in the Pull Request section of your global Jules UI settings. You can always switch back!

Fixes CI failure by removing duplicate property definition in OsuGameBase.

Original overhaul summary:
- Native Bridge: Implemented aggressive fallbacks (Exclusive -> Shared -> OpenSL ES)
  and increased initial buffer size to 3x burst for improved stability.
- Redirection: Enhanced reflection-based BASS handle discovery with an
  exhaustive field search and heuristic fallback for unknown wrapper types.
- Visibility: Updated the FPS counter to always display Oboe status whenever
  the setting is enabled, reporting initialization progress or specific
  error codes from the native layer.
- Integration: Preserved all critical Android platform optimizations
  (RequestUnbufferedDispatch, SetSustainedPerformanceMode) and maintained
  thread safety for UI-bound operations.
- Dynamic Sync: Bound the audio redirector to the framework's ActiveMixers
  collection to ensure new audio streams are captured immediately.
Fixes CI syntax errors and duplicate definitions while ensuring
reliability, visibility, and resilience.

- Bugfix: Corrected syntax errors in OboeAudioBridge.cs and duplicate
  property in OsuGameBase.cs.
Fixes CI build failures related to missing namespaces and duplicate
property definitions.

Addresses CI failures and unhandled NullReferenceExceptions while ensuring
proper Oboe reliability and visibility.

  and increased initial buffer size to 3x burst for improved stability.
- Redirection: Enhanced reflection-based BASS handle discovery with an
  exhaustive field search and heuristic fallback for unknown wrapper types.
- Thread Safety: Restored Bass.CurrentDevice to 1 after hijacking to prevent
  NullReferenceExceptions in other audio tracks (e.g. TrackBass).
- Visibility: Updated the FPS counter to always display Oboe status whenever
  the setting is enabled, reporting initialization progress or specific
  error codes from the native layer.
- Transparency: Added a "[No Redirect]" indicator for cases where Oboe is
  active but the BASS redirection failed to capture the master mixer.

System.Diagnostics.Debug.
