Fix Noise session race condition with elegant per-peer actor serialization

- Use Kotlin coroutine actors for per-peer packet processing
- Each peer gets dedicated actor that processes packets sequentially
- Eliminates race conditions in session management without complex locking
- Single surgical change in PacketProcessor - minimal, maintainable
- Leverages Kotlin's native concurrency primitives

# android freezing cdk-ffi lightning memory
## Analysis of Android Invoice Creation Freeze Issue
### Problem Summary
- **Issue**: App freezes entirely when creating Lightning invoices on some Android devices
- **Symptoms**: Mint quote is created and persisted, but UI becomes unresponsive
- **Inconsistency**: Only affects some Android devices, not others
### Key Findings from Code Analysis
#### 1. **Large CDK-FFI Native Library (Most Likely Culprit)**
- `libcdk_ffi.so` is **16.6MB** (ARM64) and **15.8MB** (x86_64)
- This is an extremely large native library that could cause:
- **Memory pressure** on devices with limited RAM
- **Loading delays** that freeze the main thread
- **Device-specific compatibility issues** with different Android versions/manufacturers
#### 2. **Potential Main Thread Blocking Operations**
```kotlin
// In CashuService.createMintQuote - runs on Dispatchers.IO but may still block
val ffiMintQuote = wallet!!.mintQuote(
amount = FfiAmount(amount.toULong()),
description = description ?: "Cashu mint"
)
```
- CDK-FFI calls (`wallet!!.mintQuote()`) could involve:
- **Network operations** to the mint
- **Cryptographic computations**
- **Database writes** to local store
- **Memory allocations** for large data structures
#### 3. **Device Architecture Compatibility**
- CDK-FFI may have compatibility issues with specific:
- **Android versions** (older/newer Android APIs)
- **Manufacturer customizations** (Samsung, Xiaomi, OnePlus, etc.)
- **ARM/x86 architecture variations**
- **Memory management differences** between OEMs
#### 4. **QR Code Generation Timing**
```kotlin
// In ReceiveLightningDialog - QR code generated immediately after quote creation
val qrCodeBitMatrix = remember(text) {
try {
val sizePx = with(density) { 512.dp.toPx() }.toInt() // 512px QR code
val writer = QRCodeWriter()
writer.encode(text, BarcodeFormat.QR_CODE, sizePx, sizePx)
} catch (e: WriterException) { null }
}
```
- Large QR code generation (512px) happens on main thread
- Combined with Lightning request string could be computationally expensive
#### 5. **Memory-Intensive Operations Sequence**
1. CDK-FFI wallet initialization (if needed)
2. Network call to mint for quote creation
3. Cryptographic operations for invoice generation
4. Database write to persist quote
5. UI update to show loading state
6. QR code generation for Lightning invoice
7. UI composition updates
### Recommended Solutions
#### **Immediate Fixes:**
1. **Add Timeout Protection**
```kotlin
// Add timeout to CDK operations
withTimeout(30000) { // 30 second timeout
wallet!!.mintQuote(amount, description)
}
```
2. **Move QR Code Generation Off Main Thread**
```kotlin
// Generate QR code in background
LaunchedEffect(currentMintQuote?.request) {
// Generate QR in background coroutine
}
```
3. **Add Device Memory Checks**
```kotlin
// Check available memory before CDK operations
val runtime = Runtime.getRuntime()
val availableMemory = runtime.maxMemory() - runtime.totalMemory()
if (availableMemory < 50_000_000) { // 50MB threshold
// Show warning or use fallback
}
```
#### **Long-term Solutions:**
1. **Implement CDK Availability Detection**
- Check if CDK-FFI loads successfully on app start
- Fall back to mock/demo mode on incompatible devices
- Show user-friendly error messages
2. **Add Progressive Loading**
- Show spinner immediately when creating invoice
- Update UI incrementally as operations complete
- Provide cancellation option for long operations
3. **Device-Specific Optimizations**
- Detect problematic device models
- Adjust QR code resolution based on device capabilities
- Implement device-specific CDK initialization parameters
