Replaces the basic inline audio widget with a global mini-player that persists
across feed scrolling and tab navigation. Playback continues with system
notification / lock-screen transport controls via MediaSessionService.
The dock has two states: a collapsed row showing the author's avatar and name
with rewind-15 / play-pause / forward-15; swipe up to expand for a scrub slider,
speed cycling, and close. Single ExoPlayer is owned by AudioPlayerController
and shared with the inline tap-to-play widget, which now reflects global
playback state.
