fix(control): readable errors, calendar loading and call page fixes

[MrYuion]

Browser testing of the stack found more bugs. Error notifications read Error: [object Object], because driver and API errors are plain objects. The meeting list was always empty: nothing loaded the calendar list. Escape did not close custom tooltips. A failed call layout or presentation change left the select on the rejected value. The Help button covered End Call during a call. The old room's chat socket stayed open on bootstrap. A failed hang-up rethrew into an unhandled rejection.

Changes

• Error text: errorText() uses the error's message, then the realtime msg, then the code or status.
• Calendars: the meeting list loads the calendar list and selects the first calendar. The load is untracked, so the panel and call views do not open the list twice.
• Escape: custom tooltips close on Escape. This is in libs/components, so it applies in every app.
• Call selects: go back to the codec value when a change fails.
• Help button: space is reserved above the call actions only, so the dialpad is not cut off.
• Chat socket: closes when voice control turns off.
• Hang-up: shows the error without rethrowing. Fixed the English and French message.

Testing

• Unit tests: control 250 pass, components 298 pass. Each new test fails on the old code.
• All 17 apps that depend on libs/components build.
• Tested in the running app at 1280x800 and 1024x768: readable errors for each failure type, one meeting list per route, Escape on all topbar tooltips plus map-kiosk, select reset, help spacing (pixel diff without help matches the parent), socket close and reopen.
• E2E (mock): 180 pass, 18 fail. The lighting spec that Escape broke now passes. The remaining 18 (bootstrap host visibility, app routing timing) fail on every branch in this stack and do not reach these changes. They were not run on develop itself.

Known

• The local PlaceOS stack returns HTTP 500 for /api/staff/v1/calendars, so on that backend the meeting list stays empty. Mock mode shows meetings.

Confidence Score: 5/5

[Medium risk] Fixes error handling and UI behavior in the video call interface.

This PR appears safe to merge; no outstanding finding remains.

What we checked:

• Later call choice stays selected: No. Each change gets a request number, and an older failure cannot reset the select after a newer change starts.
• New chat survives an old close: No. The close handler passes its own socket to a check that leaves a newer socket alone.

Summary

Control users now get readable errors, a meeting list that loads its calendars, and call settings that reset when a change fails. The PR also closes tooltips with Escape, ends the voice chat connection when voice control turns off, and makes room for Help during calls.

• Loads calendars when the meeting picker opens and selects a default only when needed.
• Shows readable error details across meeting, routing, and call actions.
• Keeps call settings in sync with the latest successful choice.
• Adds keyboard closing for tooltips and cleans up voice chat connections.
