Send the SDK name and version as X-Stream-Client on SFU requests

[aleksandar-apostolov]

Goal

Closes AND-1509

The SFU's Twirp calls carried no SDK identity — only the coordinator API sent
X-Stream-Client. Same change as the JS SDK's GetStream/stream-video-js#2425.

Implementation

• SfuHeadersInterceptor adds X-Stream-Client: stream-video-android-v<sdk-version>, built by
  HeadersUtil.buildSfuSdkTrackingHeader().
• SendStatsRequest.sdk is unchanged and keeps reporting stream-android.
• Registered on http.newBuilder() for the signaling Retrofit client, not on the shared SFU
  OkHttpClient: the SFU socket is built on that same client and SocketFactory already sets
  its own X-Stream-Client, so registering there would put two values on the upgrade request.
• The -v matches the other SDKs' coordinator token (stream-video-swift-v…,
  stream-video-react-v…) rather than our own coordinator prefix, which has no v. So the same
  app sends stream-video-android-1.30.0 to the coordinator and stream-video-android-v1.30.0
  to the SFU. Deliberate — cross-SDK consistency was chosen over @ in the format thread.

🎨 UI Changes

None.

Testing

• SfuHeadersInterceptorTest pins the header value and that exactly one is sent. Red-proved by
  dropping the v, which is the near-miss value given our coordinator prefix doesn't carry one.
• ./gradlew :stream-video-android-core:testDebugUnitTest :stream-video-android-core:spotlessCheck :stream-video-android-core:apiCheck
• Not yet observed on the wire against a live SFU.

Walkthrough

The SDK now adds an X-Stream-Client header to SFU signaling requests. A dedicated signaling HTTP client applies the header interceptor, while the socket client remains unchanged. Tests verify the header value and uniqueness.

Changes

SFU signaling tracking

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Header construction and interception stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/header/HeadersUtil.kt, stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/internal/module/SfuHeadersInterceptor.kt	HeadersUtil builds the stream-video-android@<version> value. SfuHeadersInterceptor adds it to each outgoing request.
Signaling client wiring and validation stream-video-android-core/src/main/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/internal/module/SfuConnectionModule.kt, stream-video-android-core/src/test/kotlin/io/getstream/video/android/core/internal/module/SfuHeadersInterceptorTest.kt	signalRetrofitClient uses a dedicated HTTP client with the interceptor. Tests verify the header value and ensure that one header is sent.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2af56

SFU signaling requests now include a versioned X-Stream-Client header without changing socket requests. The remaining risk is limited to the new unit test not using the repository-standard fast test setup.
