Research direction

Reproduce the deletion flow on Android 11 with Amaze File Manager 3.11.1: open SDCARD, select a folder, and use the option menu's delete action. Trace the delete entry point and verify that a successful operation removes the folder, while failures show an explanatory toast rather than "Done".
