Research direction

The report points to MyObjectBox.builder().androidContext(...) and the BoxStore.nativeCreateWithFlatOptions stack trace; start by reviewing the ObjectBox 2.8.1 Android initialization and database file involved there. Reproduce the intermittent -30793 failure while recording the actual device, OS, and storage conditions, then verify the cause and fix.
