Research direction

Start by reproducing termux-notification --type media on Android 14 using termux-api application 0.52.0 and package 0.59.1, then trace the notification handling entry point. Compare the behavior with the reported Android 9 behavior and determine whether media controls are still supported. Done means the Android 14 behavior is fixed or the limitation is clearly documented.
