Subject: [PATCH] fix: remove experimental useSystemPicker causing
 double-picker and no audio on macOS

useSystemPicker triggers applyConstraints to re-open the system picker
(Electron #44684) and doesn't reliably pass audio capture. All platforms
now use the custom Aether Drift picker with explicit loopback control.
