Four owner requests in one pass.

Rename: the PATCH /api/channels/:id route already accepted a name and a
topic, and the API client already exposed it — the only thing missing was a
way to reach it. The channel settings Overview tab now edits both, gated on
MANAGE_CHANNELS like the server is, with Save/Discard appearing only when
the form is dirty. The server's lowercase-and-hyphenate rule moved to
@backspace/shared so the field can show what a name will actually become
instead of letting it change shape on save; one copy of the rule, used by
both sides.

Stream volume: someone else's screen share now starts at 50 instead of 100
(DEFAULT_STREAM_VOLUME). The publisher boosts system audio before sending,
so the old default arrived far too loud for a viewer who never touched the
slider. Only the default moves — the slider still covers the full range and
a value the user set is still persisted.

Sound effects: SFX_BASE_VOLUME 0.8 -> 0.4, halving every cue. The .ogg files
were left alone; they already peak below full scale, so the harshness was
level, not recorded distortion. Every SFX playback path goes through
getSfxVolume(), so this is the single knob.

Translations: channel settings (including the override editor's permission
labels), the friends page end to end — tabs, lists, requests, the add tab
and discovery cards — the invite modal including its per-invite failure
reasons, and the group-DM member actions. Failure reasons are carried as
translation keys rather than finished text, so results already on screen
re-label when the language changes.

Verified: web build (tsc + vite), server typecheck, 490 web tests, 804
server tests.

The originals were all 1.14s — long enough to be intrusive for events that
fire whenever anyone joins, leaves, or watches a stream.

Synthesised rather than sourced: no third-party file, so no licensing question
in a public repository. The parameters are measured, not guessed — envelope,
spectral peaks and decay taken from two reference sounds the instance owner
supplied. The timbre is fundamental plus octave at near-equal strength
(1.00 / 0.85 / 0.10 / 0.02) decaying to 1/e in 0.19s, with no reverb.

Call join rises C4→G4, leave falls D4→G3, matching the references' intervals
and their 100ms spacing. The stream pair reuses those resolution notes as
single tones at ~55% the volume: they fire far more often during a broadcast,
so they have to sit under the call sounds rather than beside them.

Stream start is the one event that happens once per broadcast, so it can be a
chord — with a low thump and a short air layer that both die inside 150ms,
adding weight without length. Stream end mirrors it descending, quieter, and
without the air, since brightness reads as arrival.

Generators and the measured parameters are kept in tools/sfx so these can be
retuned without redoing the analysis. Total size drops from 150KB to 41KB.
