devsyncwrld 3deed92dd9 feat(sounds): replace call and stream effects ...

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.
