Implemented a native Android DreamService (PhotoFrameDreamService) that
launches the app's MainActivity when the screen saver is activated.
This allows users to select "Open Photo Frame" as their system screen saver.

Summary of changes:

  • Created android/app/src/main/res/xml/dream_info.xml for service configuration.
  • Implemented PhotoFrameDreamService in Kotlin to handle service startup.
  • Added a dream_label string resource for the screen saver name.
  • Registered the service in AndroidManifest.xml.
  • Downgraded compileSdk and targetSdk from 37 to 36 in build.gradle.kts
    to ensure build compatibility in environments where SDK 37 is not fully available.
