fix(android): release communication route after dictation (#4069)

Stopping capture abandoned audio focus but left Android's communication mode and selected device owned by Paseo, which could keep Bluetooth audio on its narrow-band call route without an active microphone. Release and reacquire the complete route with the audio session, and prevent idle device callbacks from restoring it.
