Research direction

Read android/mediaprovider/emby/src/androidMain/.../di/EmbyAndroidModule.kt:56-60 and compare the iOS debug sign-in change in issue #611. Confirm whether the Android debug build should stop seeding the hard-coded server URL and username, then verify that real sign-in still works without the seed.

Description

android/mediaprovider/emby/src/androidMain/.../di/EmbyAndroidModule.kt:56-60 seeds a hard-coded server URL and username in debuggable builds (no password). The iOS equivalent was deleted in #611 (debug sign-in fork). Decide whether to delete it the same way now that sign-in is real on both platforms.
