[Android] After a failed open, snapshot -i header names the session app while the launcher is in front #4483
Description
Environment: agent-device 0.21.36, macOS (Apple silicon). Android 17 emulator (Google APIs, arm64), Settings app; iOS 27.2 Simulator (iPhone 18 Pro). Found while benchmarking agent-device against an adb/AXe stack: https://codebyramiz.com/blog/mobile-mcp-agent-device/
Steps: The failed open --relaunch com.android.settings from #4482, then snapshot -i.
Actual: The header printed Page: com.android.settings / App: com.android.settings, but the nodes were the Pixel launcher (com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher:id/workspace, Play Store, Gmail...).
Expected: The Page/App header reflects the foreground package, or warns that the session's app is not in front. An agent reading the header assumes it is in Settings.
