jelveh 2da282070e Settle requestPermission on the launch paths that could still throw
Three gaps left by the permission-request rework, each verified against a
live stack before and after the fix.

The IPC handler normalises a non-object `options` so it can always reply,
but `typeof null === 'object'` let null through the guard; reading
`.permission` off it threw out of the message listener before any reply,
so `puter.ui.requestPermission(null)` hung forever in env=app while
env=web answered false for the same input.

In the env=web branch only the consent-dialog path was wrapped, even
though its own catch reasons that this resolves to a boolean for every
other caller. A `window.open` refused by throwing rather than by
returning null escaped the launch branch and rejected instead.

The perms docs were flipped to platforms: [websites, apps], but every
entry point except `request()` reads the signed-in user's identity
first, so on a signed-out site they reject with Unauthorized and never
prompt — the permission popup deliberately does not sign the site in.
Document the sign-in precondition on those pages.
