Subject: [PATCH] fix(host-control-mode): remove redundant CONTENT_EVENT guard,
 persist desync in storage, block stale tab HCM_DESYNC_STATE
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Original code at L1957 already validates sender.tab tabId against
currentTabId before calling processEvent() — added guard was
duplicate. HCM_DESYNC_STATE had no such guard; added with same
sender.tab && currentTabId pattern (popup-safe via undefined
short-circuit).

hcmDesynced now persisted in session storage:
- Restored in ensureState()
- Set on HCM_DESYNC_STATE change
- Reset to false in all 3 teardown storage.sets
Survives SW restarts; cleared on leave/switch/idle-room
