refactor: rename dashboards→webviews, unique applicationId per flavor
build / build (push) Failing after 3m11s

Each flavor gets applicationIdSuffix = ".<name>" so the Bravia
getApplicationList API returns a distinct URI per webview, enabling
Control4 to launch specific flavors independently.

BREAKING CHANGE: applicationId changed from cz.c3c.webviewkiosk to
cz.c3c.webviewkiosk.<flavor> — uninstall old app before reinstalling.
BuildConfig.DASHBOARD_URL renamed to WEBVIEW_URL.

- `signing/release.keystore` is committed on purpose (private repo,
LAN-only kiosk) so every build is upgrade-compatible. Don't reuse the key.
- minSdk 26 is a hard floor — the TV never gets newer Android.
- `LEANBACK_LAUNCHER` category + `android:banner` are what make the app
visible to the Bravia API's `getApplicationList`/`setActiveApp`. Don't
remove either.
- App URI (from `getApplicationList`):
`com.sony.dtv.cz.c3c.webviewkiosk.cz.c3c.webviewkiosk.MainActivity`
- App URIs (from `getApplicationList`) are per-flavor, e.g. weather:
`com.sony.dtv.cz.c3c.webviewkiosk.weather.cz.c3c.webviewkiosk.weather.MainActivity`
- `setActiveApp` alone wakes the TV from standby — no separate
`setPowerStatus` call needed. Control4 driver can skip the wake step.
