Blackout: stop() ends it on Android, but on iOS it stays on across stop() and the next launch #143
Description
Found while documenting the 7.x beta (docs PR bugsee/docs#110). Checked against the source on main at 7.0.0-beta3; file:line references are to the SDK repo unless a repo is named. Not reproduced on a device unless a line says so.
On Android stop() ends a blackout. On iOS (7.0.0-beta7) only endBlackout() ends it, so a blackout begun before stop() is still on after the next launch(): recordings stay black until the app calls endBlackout().
Suggested direction
Make the platforms consistent (end it on stop() on both, as the cross-SDK spec says: "blackout lasts until endBlackout() or stop()"), and cover it with an e2e on iOS.

The fix belongs to the underlying SDK, not React Native one.

Follow-up from PR #153: add an iOS e2e case in examples/bare/e2e/blackout.test.ts (launch, startBlackout, stop, launch, assert isBlackout false and a BlackoutEnded event). Also decide relaunch() semantics across platforms, and ideally fix stop() in the iOS SDK so the wrapper TODO(#143) can go.
