chore: sync 2.4.1 onto master

[piotr-iohk]

This PR records the shipped 2.4.1 hotfix on master so the next release does not reuse those changelog entries.

Do not merge release-2.4.1 (#1174). That branch was cut from v2.4.0 and already contains later 2.5.0 work on master.

Description

• Bumps versionCode 187 → 188 and versionName 2.4.0 → 2.4.1
• Inserts the shipped ## [2.4.1] changelog section
• Removes consumed changelog.d/next/ fragments: fix: prevent crash during wallet backup #1092, fix: guard coroutine scopes against crashes #1094, fix: harden ldk node teardown on stop #1100, fix: update DataStore for 16 KB compatibility #1107, fix: integrate ldk crash fixes #1122, feat: increase background stop debounce time #1146, fix: stop auto-accepting stale monitors #1155, fix: fail closed without vss auth #1156, fix: secure shop payments and locked links #1158, fix: gate pubky auth handler #1162, fix: consume vss-client 0.5.23 #1164

Greptile Summary

This PR synchronizes the already-shipped 2.4.1 release metadata onto master so its changelog fragments are not reused.

• Bumps the application from version code 187/version 2.4.0 to 188/2.4.1.
• Adds the 2.4.1 release notes and updates the comparison links.
• Removes the 11 fragments consumed by the release while retaining later unreleased fragments.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge because the release metadata and consumed changelog entries are internally consistent.

The version bump is monotonic, downstream build outputs derive from the same version source, and every deleted changelog fragment is represented exactly once under the correct 2.4.1 category.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
app/build.gradle.kts	Bumps the application version code and name consistently with the documented patch-release sequence and downstream artifact naming.
CHANGELOG.md	Adds the shipped 2.4.1 notes, preserves an empty Unreleased section, and updates version comparison links consistently.

looks good, didn't go too deep though, I trust it should be simple to figure out right 🤞🏻
