client: prefer iOS over Android in default order

Browse source 
Android-only path requires Google device attestation (po_token /
botguard signing). iOS path has neither attestation nor sig deobf
requirements, so it's the cleanest "just works" default. Keep
Android in the rotation only when botguard is wired.
