Android ships no curl and the JNI bridge was GET-only, so mod.postLog
failed there with 'no POST transport on this platform' (HostShell.lua).
Add the mirror of httpDownload: GameActivity.httpPost (https-only,
hand-followed redirects re-POSTing the body, one-way), the JNI bridge
with the same old-APK-skew tolerance, the love.system.httpPost binding,
and the HostShell arm that rides it when curl is absent. The body
crosses the JNI as raw bytes (jbyteArray) so a log ring with arbitrary
UTF-8 cannot corrupt through modified-UTF-8 jstring conversion.
Expose a non-blocking TLS socket API to mods (WSS clients) without bundling
any game-specific multiworld content.

Two things, the second of which is the reason the first is safe.
A NEW KIND. pickFile("stadium") opens the document picker for a Nintendo 64
cartridge and lands it as picked_stadium.z64. The caller I wrote it for is
the Dramatic Shape voxel mod, which builds Pokemon Stadium battle models out
of the player's own cartridge -- on desktop it opens a dialog for that, and
on iOS it could only print a sandbox path to a screen and ask the player to
put a file somewhere they cannot reach from a phone.
Its own filename, not picked_rom.gb, because that is the name the Game Boy
importer watches: a 32 MB N64 ROM landing there is deleted and then reported
to the player as a broken cartridge.
WHICH IS ALSO WHAT AN UNKNOWN KIND USED TO DO. The switch's default case
treated anything it did not recognise as a Game Boy ROM, so a caller asking
for a kind the build predates lost the player's file -- the worst available
answer to "I have not heard of that one". Unknown kinds are refused now.
That refusal is invisible on its own: pickFile returns false, which is also
what "the picker would not open" returns, and a mod cannot tell them apart.
So the host says what it knows -- love.system.pickFileKinds() returns
"rom,mod,sav,stadium", or nil where there is no bridge. A caller asks first
and keeps whatever fallback it had; the voxel mod shows its folder note
again, which is what it did before any picker existed.
Tested on an iPhone 17 Pro: a Stadium cartridge imports from the picker and
the models build.
