feat: configurable ring settings screen

Adds a Settings screen (SettingsActivity) where the user configures:
- the SMS trigger phrase (replaces hardcoded RING_NOW/PLAY_SONG)
- the sound: system ringtone (with picker) or a picked audio file
- the play duration (5-300s, replaces the fixed 30s)

Values persist via RingConfig (SharedPreferences). SmsReceiver matches the
configured phrase; RingService plays the stored Uri for the configured length.
Removes the old MediaStore by-name song search and its hardcoded duration.
