A previous version of Agora deployed at agora.spot shipped a precaching
service worker that is still controlling returning browsers and serving
them stale HTML/JS — they never see new deploys.
The fix has three parts:
1. public/sw.js — on activate, delete every Cache Storage entry the old
SW left behind. This SW has no fetch handler, so once it takes over
nothing re-populates the cache.
2. src/main.tsx — register /sw.js unconditionally on every web page load.
Previously only usePushNotifications registered it, which meant users
who never visited NotificationSettings stayed pinned to the old SW
forever. Native (Capacitor) skips this — there is no stale SW on the
filesystem origin.
3. .gitlab-ci.yml — the deploy-web rsync was excluding sw.js from the
first pass and never re-adding it to the second pass, so deploys
silently never updated sw.js. Now it ships in the second pass
alongside index.html (after hashed assets land).
