Opening a downloaded file from the completion snackbar, the system notification, or the notification swipe-to-dismiss now acknowledges the download, clearing the Downloads row dot without requiring a visit to the Downloads screen. Opening a file routes through a new trampoline activity so the acknowledgement lands regardless of entry point.
Adds a DownloadMenuHighlightPlugin that raises the overflow menu icon dot on every new download and clears it as soon as the browser menu is viewed, independently of the Downloads row dot. The seen state is persisted so it survives process death, and is re-armed by each new download rather than staying suppressed for the rest of the session. Custom tabs are excluded, since they have no Downloads row to explain the dot.
