The Play Console flagged the test app with "Direct links don't work" because the ImportActivity VIEW intent filters declared http/https schemes with a wildcard host, which deep link validation cannot verify. These schemes (and BROWSABLE) are unnecessary for side-loading, since apps and browsers hand files over via content:// URIs. Remove them along with the vestigial app scheme, document the rationale in the manifest, and add a side-loading section to the "Opening a publication" guide.

BROWSABLE) are unnecessary for side-loading: apps and browsers hand files over viacontent://URIs, and a shared URL still reaches the HTTP import path through theSEND text/plainfilter. TheVIEWfilters are now restricted to thecontentandfileschemes, the vestigialappscheme is dropped, the rationale is documented in the manifest, and the "Opening a publication" guide gains a short side-loading section pointing at the manifest as the reference pattern.No library code changed — test app and docs only.
