* Avoid exception on request add track failure

* Stop audio and video track on publish failure

* Start the video capture on connect if requested

* Fire a room event when the track publication failed

* Add changeset

* Fixes unit tests

* Update livekit-android-sdk/src/main/java/io/livekit/android/room/participant/LocalParticipant.kt

* Also return true from setDeviceEnabled

+
+Improved handling of track publication failures by introducing a new TrackPublicationFailed event and fixing a broken state issue where the track remained active but inaccessible, causing the microphone or camera to stay on without a published track and leading to unreliable republishing.
