+Decky API v1/v2 `addEventListener` and `removeEventListener` receive real backend
+events while the panel is open. The parent resolves the plugin name from its
+installed store receipt, polls Steam's existing Decky event connection, and sends
+only subscribed events to that panel session. A subscription is established
+before a backend call can emit its response. The bridge allows 32 event names,
+queues at most 64 events and 48 KiB, and drops any event whose arguments exceed
+8 KiB. Polling occurs about once a second, so this is unsuitable for high-rate
+input/audio streams. Closing/reopening a panel removes its subscriptions;
+abandoned CEF subscriptions expire after 15 seconds. This does not deliver
+global notifications while a Framey panel is closed.
