Summary
Fixes native streaming startup so
spotatuiresolves and activates its local Connect device when Spotify reports no active playback, restores paused native sessions without opening the device selector, preserves saved external device preferences, and renders an actionable idle playbar while playback state catches up.Also prioritizes the initial current-playback fetch ahead of playlist loading.
Testing

Manually tested on macOS and Arch Linux. On macOS, playback state restored after playing through native
spotatui, pausing, quitting, and reopening the app. On a fresh start on Arch Linux, the same paused playback state was restored as well, making me believe it covers the cross-device/native-session restore path.P.S.
Still was not able to reproduce the issue #301, this should have been addressed by #293 (also given that the reported issue is reported for older release), but put this one in changelog as 301 :)
