MessageQueue::pop() transfers ownership of the popped message to the
caller, but many handleInputMessages() implementations only deleted
the message when handleMessage() returned true. When a message was not
handled, ownership had already been transferred from the queue and the
message was leaked.
This was identified while investigating an ASAN leak in the audio
subsystem.
Update the applicable handleInputMessages() implementations to always
delete messages after handleMessage() returns. Unhandled messages are
also logged with the component and message identifier so unexpected
message routing is visible during debugging.
This change:
- Ensures every message popped from a queue has its ownership resolved.
- Prevents leaks when handleMessage() returns false.
- Makes unhandled messages visible instead of silently discarding them.
- Preserves the existing message handling logic and does not require
components to handle message types that are legitimately irrelevant
to them.
The changes are intentionally mechanical and limited to the common
message queue ownership and diagnostic pattern.

QMessageBox::information() and friends build the box on the stack, parent
it to the calling widget and run a nested event loop in exec(). If the
parent is closed while the box is open, which the Web API can do at any
time, the parent deletes the box and its children and the heap is
corrupted.
MessageDialog offers the same calls, but the box is heap allocated, given
Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose and shown rather than exec'd, so nothing runs a
nested event loop and the box owns its own lifetime. A box with the same
text as one already up is raised instead of a second being created.
The trade off is that information(), warning() and critical() return
immediately and cannot report which button was pressed. question() takes
a callback for the cases that need the answer.
Converts the call sites in the device, channel and feature GUIs.
