/**
 * Catch-all "not found" route for expo-router.
 *
 * This screen intercepts two different situations:
 *
 * 1. **iOS "Open In…" / share sheet** — iOS delivers files to the app via a
 *    `docuelevate://<path>` URL.  expo-router strips the custom scheme and
 *    tries to match the raw filesystem path (e.g.
 *    `/private/var/mobile/Library/…/file.pdf`) as an in-app route.  Because
 *    no such route exists, expo-router previously threw "unmatched route
 *    docuelevate://…" and the upload never happened.
 *
 *    This screen detects the filesystem-path pattern, adds the file directly
 *    to `ShareContext`, and redirects to the Upload tab.  `UploadScreen`
 *    picks up the pending file and begins uploading automatically.
 *
 *    The `Linking` listener in `_layout.tsx` may also fire for the same URL;
 *    `ShareContext.addPendingFile` deduplicates by URI so the file is only
 *    uploaded once.
 *
 * 2. **Any other unmatched in-app route** — redirect silently to the root so
 *    the user isn't left on a blank error page.
