android: defer taildrop selector until first taildrop attempt

Move Taildrop directory selector out of onboarding
-Listen for Taildrop, and show selector if a directory has not been set

Remove LocalBackend re-initialization
-This is no longer necessary since the directory is set in FileOps

Updates tailscale/corp#29211
