UE5 clients cannot call Server RPCs on actors they don't own. NPC actors
are server-owned, causing "No owning connection" errors when remote clients
try to start conversations, send mic audio, or interrupt agents.
Solution: relay all client→NPC RPCs through the InteractionComponent on
the player's pawn (which IS owned by the client). The relay forwards
commands to the NPC's ElevenLabsComponent on the server side.
Changes:
- InteractionComponent: add Server relay RPCs (Start/End conversation,
mic audio, text message, interrupt) and Client relay RPCs
(ConversationStarted/Failed) with GetLifetimeReplicatedProps
- ElevenLabsComponent: implement FindLocalRelayComponent(), route all
client-side calls through relay (StartConversation, EndConversation,
SendTextMessage, InterruptAgent, FeedExternalAudio, mic capture)
- Fix HandleConnected/ServerRequestConversation to route Client RPCs
through the player pawn's relay instead of the NPC (no owning connection)
- Fix StartListening/FeedExternalAudio/StopListening to accept
bNetIsConversing on clients (WebSocket only exists on server)
- Fix EvaluateBestAgent to use NetConversatingPawn instead of
NetConversatingPlayer (NULL on remote clients due to bOnlyRelevantToOwner)
