Approval banner has no timeout countdown despite timeout→deny behavior #30

Description

@aasis21

Problem

The README states approvals have a "configurable timeout → deny so a missing phone can't hang the agent", but the banner shows no countdown or remaining time. The user can't tell how long they have before it auto-denies.

Suggested fix

Show a countdown / progress indicator on the approval banner reflecting the timeout, so the deadline is visible.
