fix(node): make ice_interfaces match adapters on Windows (W9)

`ice_interfaces` compared the operator's entry against ifaddr's
`adapter.name` only -- the kernel name on Linux (`wlp3s0f0`), but the adapter
GUID on Windows (`{846EE342-...}`). A setting written on Linux, or copied
into a Windows node's node.toml, matched no adapter at all.

The failure was silent and total rather than partial: aioice binds one socket
per host address, so an empty list means no sockets, no host candidates, and
an SDP offering only a reflexive address. The settings field is free text
with no picker, and on Windows the operator sees neither the GUID nor the
description -- `ipconfig` shows the connection name -- so an entry now
matches the adapter name, the device description, or one of the adapter's own
IPv4 addresses, case-insensitively. An address is the one identifier visible
on every platform.

A filter that matches nothing now falls back to the unfiltered list with a
warning. Losing the 5 s timeout saving is a regression; being silently
unconnectable is a defect.

Also fixes IPv4/IPv6 discrimination in the same loop: the two were told apart
by falling through to an `elif` that index-probed `ip.ip[0]` and `ip.ip[2]`,
which on an IPv4 str yields characters that compared unequal by luck rather
than by design. Now discriminated by isinstance.

WINDOWS-PORT.md claimed Transport had "no platform dependency"; it does.
