The DWDS websocket mode used by the Flutter `web-server` device provides a limited subset of the service protocol that doesn't include debugging capabilities, expression evaluation support, or object inspection. This change adds detection for applications running in this limited mode and hides screens that rely on unsupported functionality (e.g., debugger).

Ah didn't realize the test was already using this pattern. Fine by me to keep!
Updated comment to clarify web app debugging support.
