fix(messages): Improve reliability of opening the default SMS app

This commit adds a fallback mechanism to the `openTextMessagesApp` function.

Previously, the function relied solely on a generic `CATEGORY_APP_MESSAGING` intent, which could fail. Now, if the initial attempt fails, it will try to get the default SMS package using `Telephony.Sms.getDefaultSmsPackage(this)` and launch it directly. This increases the chances of successfully opening the user's chosen text messaging application.
