fix: include music releases in channel feeds

Browse Source 
Channel feeds previously queried only the Videos tab, excluding artist release tracks visible in general Search. Flatten Releases albums after uploads while retaining raw-row pagination, deduplication, cancellation, and extractor errors.

### Category search
Press `i` in a category or combined-category feed to search only its channels' histories—not just already loaded videos. Enter submits a changed query and returns to normal mode; an unchanged query keeps cached results and pagination. Clear the field and submit to restore the ordinary upload feed. Esc leaves the draft unsubmitted.

Esc leaves the draft unsubmitted. Scoped queries still use YouTube's channel-search endpoint, which can omit music release tracks even when unfiltered browsing includes them.
Each category and combined feed retains its own draft, submitted query, results, and pagination independently of general Search. Subsequent pages use the same scoped query and shared 60-video budget. Empty categories and failed scoped requests never fall back to global search. Search input in other views still opens general YouTube Search.

## Loading and previews
General Search loads up to 60 results per page. Feed and category views, including scoped category searches, share a **60-video total request budget per load**, distributed fairly across active channels—not 60 per channel. Each channel retains its own offset; exhausted channels stop receiving requests, and feeds with more than 60 channels rotate through them across loads. Matching ranges are batched across at most four concurrent yt-dlp processes, with further batches queued. Individual channel views can use the full 60-row budget.
General Search loads up to 60 results per page. Feed and category views, including scoped category searches, share a **60-video total request budget per load**, distributed fairly across active channels—not 60 per channel. Each channel retains its own offset; exhausted channels stop receiving requests, and feeds with more than 60 channels rotate through them across loads. Matching upload/search ranges are batched across at most four concurrent yt-dlp processes, with further batches queued. Release discovery and album extraction use the same four-process limit. Individual channel views can use the full 60-row budget.
Unfiltered channel, Feed, and category browsing traverses each channel's uploads first, then the tracks in its **Releases** albums. Album tracks—not album links—consume the video budget; repeated tracks are deduplicated in the loaded results without refunding their raw-row quota. This includes artist catalogs whose music appears in general Search but not the channel's Videos tab. Channels without a Releases tab keep their uploads normally; other discovery or album failures remain page errors. Later pages re-traverse earlier releases to recover their track offsets, so large artist archives can take longer to load.
In normal mode, forward video navigation authorizes prefetch when 20 loaded rows remain. Each successful page clears that intent, so short, duplicate-only, or unavailable batches do not immediately chain additional loads at startup. Only one page request runs at a time; insert mode and open popups pause automatic prefetch. A feed page is accepted only after every batch succeeds. Switching views cancels running and queued batches; returning resumes the same unaccepted per-channel ranges. Deep channel archives can get slower because yt-dlp offsets traverse earlier pages again.
