Jonathan Sykes c6b8dfceb8 Add rotating quick-search chips, video_id sanitize, retry button
Rotating chips: 4 sets of 4 chips rotate every 8 seconds on the
hero landing. Sanitize video_id: new sanitizeId() strips path
separators and dangerous chars. Retry button: appears on stream
extraction failure, re-triggers Player.loadVideo.

- frontend/app.js: sanitizeId(), CHIP_SETS + rotateChips(),

# YT Player — Improvement Backlog
The `/loop` works through this top-to-bottom, **one item per iteration**. Tick an item
(`[x]`) only after it builds, verifies, and is committed + pushed. Add new ideas to the
bottom as they come up.
## Build & verify protocol (every iteration)
1. Edit the **canonical source** in WSL (`~/development/personal/ytplayer`).
2. Sync changed files **individually** into `C:\ytbuild\ytplayer` — never
`Copy-Item -Recurse` onto an existing dir (it nests as `frontend\frontend`).
3. `npx tauri build` in `C:\ytbuild\ytplayer`.
4. Launch with `--remote-debugging-port=922x` and verify via CDP/screenshot
(retry the launch a few times — Smart App Control is intermittent).
5. **Only if it builds and verifies:** refresh `releases/`, commit (no AI attribution),
`git push origin main`, then tick the item here.
## UX / polish
- [x] Empty-state designs for empty playlists and empty history (match the new hero).
- [x] Loading skeletons for search results instead of a bare "Searching…".
- [x] Keyboard-shortcut help overlay (press `?`), listing space / arrows / f / m.
- [x] Download/preload progress indicator on cards (percent or a bar, not just a pulse).
- [x] Remember and restore the last playback position per video.
- [x] Toast queue (stack multiple toasts instead of replacing).
## Features
- [x] Drag-to-reorder videos within a playlist.
- [x] "Up next" queue panel showing the autoplay queue.
- [x] Persistent mini now-playing bar when browsing other views.
- [ ] Cache size cap in Settings (auto-evict oldest past a limit).
- [ ] Export / import playlists as JSON.
- [x] More / trending quick-search chips on the hero, rotated.
## Robustness
- [x] Sanitize `video_id` in `cache_download` (reject path separators).
- [ ] Gate the embedded yt-dlp behind a build flag so debug builds compile faster.
- [x] Surface yt-dlp extraction failures with a retry button.
