fabi 813a9fa500 fix(video): play the actual video, and answer Range requests
Every video in the app was unplayable. Two independent defects, either one
sufficient on its own, and nothing in the suite covered either — no test
anywhere played media or asserted a `<video>` src.

1. The lightbox handed `<video>` a JPEG.

`pickMediaUrl` is mime-agnostic, and compression only ever produces a THUMBNAIL
for a video (one `ffmpeg -vframes 1` frame) — no preview, no display. So in the
DEFAULT saver mode the element's src resolved to `/api/v1/upload/{id}/thumbnail`,
served as `image/jpeg` with `nosniff` so the browser can't even sniff its way
out. Chromium reports DEMUXER_ERROR_COULD_NOT_OPEN.

Fixed in the lightbox rather than in `pickMediaUrl`: FeedListCard shares that
helper and legitimately wants the thumbnail for its `<img>` poster, so a central
mime branch would break the feed. This mirrors the rule the diashow already
applies ("videos play the original file directly"). Added `preload="none"` so
saver-mode guests on cellular still fetch nothing until they press play — there
is no smaller video derivative to offer them — plus `playsinline`, without which
iOS hijacks playback into fullscreen.

2. `stream_media_file` ignored Range entirely.

It took no request headers, so it could not see `Range`; it always returned 200
with the whole body and never sent Accept-Ranges or Content-Range. iOS Safari
opens every `<video>` with a `Range: bytes=0-1` probe and abandons the load
without a 206 — so video failed on the app's primary platform even in `original`
mode, where the src was already correct.

Adds single-range support (`bytes=N-`, `bytes=N-M`, `bytes=-S`) with 206 +
Content-Range, 416 + `bytes */len` past EOF, and Accept-Ranges advertised on
every response. Anything it won't handle — multi-range, non-bytes units, garbage
— falls back to a full 200, which RFC 9110 explicitly permits and which is safer
than guessing. All four media routes share the helper, so seeking works
uniformly.

`get_original` now serves `inline` instead of `attachment`. An attachment
disposition is hostile to a `<video>` element, and this route is the only source
of playable video bytes; it also matches what the UI promises, since the action
is labelled "Original anzeigen" — view, not download. `no-store` is deliberately
kept so a takedown still revokes access promptly; ranges work fine under it, the
client just re-fetches.

Tests: 11 unit tests pin the parser (the iOS `bytes=0-1` probe, inclusive ends,
suffix ranges, clamping past EOF, 416 vs 200, malformed fallbacks). A new
03-feed/video-playback spec asserts the src is the original and not the
thumbnail, that the browser accepts the bytes as media (readyState > 0, no
MediaError), that no video bytes are delivered before play, and that Range
returns the correct 206 slices and a 416 past EOF — verified on both Chromium
and WebKit.

The "not downloaded before play" test asserts no *delivered body* rather than no
request: WebKit opens a connection for a preload="none" video and immediately
aborts it (GET, no Range, status 0, nothing transferred) while Chromium issues
nothing at all. The portable guarantee is that no response carrying bytes
completes.

lib/ conventions

Short rules. The patterns we already follow as of v0.16 — write new code that fits.

One store per cross-cutting concern. A single *-store.ts file owns each one:

  • auth.ts — JWT / PIN in localStorage, isAuthenticated writable
  • ui-store.ts — bottom-nav visibility, upload-sheet open state, FAB badge count
  • data-mode-store.ts — Saver vs Original media-loading preference
  • privacy-note-store.ts — admin-configured Datenschutzhinweis text
  • quota-store.ts — live per-user storage snapshot
  • upload-queue.ts — IndexedDB-persisted upload queue + processing state

Don't import these into other stores unless strictly necessary; let pages compose them.

DTOs mirror Rust types. All TS interfaces live in types.ts. Each one carries a // mirrors backend/src/path::TypeName comment so the two stay searchable. If you add a Rust DTO, add the TS twin in the same PR.

Gestures via Svelte actions in actions/. Long-press, double-tap, future swipe — each is a use: action that fires a CustomEvent. Components stay free of gesture plumbing.

Reusable bottom sheets via ContextSheet.svelte. Pass an actions: ContextAction[] array. Any page that needs a long-press / kebab context menu uses the same primitive.

SSE relays are listed in sse.ts::KNOWN_EVENTS. New server event → add one entry to that array, that's it.

Diashow transitions live in diashow/transitions/. Each is a Svelte component plus one entry in transitions/index.ts. Adding a new animation is two-line work; no diashow code needs to change.

No new global stores beyond the list above unless the new concept is genuinely app-wide. Page state belongs in the page.
