Bring 323 commits of develop (incl. the Expo SDK 56 / TV-branch work) into
the chromecast refactor. Conflict resolutions:
- chapters: take develop's reviewed version (ChapterList/ChapterTicks/
chapters.ts/test) — adds chapterNameAt, markers API, themed Colors.
- auto-skip: keep chromecast's unified useSegmentSkipper for the phone
player; restore develop's useCreditSkipper/useIntroSkipper (deleted on
chromecast) so develop's Controls.tv.tsx compiles. TV->useSegmentSkipper
migration left as follow-up.
- en.json: union the two player blocks (kept chromecast casting keys +
develop's subtitle/playback keys).
- TechnicalInfoOverlay/PlatformDropdown: take develop's TV-safe versions
(kept chromecast's disabled-prop branch, aliased to avoid shadowing the
@expo/ui disabled modifier).
- SDK 56 fixes: expo-router Router -> ImperativeRouter in cast components;
ChapterTicks markers API in CastPlayerProgressBar.
- restore utils/profiles/chromecast* (deleted on chromecast, still used by
PlayButton).
Typecheck passes; bun.lock regenerated against merged package.json.

"GPU-next"
Removed some console logs from previous debugging
Added the ability to see what VO is being used to render in the video

Enriches the casting player screen by fetching item details from the Jellyfin API for a more reliable and complete user experience.
The casting player now prioritizes item data fetched directly from the API, providing richer metadata and ensuring accurate information display.
- Fetches full item data based on content ID.
- Uses fetched data as the primary source of item information, falling back to customData or minimal info if unavailable.
- Improves UI by showing connection quality and bitrate.
- Enhances episode list display and scrolling.
- Adds a stop casting button.
- Minor UI adjustments for better readability and aesthetics.
This change enhances the accuracy and reliability of displayed information, improving the overall user experience of the casting player.
- Implemented a retry mechanism for Chromecast device discovery with a maximum of 3 attempts.
- Added logging for discovered devices to aid in debugging.
- Updated Chromecast button interactions to streamline navigation to the casting player.
- Changed the color scheme for Chromecast components to a consistent purple theme.
- Modified the ChromecastDeviceSheet to sync volume slider with prop changes.
- Improved the ChromecastSettingsMenu to conditionally render audio and subtitle tracks based on availability.
- Updated translations for the casting player to include new strings for better user experience.
Relocates player-specific translation keys from the "player" namespace to the "common" namespace to improve reusability across different components.
All player-related strings (error messages, playback controls, download prompts) are now accessible as common translations, enabling their use throughout the application without namespace-specific imports.
- Add SegmentSkipMode type ('none', 'ask', 'auto') in settings.ts
- Create 5 segment skip settings: skipIntro, skipOutro, skipRecap, skipCommercial, skipPreview
- Update segments.ts to fetch all 5 segment types from Jellyfin MediaSegments API (10.11+)
- Create unified useSegmentSkipper hook supporting all segment types with 3 modes
- Update video player Controls.tsx with priority system (Commercial > Recap > Intro > Preview > Outro)
- Add dynamic skip button text in BottomControls.tsx
- Create dedicated settings submenu at settings/segment-skip/page.tsx

- Extend DownloadedItem interface with all segment types for offline support

- Subtitle Scale (0.5x to 2.0x)
- Vertical Margin (-100 to +100)
- Horizontal Alignment (left, center, right)
- Vertical Alignment (top, center, bottom)
All settings use mpvSubtitle* settings for direct MPV control.
Includes English translations for all new settings.
