fix(tv): only defer option-modal selection when it navigates

The close-first + runAfterInteractions change (needed so the in-player audio
switch's replacePlayer isn't swallowed by the modal route) also runs for every
other tv-option-modal caller — detail-page audio, library filters, settings —
whose onSelect only updates state. Deferring those until after dismissal
re-renders the page after focus returns and yanks TV focus, leaving navigation
stuck. Gate the deferral behind deferApplyUntilDismissed (set only by the
in-player audio caller); everyone else applies before closing, as before.
