fix(pr-validation): paginate issue comments + guard unreadable body file

Addresses review: github.rest.issues.listComments only returns the first page,
so the sticky-comment marker could be missed on busy PRs — use github.paginate.
And guard readFileSync so a missing/unreadable body file exits 2 (per the doc)
instead of crashing without JSON.

-**CRITICAL: Code must be production-ready, reliable, and maintainable**
-
-### Type Safety
 - Use TypeScript for ALL files (no .js files)
-- **NEVER use `any` type** - use proper types, generics, or `unknown` with type guards
-- Use `@ts-expect-error` with detailed comments only when necessary (e.g., library limitations)
-- When facing type issues, create proper type definitions and helper functions instead of using `any`
-- Use type assertions (`as`) only as a last resort with clear documentation explaining why
-- For Expo Router navigation: prefer string URLs with `URLSearchParams` over object syntax to avoid type conflicts
-- Enable and respect strict TypeScript compiler options
-- Define explicit return types for functions
-- Use discriminated unions for complex state
-
-### Code Reliability
-- Implement comprehensive error handling with try-catch blocks
-- Validate all external inputs (API responses, user input, query params)
-- Handle edge cases explicitly (empty arrays, null, undefined)
-- Use optional chaining (`?.`) and nullish coalescing (`??`) appropriately
-- Add runtime checks for critical operations
-- Implement proper loading and error states in components
-
-### Best Practices
 - Use descriptive English names for variables, functions, and components
 - Prefer functional React components with hooks
 - Use Jotai atoms for global state management

-## Internationalization (i18n)
-
-- **Primary workflow**: Always edit `translations/en.json` for new translation keys or updates
-- **Translation files** (ar.json, ca.json, cs.json, de.json, etc.):
-  - **NEVER add or remove keys** - Crowdin manages the key structure
-  - **Editing translation values is safe** - Bidirectional sync handles merges
-  - Prefer letting Crowdin translators update values, but direct edits work if needed
-- **Crowdin workflow**:
-  - New keys added to `en.json` sync to Crowdin automatically
-  - Approved translations sync back to language files via GitHub integration
-  - The source of truth is `en.json` for structure, Crowdin for translations
-
 ## Special Instructions
 
 - Prioritize cross-platform compatibility (mobile + TV)

-# Chromecast Cast Test Matrix
-
-Manual verification for the device-profile work. Run each row by casting the
-matching media from the app to a physical Chromecast and recording the result.
-
-**Test device:** ___________________  (model name as reported by the app)
-**App build / commit:** ___________________
-**Date:** ___________________
-
-## How to run
-
-1. Pick a library item matching the row's codec / audio / container.
-2. Cast it. Note whether it direct-plays or transcodes (server logs show
-   `Video is being transcoded` vs `Video is being direct played`).
-3. Record the load result: OK / 2100 / infinite-loading / other.

- *   (a) playback entering the Outro segment (when `skipOutro !== "auto"`), or
- *   (b) `IDLE + FINISHED` (hard end of media),
- * starts a cancellable countdown via `castAutoplayAtom` and ultimately loads
- * the next episode on the cast.
- *
- * The countdown atom is driven here; the casting-player overlay reads it.
- * Cancellation (overlay's Cancel button) sets the atom to `null` externally;
- * the watcher reacts by clearing its interval and refusing to retrigger for
