peter 9187ae56b1 fix(share): use the stable YouTube hqdefault thumbnail for OG on YT shares (0.57.1)
Facebook's scraper rejected our self-hosted poster as "Corrupted Image": the poster is an
ffmpeg-produced JPEG (non-standard marker order) that browsers/iOS/Twitter decode fine but FB's
stricter processor won't. For a YouTube source, point og:image at the video's stable, non-expiring
`i.ytimg.com/vi/<id>/hqdefault.jpg` (a Google-encoded JPEG FB decodes reliably) built from the id in
the stored thumbnail — instead of the stored `sqp`-signed variant, which can expire. Non-YouTube
sources keep the poster fallback (fine everywhere but FB). Declares 480×360 so FB includes it on the
first async scrape. og.py only — no schema change.

"""Server-rendered Open Graph tags for the public /watch/{token} page.
The watch page is a client-side SPA, so a social crawler (facebookexternalhit, Twitterbot, …) that
fetches /watch/{token} would otherwise only see the generic index.html — a blank/greyed link card.
This injects per-video OG/Twitter tags into the served HTML so a shared link unfurls with the
video's title, channel and thumbnail. Real browsers ignore the extra tags and hydrate the SPA as
usual. Password-protected / expired / invalid links fall back to the generic card (no metadata leak).
