peter 94fcc40bde feat(downloads): guarantee every download is browser-playable (mp4/H.264/AAC)
The Download module's purpose is download -> share -> play in-browser, so the
output must play in EVERY browser (iOS/Safari/WebKit included). The only
universally-safe combo is mp4 + H.264 + AAC/MP3.

- formats.normalize() now CLAMPS every spec to that profile (container->mp4,
  vcodec->None, audio_format opus->m4a) at the single point all paths flow
  through (picker, stored profile, raw API) — not just by hiding UI options. A
  source exposing no H.264 is still caught by the worker's browser-safe
  re-encode, so playability is guaranteed end-to-end.
- build_ydl_opts drops the now-unreachable non-compat branches (+ _VCODEC_SORT).
- _SIG_VERSION 3->4 so assets cached under an old non-compat spec — or a stale
  non-H.264 mp4 that slipped the v3 net (the HEVC Facebook dls) — re-derive.
- ProfileEditor drops the container/codec pickers and Opus; audio is M4A/MP3.
- i18n: remove the now-unused container/vcodec/any keys (HU+EN parity).

"""Format profiles → yt-dlp options, and the cache signature.
A profile `spec` (stored on DownloadProfile / snapshotted on DownloadJob) is the single source
of truth for what file gets produced. `format_sig` hashes exactly the fields that change the
OUTPUT BYTES, so two users picking equivalent settings share one cached MediaAsset.
`build_ydl_opts` turns a spec into a yt-dlp options dict (format selector + postprocessors).
spec shape (all keys optional; defaults + browser-playability clamp applied by `normalize`):
mode "av" (audio+video) | "v" (video-only) | "a" (audio-only)
max_height int | null (null = best)
container always coerced to "mp4" (the only universally browser-playable container)
audio_format "m4a" | "mp3" (mode "a" extract target; anything else — e.g. opus — → "m4a")
vcodec always coerced to null → H.264 selected (see `normalize`); no opt-out
embed_subs bool embed_chapters bool embed_thumbnail bool sponsorblock bool
`normalize` clamps container/vcodec/audio_format so EVERY download plays in-browser (E7); the
`container`/`vcodec` keys survive only so an old stored profile deserializes without error.
