Drop the startup deferral gate, its kill switch and the deferred loads:
they lowered renderer.ipcCallsToFirstCard but moved neither
spawnToFirstCardMs nor load->card beyond drift, and they grew
renderer.initialBytes. Keep the shared in-flight inventory read, inline
it in PlaylistsService with short property names, and copy the joiner's
result with structuredClone (the Electron renderer has it; the services
test setup polyfills it for jsdom).

Journey J1 / renderer.ipcCallsToFirstCard: 12 -> 7.
- PlaylistsService.getAllPlaylists() shares one in-flight SQLite read
between concurrent callers (the playlist effect and the XMLTV source
reconciliation at startup). Settled reads are never reused and every
SQLite write detaches the pending read.
- getM3uFavoriteChannels() stops re-reading the write-once IndexedDB ->
SQLite migration receipt once it has been seen.
- StartupDeferralService holds the download list, app update status and
the dashboard's recent items and favorites until one task after the
render that reveals the routed content (5 s safety timeout).
IPTVNATOR_DISABLE_STARTUP_DEFERRAL=1 is the kill switch.
- reconcileEpgSources and the two distinct migration-flag reads stay on
the critical path: the first is the #1548 revision fence, the second
are different keys, not duplicates.

The root shell imported WindowControlsComponent and DialogService through the @iptvnator/ui/components barrel, and esbuild keeps every Angular component module a barrel re-exports, so channel lists, EPG views, @angular/forms, date-fns and the whole Stalker data layer sat in main.js. The shell now uses file-level entries, the Stalker connection editor is a lazy proxy, and the release-notes and external-player info dialogs load on demand with a handled failure path.
renderer.initialBytes 2,714,336 -> 1,626,019 bytes (-40%); the baseline is lowered to the ubuntu ratchet measurement and the production/PWA initial budgets drop to 1.8/2 MB. J1: did-finish-load about -16 ms, first card within noise.
