4grayandClaude Fable 5.1 ebf34e5dcb fix(live-tv): keep a hidden channel list discoverable and scoped per surface
The second report in #1458 ("all channels disappear after clearing the
playback history, reset does not bring them back") was not data loss: the
history write never touches playlist items. The reporter's screenshot shows
a collapsed channel rail, a state persisted under one localStorage key
shared by the M3U player, the Xtream/Stalker live layouts and the
favorites/recent live tab. It survived restart, "Remove all playlists" and
re-import, and the only way back was a 32px chevron or Ctrl/Cmd+B.

- LiveLayoutSidebarStateService keeps the state per surface (m3u / portal /
  collection) under live-sidebar-state:<surface>; the M3U player now goes
  through the service instead of its own signal. The legacy shared key is
  forgotten on startup and never read, so the update itself restores the
  list for everyone who got stuck.
- The workspace header renders a view_sidebar toggle on every route that
  renders its own rail (M3U all/groups, Xtream live, Stalker itv/radio), so
  the control exists in both states instead of disappearing with the rail.
  Collection pages keep their own toggle beside the content switch.
- While the rail is collapsed and nothing plays, every live host shows
  app-channel-list-hidden-state (title, shortcut hint, full-size "Show
  channels list" button) instead of asking to pick from a list that is not
  on screen. app-portal-empty-state gained optional hint/action inputs.
- New LAYOUT.CHANNELS_LIST_HIDDEN(_HINT) strings in en plus 18 locales.

Tests: service, empty-state, hidden-state and header component specs, a
separate video-player-sidebar spec (the main M3U spec sits at the test
line budget), and an Electron E2E covering history clearing, restore via
button/header/shortcut across restart and re-import, per-surface scoping
against an Xtream portal, and legacy-key cleanup.
