fix: Svelte 5 runes in .ts files — rename stores to .svelte.ts

Root cause: $state() runes in .ts files were NOT compiled by Svelte.
Svelte 5 only processes .svelte and .svelte.ts files for runes.
content.ts → content.svelte.ts, youtube.ts → youtube.svelte.ts.
Built JS: $state count 2→0. Playwright: body 30→4034 chars. Renders.
