fix: resolve F-01 to F-08 audit bugs and QoL improvements

- Add per-peer monotonically increasing seq numbers (localSeq + lastSeqBySender)
- Server relays seq for stale command detection (backward compatible)
- Replace expectedEvents (1500ms timeout) with _suppressTimers (per-type, 300ms)
- Fix FORCE_SYNC_ACK missing seq (stale-ACK guard)
- Fix episode lobby readyPeers asymmetry (initiator now included)
- Add extractEpisodeId() parsing S01E01, Season 1 Ep 1, Folge 5, Ep. 3, #42
- Add isDifferentEpisode() guard blocking cross-episode sync commands
- Add sameEpisode() for format-tolerant lobby title matching
- Guard controlled via autoSyncNextEpisode setting
- Reduce reactive lock 1000ms → 300ms
- Fix routeToContent unbounded retry (max 3 attempts)
- Fix server bcrypt.hash failure crashing join flow
- Fix sameEpisode(null, title) returning true
- Fix forceSyncTimeout leak on rapid force sync clicks
- Persist lastSeqBySender across service worker restarts
- Bump version: 1.8.10 → 1.9.0
