README: bring features in line with current state

Document the work since the last README pass: full-text library search
(titles/descriptions/transcripts via FTS5), searchable transcript pane +
desktop transcript window, threaded comment viewer, configurable
SponsorBlock, per-channel overrides, post-download format conversion, the
anti-bot/POT stack, auto-retry + adaptive throttle, perceptual
'similar content' dedup, a Reliability section (hang watchdog, disk-full
preflight, error classifier, crash log, backup/restore), folders/notes/
bulk-tagging, desktop UI zoom, and a link to the docs site. Config example
gains sponsorblock_mode / POT / player-clients / ui_scale.

+### Reliability
+
+- **Hang watchdog** — a yt-dlp/ffmpeg job that goes silent for 5 minutes is
+  killed and re-queued, so a stalled process can't wedge the queue.
+- **Disk-full preflight** — refuses to start a download when the target
+  filesystem is nearly full, surfacing a clear error instead of a
+  half-written file.
+- **9-class error classifier** — every failure gets a one-line suggested fix
+  (rate-limited, members-only, geoblocked, bad cookies, codec missing, disk
+  full, …) shown in both UIs.
+- **Crash log** — any thread panic is appended to `yt-offline.crash.log`
+  next to the database, so a GUI launched without a terminal still leaves a
+  trace.
+- **Library backup & restore** — download a snapshot of the SQLite database;
+  restore does a schema-validated, idempotent merge (watched / positions /
+  flags / folders / notes).
+- Poison-recovering locks keep one handler's panic from taking down the
+  long-running web server.
