Move the duration (bottom-right) and uploader (bottom-left) onto the
thumbnail as dark-transparent pills instead of text rows below it, for
both .video-card and .favorite-card. Wrap the thumbnail in .video-thumb
to anchor the overlays; uploader stays clickable and truncates with
ellipsis. Favorite cards now show duration too (was stored, never shown).

Layered progressive polish on the warm classic + brass theme:
- Card entrance animation on first mount (virtualizer-aware)
- Cursor-tracking brass spotlight border on cards
- Thumbnail skeleton shimmer until the poster paints
- Hover video preview after a short dwell (only when formats resolved)
- View Transition + blurred-poster ambient backdrop on player open
- Favorite heart pop + expanding ring on add
- ⌘K command palette (search, theme, density, reels, source/channel)
- Scroll-progress bar + back-to-top FAB
- Grid density toggle (comfortable/compact)
- Reels HUD: serif title, brass scrubber, muted-state pulse
All new motion respects prefers-reduced-motion; no JS/HTML structure
changes to the core grid/feed. New glue lives in frontend/js/enhance.js.
