thejayman77 ba801d90f6 Make paywalls systemic + fix ArticleCard reactivity
- ArticleCard: derive safeHref from article.url and reset image-failure state
  when the article changes, so in-place replacements re-evaluate correctly
  (clears the Svelte capture warning; build is warning-free again).
- Downweight paywalled stories below readable ones (stable sort) when composing
  the daily five and in feed results — the brief now leads readable and rarely
  hands over a locked door.
- review_sources gains a 'paywall-heavy' advisory flag (Nature, New Scientist
  flag at 100%); never auto-deactivates.
- New Scientist/Nature kept active but no longer reach the daily five; they
  remain browsable with the label + Replace.
- Tests: brief readability preference + paywall-heavy flag (79 total).
