beIN Sports 1 variants stayed separated after projection because
names with region prefixes (C Car, C Reu, Thai), time-shift suffixes
(2h/4h/8h/12h) and language markers (En, Fr, Thai) produced distinct
fingerprints. Extend normalization in the server projection service
and the frontend grouping fallback to fold these into one logical
channel, with tests on the exact reported names. Clarify the Laya
language detection warning so a language-matching failure is not
mistaken for a grouping failure, and bump script versions for cache
refresh.

Move variant grouping work out of Live TV rendering into the
catalog pipeline: a liveProjectionService builds the logical channel
projection (schema in liveProjectionSchema) whenever a source is
added, synced or modified (name change, new address), and the
projection is served through a /live route. ChannelList now consumes
the precomputed projection via a liveChannelProjection client
service, recalculating only when the catalog changes. Cover
projection building, incremental recompute and client consumption
with tests.

Two fixes: the ChannelList local-AI warning kept showing after the
runtime became available because status changes were not re-evaluated
on refresh; and selecting a language in the player did not switch the
stream variant immediately. Refresh warning visibility from the
latest laya status and apply the chosen variant/language on
selection, with tests for both behaviors.

Add a languageDetectionMode setting (algo | laya | laya+algo) exposed
in Settings with three engine choices. When Laya is enabled, a laya
service (Dockerfile.laya, optional compose profile, models stored
outside the repo under ./data/models/laya) can be started, with model
download and deletion from the UI via /laya routes to manage disk
space. Add a channelLanguageFusion service combining Laya results
with the existing algorithm, and wire detection mode through
grouping, channel list and player. Cover engine selection, fusion
and laya service behavior with tests.

Add a liveChannelListMode setting (default 'grouped') with a Settings
toggle to display the Live TV channel list flat, without category
group sections. When enabled, logical channels are listed directly
with their stream variants still grouped as in #9/#10. Cover the
setting default and flat-list behavior with tests.

Add a channelVariantGrouping service that normalizes channel names
(strips region prefixes and quality tokens) to fingerprint duplicate
stream entries and cluster them under a single logical channel with
quality/source variants. Wire it into the Live TV channel list and
player variant selection, reducing duplicates without destructively
merging streams.
