Enhancement Description
When loading large M3U/Xtream IPTV playlists on startup or account switches, the sidebar categories can occasionally appear empty for a brief moment. Adding a subtle layout skeleton or loading spinner will improve perceived performance.
Expected Behavior
- When the categories network/local database load task is initialized, a smooth animated loading indicator or shimmer effect displays in the list placeholder.
- Disappears automatically the exact moment data populates.
Proposed Solution
- Tie a visibility state flag to the IPTV loading coroutines.
- Implement a lightweight Compose/XML loading element into the side menu list wrapper.
