Removed the unconditional FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON set at app launch which prevented the screen from ever timing out. Introduced a KeepScreenOn composable that holds the flag only while media is active — player screen (always), live TV/TV screen (while a channel is playing), and details screen (while the trailer overlay is open). PiP is covered since PlayerScreen stays in composition during PiP. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
