Minor README addition documenting jsDelivr as a known-good escape hatch if we ever hit raw.githubusercontent.com caching issues. No functional change — extension still fetches from raw.github URL.

Discovered while researching CDN best practices for low-volume content hosting; flagged as future-us reference rather than acted on now.

raw.githubusercontent.com works for our volume but serves with
Content-Type: text/plain and has documented occasional caching hiccups
on GitHub's side. jsDelivr is the standard low-cost swap: fixes the
content-type, gives a purpose-built CDN, and supports @branch/@tag/
@commit-sha pinning. Documenting the alternative URL inline so future-
us doesn't need to rediscover it.

No functional change — the canonical fetch URL the extension uses
remains raw.githubusercontent.com for now.
