🚀 New Features

• Added Generic Mode to support downloads from non-YouTube sites supported by yt-dlp #78 thanks to (@WoodyBABL)
• Added a new Download Settings toggle for Generic Mode.
• Added sponsor visibility in the app and docs to make project support easier.

🔧 Improvements

• Added README documentation for using Generic Mode with non-YouTube URLs.
• Reorganized the README usage documentation by splitting the former Advanced Options section into separate sections for media/download, output settings, access/network, and maintenance tools.
• Added localized Generic Mode strings across all shipped language files.
• Updated the URL placeholder text dynamically based on the selected validation mode.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed a crash in the format table when third-party extractors returned null values such as format_note.
• Hardened format table handling for nullable metadata like bitrate, resolution, extension, and codec fields.
• Applied Generic Mode validation consistently to both analysis and download flows.
