Fix stray promo headers, site-URL subscribing, and YouTube playback

Three reported bugs.

**"West Hawaii today articles get a bunch of stray Trending headers."**
The publisher's widget platform injects promo blocks between the real
paragraphs, inside the article's own container, so every structural
signal tells Readability they belong. What survives is a heading
labelling nothing, because the links under it are filled in by a script
that never runs in the reader. Confirmed on 9 of the 12 articles in
that feed, two each. Blocks marked `data-mrf-recirculation` are now
removed -- the attribute says what the block is for in the widget
platform's own words, which is a better signal than the word
"Trending", since an article may legitimately discuss what is trending.
Nothing longer than a label and a few headlines is ever removed. Also
applied to already-cached articles, in place rather than by discarding
them: the article was fine, only the litter has to go.

**"Can't subscribe to heathercoxrichardson.substack.com."** Adding a
feed handed whatever URL it was given straight to the XML parser, so a
site's home page -- the only URL a reader can actually see and copy --
failed on the root element. That page advertises its feed the way sites
have since 2002, in a <link rel="alternate"> in the head. It is now
read, resolved against the page, and fetched. Only what the page
declares: guessing /feed and /rss would add a burst of 404s to every
failed add and eventually subscribe somebody to the wrong thing.

**"YouTube play is misconfigured."** It was, and YouTube said so: the
player dialog loaded the embed as its own top-level document, which
answers with "Video player configuration error -- Error 153". An embed
has to be embedded. It now sits in an iframe on a minimal host page.
Measured in the app's own WebView: top-level, no requests for the video
stream and the error on screen; framed, the stream loads and there is
no error.

**"Long click on YouTube placeholder should open the URL directly."**
It does now. Worth recording why this is not simply the link's href:
for an image inside a link, WebView's hit test reports the image's URL,
so a long-press on the thumbnail arrives as the i.ytimg.com JPEG. The
video id is resolved out of that.

Verified on a device for all four: the Substack site URL adds "Letters
from an American" and fetches 20 articles; a West Hawaii Today article
extracts with no Trending headers and its body intact; the video plays;
and a long-press reaches the YouTube app.

+ * Removes "recirculation" widgets -- the promo blocks a publisher's widget platform injects
+ * into the middle of the article body to send the reader off to other stories.
+ *
+ * Reported live: West Hawaii Today articles "get a bunch of stray 'Trending' headers".
+ * Confirmed by running the vendored Readability.js over the rendered page for the 12 articles
+ * in that feed: 9 carried two surviving widgets each. The three that didn't were paywalled
+ * stubs too short for the widgets to be reached.
+ *
+ * Readability keeps them because they are not in a sidebar -- they are inside the article's own
+ * container, between real paragraphs, so every structural signal says they belong. What arrives
+ * is a heading labelling nothing, because the list of links under it is filled in later by a
+ * script that never runs in the reader:
+ *
+ * ```
+ * <div data-mrf-recirculation="IL_..." data-testid="text-html"><p><h3><span>Trending</span></h3></p></div>
+ * ```
+ *
+ * The signal is the attribute, not the word "Trending": `data-mrf-recirculation` says what the
+ * block is for, in the widget platform's own vocabulary, and no article body is ever inside one.
+ * Matching on the heading text instead would be both narrower (the label varies by site and
+ * section) and more dangerous (an article may legitimately discuss what is trending).
+ *
+ * [MAX_WIDGET_TEXT_LENGTH] is the same safety valve [ConsentNotice] uses: however the attribute
+ * is applied, nothing with real writing in it is ever thrown away.
