Unify HLS players with Live/Replay mode toggle

- Single player for both live rendering and completed HLS streams
- "From Start" mode plays from beginning (replay/VOD style)
- "Live Edge" mode follows rendering progress
- Uses dynamic playlist endpoint for both modes
- Removes duplicate VOD player code
