Introduce a "generic_mode" option to allow validating/downloading from non-YouTube sites and wire it through the UI, config, and validation logic. Key changes:
- Add generic_mode default to ConfigManager and persist setting from DownloadSettingsDialog (checkbox + help text).
- Extend validate_video_url to accept a generic_mode flag and allow any http/https URL with a domain when enabled; pass this flag from Analysis and Download flows.
- Update YTSageApp to load/save generic_mode, update URL placeholder and settings tooltip behavior, and refresh tooltip when settings change.
- Improve robustness in FormatTableMixin: handle None/incorrect types for format_note, abr, resolution, ext, and codec values to avoid type errors and ensure consistent display.
- Add localization entries for generic mode, placeholder, and related help text across multiple language files and update the in-app default localization strings.
These changes enable broader site support via yt-dlp while hardening UI format handling and keeping user settings persistent.
Add a safe blurred-overlay flow for modal dialogs by implementing run_dialog_with_blur and _apply_blur_to_pixmap on YTSageApp. The new flow captures a window screenshot, generates a blurred/dimmed pixmap via a QGraphicsScene + QGraphicsBlurEffect, shows it in an overlay QLabel with a fade-in, runs the dialog, and then removes the overlay.
Replace many direct dialog.exec() calls with run_dialog_with_blur(...) across the main GUI (download settings, about, history, playlist selection, custom options, cookie login, ffmpeg check, time range, setup success dialogs, etc.). Also add imports required for pixmap/graphics handling.
Make animate_widget_fade_in usage safer by checking for the method before calling it and falling back to setVisible(True) for format table and thumbnails to avoid QPainter/graphics-effect conflicts. Small comment/cleanup in fade-in/out methods.
Make the format table invisible while it's populated and filtered to avoid visual artifacts, then animate its appearance with animate_widget_fade_in after initial filtering. This ensures a smoother UI when the table is first built.
Moved all files from src/gui/ to ytsage/gui/ and updated import statements to use relative imports within the new package structure. This improves modularity and prepares the codebase for distribution as a proper Python package.
