Krzysztof kuhy Rudnicki 1fd4478bc2 steam_backlog_enforcer: fix library_hider crash on invalid AppIDs + improve HLTB hour extraction
- library_hider.py: add safeHide(ids) JS helper that binary-bisects on failure
  to skip problematic DLC/tool IDs without blocking the entire hide pass
- library_hider.py: increase CDP timeout 30s -> 120s; extract richer CDP error
  details from exceptionDetails/exception.description
- _hltb_detail.py: rewrite _extract_base_leisure_hours() to pick the maximum
  (slowest) time across all platform comp_high values and *_h fields; add
  _platform_comp_high_candidates() helper
