gramps 94f015044a fix(stream): TEST-tab chat — resolve liveChatId from snippet, poll until the broadcast is live
The open creator report ('I still cannot post a chat message in the TEST tab',
feedback 'Chat polling couldn't start — Mock Chat Input is disabled') was a single
cause: the liveChatId never resolved. Two YouTube API facts:
1. The id lives in snippet.liveChatId — contentDetails has no such property
   (TASK 44 read part=contentDetails: could never resolve).
   https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/live/docs/liveBroadcasts
2. It only exists once the broadcast is LIVE — the official sample lists
   broadcastStatus=active, and our fetch ran before the frame pump pushed RTMP
   (enableAutoStart flips ready→live). A ready-state list legitimately returns
   no id.
   https://github.com/youtube/api-samples/blob/master/java/src/main/java/com/google/api/services/samples/youtube/cmdline/live/GetLiveChatId.java

Fix: GetBroadcastLiveChatIdAsync reads part=snippet and polls with a bounded
retry (10x/2s); PrepareAndStartLiveAsync starts the frame pump FIRST, then
resolves the id. Chat stays non-fatal. Docs ai.md/TASKS.md/HANDOFF.md +
MyMistakes recipe updated same commit. TASK 44.

Good Dog: ONE integration test (GetBroadcastLiveChatIdAsync_Polls_Snippet_...
) drives a broadcast that gains its id mid-retry and asserts every request used
part=snippet. Gate: clean build 0 warnings, vstest 318/318.

Monetization policy locked + dev pause recorded (docs changeset, 2026-08-14): the one paid line becomes an annual subscription — early access $49.99/yr → $99/yr list at GA, grandfather-while-subscribed with lapse → list on renewal (no escalation matrix); free tier unchanged (branding flash is the free tier's billboard + no Alerts, which is the one paid feature); billing NOT locked to itch.io (hunted fact: itch.io has no native subscription billing — candidates Gumroad, whose native affiliate program is the tiebreaker, and Lemon Squeezy); support = in-app bug-report → git issues with a when-I-get-around-to-it cadence + emergency patches. ai.md Monetization section rewritten + stale paid-unlock seams fixed (L115 subscription-entitlement wording, the About hub's tabled billing PremiumUrl seam); TASKS.md gains TASK 23 (Monetization — billing provider decision, unlock mechanism with lapse→flash-returns enforcement, in-app bug-report loop, Unlock Premium seam lighting, Alerts gating, and line-item pointers for the early-access strategy, affiliate/ads phase 2, and the channel revival); HANDOFF.md records the decisions + the development pause (resume streaming = pair-programming dev streams via OBS + The Division 2 under the gramps/GOAT persona, 67 and gaming since 1981, 3D-printing content retired; dogfood switch to ytLlive once TASK 5 lands; resume point = TASK 5). Stale itch.io assertions corrected across comments and indexes (MainViewModel.cs PremiumUrl/IsPremium seams, MainWindow.xaml tooltip, AboutHubTests comment, ViewModels/index.md, TASK 9 out-of-scope note). Build 0 warnings, 196 tests passing
