Fix L17/L18/L56: regex validation, terminal visibility, SponsorBlock warning

L17: TemplateManager urlPattern field now validates the regex on each keystroke;
     an error message appears below the input and Save is blocked until fixed.
L18: Terminal nav item is hidden when customCommandEnabled is false -- no more
     dead-end gated view. Sidebar gains showTerminal prop; App.tsx reads the
     setting and passes it through.
L56: SponsorBlock Categories Field shows a 'warning' validationMessage when the
     toggle is ON but no categories are selected, making the silent no-op visible.

typecheck + 242 tests + eslint + prettier green.
