Previously the engine was blind to dislikes/dismissals:
- _build_user_tag_profile only used liked/watched (positive only)
- dismiss_penalty was capped at 80% so hated content still surfaced
- _search_and_store had zero affinity filtering, any YouTube result entered the queue
- user_tag_affinity negative scores (written by dismiss/dislike) were never read
Now:
- _build_user_tag_profile reads directly from user_tag_affinity (positive + negative)
- _tag_relevance_score returns negative values, so disliked-tag channels score below zero and get dropped
- _search_and_store skips channels whose indexed videos match 3+ negatively-rated tags
- list_discovery post-filters channels already in the queue using the same neg-affinity check
- Removed the old _dismissed_channel_tags + dismiss_penalty (superseded)
