Open video watching and news AI summaries to logged-out users#578

Both were gated behind login for no reason — the video is a YouTube iframe (zero cost) and the AI summary is pre-generated and cached (zero cost to serve). Gating them just blocked sharing and discovery with no upside, especially now that signup is invite-only. video/video.go: removed the guest block that showed a thumbnail with 'Login to watch' instead of the actual player. Everyone now gets the full embed. news/news.go: removed the guest branch that duplicated the entire article template just to hide the summary behind a login prompt. Everyone now sees the same article page with the AI summary.
