[FEATURE] Support multiple saved sessions, not just one auto-saved video #1787

Description

@magic-peach

Feature description
src/lib/sessionDB.ts auto-saves the current video to IndexedDB under a single hardcoded key ("currentVideo", line 14) — only the most recent session ever persists; starting a new one silently overwrites the last.

Problem this solves
A user working on multiple videos across sessions (e.g., resizing several clips for different platforms over a few days) currently loses access to anything but the last one they touched.

Proposed solution
Extend sessionDB.ts to store multiple named/timestamped sessions instead of one fixed key, with a simple "Recent sessions" picker on load.

Alternatives considered
None here is scoped narrowly to video file sessions — this is distinct from #1541 ("Custom Template Save Feature"), which is about saving reusable settings/recipe presets via localStorage, not saved video files with their edits.
