fix(baseball): don't drop favourite MiLB games on the diagnostic path

The competition-level status fallback fixed the inning lookup, but the
favourite-team debug block a few lines above still read the event top-level
game_event["status"]. MiLB events (synthesized from the MLB Stats API into an
ESPN-like shape) populate only the competition-level status, so the identical
event that extracted fine for a non-favourite raised KeyError and returned
None once the team was a favourite.

Worst possible shape for the bug: it only hit the games the user cared most
about, and only on the path meant to help diagnose them. The existing
regression test missed it because it never passes favourites, so
is_favorite_game was False and the block never ran.

Uses the validated competition-level `status`, which
_extract_game_details_common guarantees is present by that point. Adds a
favourites-passing companion test; confirmed it reproduces the KeyError
without the fix.
