feat(vegas): keep live games in the ticker by default

Browse Source 
display.vegas_scroll.live_in_ticker now defaults to true: through a live
game the marquee keeps running and the live scoreboard takes extra turns in
it -- its cards updating in place while they scroll -- instead of the ticker
giving way to the full-screen scoreboard.

The new default would reach nobody on its own: every existing config holds
an explicit false copied from the template (there was no control for it),
and the template merge only adds missing keys. ConfigManager therefore turns
a stored false on once, with a backup, and records live_in_ticker_migrated
so a false chosen afterwards stays. The marker is never in the template.

A "Keep live games in the ticker" checkbox under Vegas mode sets it. Tests
that pin the full-screen takeover now say live_in_ticker=false.

### Live Content in the Ticker
By default, live content **preempts** Vegas mode: while any plugin reports
live priority, the display controller refuses to run the ticker and shows
that plugin's full-screen display instead. You get a big readable scoreboard,
but the marquee stops entirely for the duration of the game.
By default (since 3.8.0) live content **stays in the ticker** and takes
**extra turns inside it**, and a scoreboard that supports live cards updates
the score on a card already crossing the screen (`live_refresh`, "Update live
content while it scrolls").
Set `live_in_ticker` to keep the ticker running and let live content take
**extra turns inside it** instead:
To get the old behaviour back -- live content **preempts** Vegas mode: while
any plugin reports live priority the ticker stops and that plugin's
full-screen display is shown instead -- untick **Keep live games in the
ticker** under Vegas mode, or set `live_in_ticker` to `false`:
```json
"vegas_scroll": {
"live_in_ticker": false
}
```
Until 3.8.0 `false` was the default and every config held it, copied from
the template. The first start on 3.8.0 turns it on once (a backup of the
config is kept as `config.json.backup`, and `live_in_ticker_migrated` records
that it ran); a `false` set after that is left alone.
The weights below apply while live content is in the ticker:
```json
"vegas_scroll": {
"live_in_ticker": true,
"live_weight": 3,
"favorite_live_weight": 5
}
