* feat(feeds): add IRNA, Mehr, Jerusalem Post, Ynetnews to middleeast

Four direct-RSS sources verified from a clean IP and absent everywhere
in the repo (src/config/feeds.ts, scripts/seed-*, ais-relay.cjs, RSS
allowlist). Closes the highest-ROI Iran / Israel domestic-press gap
from the ME source audit (PR #3226) with zero infra changes.

- IRNA        https://en.irna.ir/rss
- Mehr News   https://en.mehrnews.com/rss
- Jerusalem Post https://www.jpost.com/rss/rssfeedsheadlines.aspx
- Ynetnews    https://www.ynetnews.com/Integration/StoryRss3089.xml

Propaganda-risk metadata:
- IRNA + Mehr tagged high / Iran state-affiliated (join Press TV).
- JPost + Ynetnews tagged low with knownBiases for transparency.

RSS allowlist updated in all three mirrors (shared/, scripts/shared/,
api/_rss-allowed-domains.js) per the byte-identical mirror contract
enforced by tests/edge-functions.test.mjs.

Deferred (separate PRs):
- Times of Israel: already in allowlist; was removed from feeds for
  cloud-IP 403. Needs Decodo routing.
- IDF Spokesperson: idf.il has no direct RSS endpoint; needs scraper.
- Tasnim / Press TV RSS / Israel Hayom: known cloud-IP blocks.
- WAM / SPA / KUNA / QNA / BNA: public RSS endpoints are dead; sites
  migrated to SPAs or gate with 403.

Plan doc (PR #3226) overstated the gap: it audited only feeds.ts and
missed that travel advisories + US Embassy alerts are already covered
by scripts/seed-security-advisories.mjs. NOTAM claim in that doc is
also wrong: we use ICAO's global NOTAM API, not FAA.

* fix(feeds): enable IRNA, Mehr, Jerusalem Post, Ynetnews by default

Reviewer on #3236 flagged that adding the four new ME feeds to
FULL_FEEDS.middleeast alone leaves them disabled on first run, because
App.ts:661 persists computeDefaultDisabledSources() output derived from
DEFAULT_ENABLED_SOURCES. Users would have to manually re-enable via
Settings > Sources, defeating the purpose of broadening the default
ME mix.

Add the four new sources to DEFAULT_ENABLED_SOURCES.middleeast so they
ship on by default. Placement keeps them adjacent to their peers
(IRNA / Mehr with the other Iran sources, JPost / Ynetnews after
Haaretz). Risk/slant tags already in SOURCE_PROPAGANDA_RISK ensure
downstream digest dedup + summarization weights them correctly.

* style(feeds): move JPost + Ynetnews under Low-risk section header

Greptile on #3236 flagged that both entries are risk: 'low' but were
inserted above the `// Low risk - Independent with editorial standards`
comment header, making the section boundary misleading for future
contributors. Shift them under the header where they belong.

No runtime change; cosmetic ordering only.
