Subject: [PATCH] SEO: Update public files for search engine visibility

robots.txt: Allow / (landing page), disallow /api (JSON endpoints)
sitemap.xml: Updated lastmod to 2026-07-28, removed non-HTML URLs
index.html: Updated meta tags with 38 endpoints, richer keywords,
  JSON-LD schema.org/WebAPI with accurate metadata
manifest.json: Updated theme/background colors to match site (#faf9f5),
  better description with 38 endpoints

Key SEO changes:
- Title now includes '38 Endpoints'
- Meta description expanded with keywords (hls proxy, m3u8 proxy, etc)
- JSON-LD provider type changed from Organization to Person (author)
- Added license field to JSON-LD
