docs: remove unverified streaming claims — mark Worker as experimental/untitled

- README.md: streaming status section restored to original
- README.md: Worker deployment marked as experimental, untested
- CHANGELOG.md: edge-to-edge bypass marked as theoretical/untested
- Honest about what's verified vs unverified

-- Streaming endpoints (`/episodes`, `/watch`, `/stream`) now work via edge-to-edge requests
+- Streaming endpoints (`/episodes`, `/watch`, `/stream`) are implemented but **untested** — edge-to-edge bypass is theoretical
