Christian PillsburyandClaude Opus 4.8 3983195661 fix(spf): re-read track timeline after fetch to avoid clobbering the live anchor
A track reload read its `previous` (the prior window it carries the timeline
forward from) before the playlist fetch await, then parsed against that stale
snapshot after. When anchor-live-tracks established the shared live anchor during
the fetch — stamping every track's timeline via positionAllTracksToAnchor — the
in-flight reload wrote a window built on the pre-stamp (un-anchored) snapshot,
clobbering the stamp. Anchoring is pin-once, so the track was never re-corrected:
its model timeline sat seconds off the anchor and the loader stopped fetching it
near currentTime. Observed live on Mux LL-HLS as the selected video track
stranded ~hundreds of seconds off the anchor while its un-reloaded ABR-shell
siblings stayed anchored — video never buffered, playback stalled.

Re-read `previous` from a fresh peek after the fetch and parse against that. With
no yield between the re-read and the write, no concurrent writer can interleave,
so the stamp is carried forward instead of lost.
