Users can now choose between CheapShark, ITAD, or both via the
DEAL_SOURCES env var (comma-separated, default: "cheapshark"). When
"itad" is included, the bot polls GET /deals/v2 for current deals with
discount/price filtering and posts them with the same formatting style.
ITAD deals include built-in historical low detection via the API's
deal flags. Preflight checks enforce ITAD_API_KEY when ITAD is a
configured deal source.

The previous 0-100 scale with a * 10 conversion was confusing —
CheapShark returns deal ratings as floats (e.g. 9.8, 7.5) so the
config should match. Default is now 8.0 instead of 80.

Implements a Matrix bot that posts PC gaming deals and free game alerts:
- CheapShark API integration (Steam, GOG, Humble, GMG) polled every 2 hours
- Epic Games Store free games detection polled daily
- IsThereAnyDeal historical low price flagging (optional)
- SQLite deduplication with 30-day pruning
- First-run population (records existing deals without posting)
- Matrix-flavored HTML + plain text fallback messages
- Dockerfile for containerized deployment
