Since the ITAD API only sorts by discount or price (no time-based sort),
fetching the full 200-deal window per country ensures our client-side
filtering sees every available deal rather than just the top N by discount.
The dedup database already prevents reposting, so the extra data is cheap.

- ITAD deals can now be fetched from multiple countries simultaneously via
ITAD_COUNTRIES (e.g. US,CA,GB,DE). Deals are merged across regions and
deduplicated by game+shop, with the first country taking priority.
- Prices from non-USD regions are normalised to USD using exchange rates
so filtering (max price) works consistently across countries.
- ITAD results are now sorted by newest deals first (client-side by
timestamp) instead of only by highest discount, reducing missed deals.
- Default fetch limit raised from 20 to 100 to capture more deals.
- Display currency is now configurable: DEFAULT_CURRENCY sets the primary
currency shown first, EXTRA_CURRENCIES sets additional ones. All
Frankfurter-supported currencies are available with proper symbols.
- Filtering is now per-source with dedicated env vars:
CHEAPSHARK_MIN_DISCOUNT, CHEAPSHARK_MIN_RATING, CHEAPSHARK_MAX_PRICE,
ITAD_MIN_DISCOUNT, ITAD_MAX_PRICE, ITAD_DEALS_LIMIT. Shared fallbacks
(MIN_DISCOUNT_PERCENT, MAX_PRICE) are still supported. Legacy
MAX_PRICE_USD and MIN_DEAL_RATING continue to work as fallbacks.

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.
