Remove auth --from-browser browser cookie extraction

Browser cookie auto-extraction is not viable: modern Chromium App-Bound
Encryption (Chrome 127+/current Brave) keys cookies off a SYSTEM-level
layer that cannot be decrypted off disk without admin rights and AV-flagged
SYSTEM impersonation, and fails on Brave specifically. Drop the
`--from-browser` flag, `_auth_from_browser`, `src/browser_tokens.py`, its
test, and the browser-cookie3 dependency. Auth is manual (DevTools wizard)
only.
