Replace subtitle codec boolean with dropdown preference

- Replace prefer_srt_over_pgs boolean with subtitle_codec_preference dropdown
  Options: 0=Prefer PGS (default), 1=Prefer SRT, 2=No preference

- More intuitive UI with descriptive labels:
  - PGS bevorzugt (bessere Qualität beim Brennen)
  - SRT bevorzugt (flexibel, kann gestreamt werden)
  - Keine Präferenz

- Update scoring logic to handle three states instead of two
- Clarify that only_forced filter applies only during auto-selection
  Manual selection via dialog still shows all subtitles
