fix(08-02): revert repeat() inside lit-virtualizer, restore .renderItem + .keyFunction

repeat() as child content of lit-virtualizer bypasses virtualization,
rendering ALL items instead of only visible ones. This caused 2+ minute
loading times and UI freezing with large libraries.

The correct approach: use lit-virtualizer's native .renderItem and
.keyFunction properties which integrate with its scroll-based viewport
management.
