Read/write config files as UTF-8 on Windows (#4)

Path.read_text()/write_text() default to the platform encoding (cp1252
on Windows), which mangles or crashes on UTF-8 files. yt-dlp's
video.info.json is UTF-8 and routinely contains non-ASCII bytes, so on
Windows the parse raised UnicodeDecodeError, was swallowed by a bare
except, and the /watch report came back missing Title/Uploader.

- download.py: read video.info.json as UTF-8; log parse failures to
  stderr instead of swallowing them silently.
- whisper.py, setup.py: same UTF-8 fix on .env reads and writes for
  symmetry across platforms.
