fix: update asset video previews for card and list (#8908)

## Summary
Render generated video previews in list items using a real video element (instead of an image element (this caused errors before)) and include a custom play button with dimming per [the designs](https://www.figma.com/design/LVilZgHGk5RwWOkVN6yCEK/Queue-Progress-Modal?node-id=3928-39270&m=dev).

## Changes
- **What**:
  - List item preview path now renders a `video` element when `isVideoPreview` is true.
  - Video list preview uses `preload="metadata"`, `muted`, `playsinline`, and `pointer-events-none` so row click behavior stays unchanged.
  - Kept the custom overlay/play affordance and increased overlay dimming from `bg-black/10` to `bg-black/15`.
  - Updated tests for `AssetsListItem`, `MediaVideoTop`, and `AssetsSidebarListView`.

## Review Focus
- Confirm list item click behavior still opens/selects asset (no inline playback interaction).
- Confirm video list previews now show actual video frame path instead of broken image fallback.

## Limitation
Backend does not currently provide a dedicated poster/thumbnail image for video outputs in the job preview payload. In the frontend today, we can either show a video icon placeholder, or load/render the full video itself to obtain a preview frame.
