Add media-switcher extension

[muhammadrizo-y]

Description

The Media Switcher extension provides a centralized, keyboard-driven way to manage active media sessions directly from Raycast. It streamlines audio and video workflows by allowing users to toggle playback, adjust volume, and switch between competing media sources without needing to hunt through open applications.

• Switch seamlessly between active media sessions, with the ability to pause others while activating your selection.
• Control playback state, track navigation, and volume levels using standardized shortcuts for both macOS and Windows.
• Bring target media applications to the foreground instantly via the "Reveal Application" action.
• Configure volume sensitivity through a dedicated Volume Step preference.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview

extensions/media-switcher/src/switch-media.tsx	Renders media sessions, schedules optional refreshes, validates numeric preferences, and now consumes the generated command preference type.
extensions/media-switcher/src/components/Actions.tsx	Defines the media, track, volume, reveal, copy, and refresh actions with platform-specific shortcuts.
extensions/media-switcher/package.json	Declares the Windows-only command, preferences, metadata, dependencies, and standard extension scripts.

@greptileai invalid points, Windows's media sessions only show one session per app, browser apps only show the last-used media tabs, apps like VLC don't show up in Windows's media sessions. remember this

Noted — those are real constraints of the Windows SMTC (System Media Transport Controls) API, and the extension behavior around them is expected, not a bug. I shouldn't flag these as issues in future reviews.
