Video pages: stack Up Next below the video under 1300px

Between 992px and 1300px the left nav (240px) and the 300px side rail left
the video column under ~700px. Up Next titles collapsed into a ~124px
channel and the match About card broke its VS row apart, so a window that
was not full-screen lost information instead of reflowing.

Add one additive @media (max-width: 1300px) block per video type that fires
the SAME stacking the <=991px layout already did, just earlier: layout goes
column, video section and sidebar go full width. Match also collapses
fighters-row to 1fr and stacks the event header.

Nothing is removed. >=1301px is byte-for-byte the old desktop layout, and
the <=991px block still owns the phone treatment (thumb-on-top cards, match
review view, bottom sheet).

Verified by headless render at 1600/1360/1200/1050/960/820/700/420: no
horizontal overflow at any width, desktop unchanged, and a music video still
plays (readyState 4, stream advancing) per the match-type-only rule.
Generic could not be checked visually - there are no generic videos in the
database - but its block is identical to music's.

+  SCORE BAR — copy this markup verbatim. Do not restructure it.
+  Placement: inside the player container, which must be position:relative.
+  Data holes are marked with {{ }} — replace ONLY those, nothing else.
+  Hide a part by setting its element's display to none (never remove the element's siblings' flex sizing).
+
+  Rules that break the design if changed:
+   - the panel has transform:skewX(-9deg); ONE inner row has transform:skewX(9deg). Never counter-skew individual children.
+   - every text span keeps flex:1 1 auto; min-width:0; overflow:hidden; text-overflow:ellipsis
+   - the logo (46px) and score (60px) boxes keep flex:none
+   - bottom:56px keeps the bar above the 48px control band
