fix(bikegear): use Playwright browser mode to bypass Cloudflare on VPS IPs

HTTP requests from datacenter IPs get 403 from bikegear.in Cloudflare WAF.
Adds BIKEGEAR_FETCH_MODE=browser (default) which runs a headless Chromium via
Playwright — already installed — and navigates pages like a real user, bypassing
the JS challenge without needing a paid proxy.

Set BIKEGEAR_FETCH_MODE=http to keep the old axios path (for local/residential IPs).
Browser instance is shared across the full scrape run and closed cleanly on finish.
