feat: expand market coverage to politics, tech, and events categories

- polymarket.py: add keyword lists for politics (election, trump, ukraine…),
  tech (AI, OpenAI, Apple, nvidia…), and events (super bowl, oscar, spacex…);
  introduce _detect_category() so all four categories flow through a single
  code path; filter already-expired markets (end_dt < now) in addition to
  the existing future-cutoff filter; log per-category counts at startup
- bayesian.py: extend is_any_supported to include is_politics / is_tech /
  is_events; use BTC as a risk-sentiment proxy for non-crypto categories
  (halved weight to reflect weaker correlation); cap confidence_cap at 0.65
  for macro/politics/tech/events; MIN_EDGE stays at 0.10
