Endpoint details

Searches Steam news + announcements for tracked apps (one document per appid × gid; the latest items per app are kept). Filter by `app_id` for a single game's news, or full-text `q` over the title + contents. Sort enum: `date_desc` (newest first, default), `date_asc`. Dataset endpoints are built for repeatable structured search, facets, geo queries, pagination, and item lookup over indexed records. They do not trigger live scraping or proxy routing.
