Bug Report
Description
After updating the extension, all previously-configured keyboard shortcuts stop working. Shortcuts need to be re-set to function again.
Steps to reproduce
- Set custom keyboard shortcuts in extension settings
- Update the extension to a new version
- Try using the shortcuts on any YouTube page
- Observe shortcuts do not work
Expected behavior
Shortcuts should persist across extension updates.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue: configure keyboard shortcuts in the extension settings, update the extension, and test them on a YouTube page. Trace how shortcut settings are persisted across updates; done means previously configured shortcuts continue working after an update without being reset.
