Add ADDITIONAL_HF_REPOS config option for Hugging Face repos outside the org

[Copilot]

Mirrors the existing ADDITIONAL_REPOS (GitHub) pattern for Hugging Face. Each entry specifies the repo ID and its type since HF API endpoints differ by repo type.

Config format

ADDITIONAL_HF_REPOS:
  - repo: "user/dataset-name"
    type: "datasets"
  - repo: "user/model-name"
    type: "models"
  - repo: "user/space-name"
    type: "spaces"

The parameter is optional — defaults to [] when absent from config.yaml.

Changes

• main.js: In fetchHubItems(), after fetching org items for a given HF type, filters ADDITIONAL_HF_REPOS entries matching that type, deduplicates by item.id, and fetches each additional repo via ${API_BASE_URL}${repoType}/${entry.repo}. Added config validation and module-scope variable.
• scripts/export-tags.js: Same fetch-and-merge logic so the tag export script picks up tags from additional HF repos.
• public/config.yaml: New parameter with commented usage examples.
• README.md: Documented ADDITIONAL_HF_REPOS alongside ADDITIONAL_REPOS.

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)

Pull request overview

Adds a new ADDITIONAL_HF_REPOS config option to include Hugging Face datasets/models/spaces that are not owned by the configured org, and merges those items into the existing HF fetch flows (UI + tag export).

Changes:

• Adds ADDITIONAL_HF_REPOS parsing/defaulting in the app config and uses it to fetch extra HF items per repo type.
• Mirrors the same “fetch + merge” behavior in scripts/export-tags.js so exported tags include the additional HF repos.
• Documents the new config key in public/config.yaml and README.md.
