fix: step.replace is not a function when Gemini returns steps as objects

- PHP generateRecipeStream: normalize recipe.steps to plain strings after
  parsing Gemini JSON (handles [{text:'...'}, ...] objects gracefully)
- JS: add _stepStr(s) helper near cooking mode — safely extracts text from
  a step regardless of type (string or object {text/description/step key})
  and strips leading 'Passo N:' prefix in one place
- JS: replace all 7 manual step.replace(/^Passo.../) calls with _stepStr()
  across renderRecipe, renderCookingStep, startCookingMode, replayCookingTTS,
  toggleCookingTTS, navigateCookingStep — no more crash if Gemini schema drifts
