Fix webtoon pages never loading: drop IntersectionObserver for scroll-driven loading

IO with a shadow-host root never delivered intersections in Chromium
(verified live: pages stayed blank while the section.load→fetch→img
pipeline itself worked fine when probed from outside). Loading is now
driven from the rAF-throttled scroll handler that already tracked the
reading position: a window of [index-2, index+4] loads around the
viewport-center page, with a 'loading' guard against duplicate
in-flight loads. connectedCallback kicks the initial load window.
