Improve infinite scrolling for smoother video navigation

Refactors the `CategoryRow` component in `netflix-grid.tsx` to implement a more robust and seamless infinite scrolling mechanism. This involves adjusting the `currentIndex` logic to consistently move forward, even when simulating backward movement, and modifying the `useEffect` hook to handle seamless resets from the end of the sequence. The video rendering is updated to triple the array of videos, ensuring a continuous loop without visual interruptions.
