Subject: [PATCH] fix(platforms): exclude 'games' from platforms/all.json
 summary

Calculate and attach per-platform game counts as before, but write a lightweight platforms/all.json that omits the full 'games' lists to keep the summary file small (fits GitHub Pages limits). Adds a brief explanatory comment/docstring and builds summary_data without 'games' before calling write_json_files. Updates unit test to verify the 'games' key is not present in the written summary and that game_count and platform name remain correct.
