authors: add ryan-salazar profile with real bio; fix staff-reporter joinedDate

/authors/ryan-salazar was falling through to the generic
  'staff-reporter' entry — which is why the page rendered as
  "Broadcast Beat / Broadcast Beat Editorial Team / Joined January
  2020". Add a proper ryan-salazar entry to the authors map:

    name        Ryan Salazar
    title       Founder of Broadcast Beat
    joinedDate  December 2013
    bio         (~150 words, sourced from public bios on theorg.com,
                 JVC casebook, AV Beat, Broadcast Beat Q&A — covers
                 ProComm 1997 → SunSpots CTO → AV Beat 2005 → SMPTE
                 LIVE 2014 → Broadcast Beat 2013 → Broadcast Beat
                 Studios 2020 → NAB Show LIVE executive producer.)

  Also corrected the staff-reporter joinedDate to "December 2013"
  (matches actual founding date of the publication).

  Separately: bb.user_profiles.role for Ryan was 'administrator' and
  has been updated to 'founder' so any role-based displays show the
  right title.

bio: "Ryan Salazar is the founder of Broadcast Beat Magazine and the Executive Producer of NAB Show LIVE for the National Association of Broadcasters. With more than 20 years in audio, visual, and broadcast technology, Ryan began his career in 1997 as an audio engineer and producer/director at ProComm Studios, then spent seven years as Chief Technology Officer at SunSpots Productions running all AV and IT operations. In 2005 he launched AV Beat to cover the audio-visual industry, and in 2014 transitioned to SMPTE LIVE as Executive Producer and on-camera talent, interviewing industry luminaries including James Cameron, Douglas Trumbull, Billy Zane, and Richard Edlund. Ryan founded Broadcast Beat in December 2013 to give broadcast and production engineers a dedicated trade publication focused on the engineering side of the industry — live production, IP workflows, streaming, cloud, audio, and post. In 2020 he also became President and CTO of Broadcast Beat Studios, a production company based in South Florida. Today he continues to lead Broadcast Beat alongside Relevant Media Properties' growing portfolio of trade publications.",
