Fix newsletter listing display name and date format

- Fix slug extraction to strip URL path prefixes (SmartDrivingCar.Com/)
- Fix display_name to use " - " separator (e.g., "14.1 - Kolluri")
- Change date format from YYYY-MM-DD to friendly "January 9, 2026"
- Move 14.1-Kolluri newsletter to correct directory path
