BuddyBoss theme: fix WooCommerce product gallery thumbnails hidden by Slick init race condition

	/**
	* BuddyBoss Theme - WooCommerce product gallery thumbnails fix
	*
	* Problem: BuddyBoss hides .flex-control-thumbs via CSS and only shows them
	* once its Slick carousel adds .slick-initialized. The theme runs that Slick
	* init a single time on document ready + setTimeout(0), which can fire BEFORE
	* WooCommerce's FlexSlider has created the thumbnail list on script-heavy
	* pages. Result: the thumbnail strip below the product image never appears.
	*
	* Fix: re-run the theme's own Slick init at the moment WooCommerce finishes
