Christian PillsburyandClaude Opus 4.8 c3e137cf39 feat(spf): recover end-of-stream stall on skewed A/V (spike) ...

Make a complete VOD reach native `ended` (and loop) reliably even when audio
and video tracks end a few ms apart, via two narrow changes in the behaviors
that already own end-of-playback:

1. `end-of-stream` reactor — add `LAST_SEGMENT_REACHED_SLACK` (0.5s) to the
   "playhead reached the last segment" gate. A tiny final segment (e.g. Apple's
   ~44ms last segment) starts at the buffered end and Chrome freezes the
   playhead ~50-70ms short of it, so a strict `currentTime >= lastSegStart`
   never opens -> `endOfStream()` never fires -> MediaSource stays `'open'` ->
   frozen. The slack fires EOS just before the freeze.

2. `recover-end-stall` (new DOM behavior) — on `waiting`, if the MediaSource is
   `'ended'`, duration is finite, and the playhead is within
   `endStallNudgeWindow` (0.2s, config) of the reachable buffered end, nudge
   `currentTime = duration` to force native `ended`. Event-driven, no poll
   (`waiting` fires at ~0ms). Inert for live and clean-ending streams.

Composed in both engines. ADR:
