fix: time out a stalled portal and sample motion across segments
Rust checks / windows-cross-check (push) Successful in 41s
Rust checks / linux (push) Failing after 5m39s

Hyprland's portal sometimes creates the session and never answers source
selection, before any picker appears. Recording now fails if the portal has
not reached its picker within 10 s; time in the picker is not limited. The
motion check uses the segment with the most motion, since capture can start
late.
