harry f2eb7139da feat: add OBS recording engine and validation probe
clipbin-obs starts the pinned libobs on a dedicated thread, opens exactly the
bundled plugin allowlist, and records official capture sources through one
hardware encoder into keyframe-aligned Matroska segments. Status reaches
Recording only once the source has a picture and the segment grows on disk.

clipbin-probe lists and verifies hardware encoders and records from a real
capture source, printing status, health and segment events for validation.
