peter 5561d9a379 feat(downloads): every ready file is phone-safe — uploads and clips too
A share link is opened on whatever the friend holds. Measured on an iPhone and an iPad: AV1,
Matroska, HEVC tagged hev1 and MP3 inside an .mp4 fail there; Chrome and Firefox add HEVC and
10-bit / 4:4:4 H.264. The old check judged the codec NAME only and ran on downloads only, so a
10-bit H.264 passed, an upload went out exactly as it came (an iPhone's HEVC .mov, a webm, an mkv)
and a fast trim kept its source's codecs.

One rule now, `downloads/playable.py`: video is H.264 8-bit 4:2:0 + AAC in .mp4, audio-only is
.mp3 or AAC .m4a; `plan` says what must change, `build_cmd` re-encodes only the failing stream (or
remuxes). The worker applies it to a download, an editor clip and — new — an upload: media that
fails the rule is queued (asset pending, job queued) and the worker converts it, keeping only the
converted file (owner's choice). Until then the original sits at rel_path, so Retry starts from it
and a delete removes it; an upload that lost its last holder mid-conversion is reaped by the GC.
Every libx264 run (edit, concat, conversion) now pins `-pix_fmt yuv420p` — without it a 10-bit
source came out High 10. The download cache signature moves to v5 so a cached 10-bit asset
re-derives. The upload toast says when the file is still converting (HU/EN).

Tests: the plan for every measured class; real ffmpeg turning a 10-bit Matroska + Opus and an
mp3-in-mp4 into files the rule accepts (red without the pixel-format pin); the queued upload's
delete, cancel-then-GC, failed conversion and real worker conversion (the cleanup tests red
without their rules); the toast (red without the branch). Live on localdev: 9 fixture uploads
converted, every served file probed H.264 High yuv420p + AAC, or mp3 / m4a.

"""Download retention garbage collector (a scheduler job).
Five passes each run:
1. Pre-expiry warning — for ready assets expiring within the grace window, notify each holder
once (gc_notified flag) so a download isn't silently deleted.
2. Expiry deletion — delete assets past their TTL (files + row). The FK SET NULL nulls the
holders' jobs' asset_id, so those jobs surface as "expired" (re-downloadable) in the UI.
3. LRU eviction — if a total cache cap is set and exceeded, delete least-recently-accessed
ready assets until back under it.
4. Orphan reap — delete errored, fileless, unreferenced asset rows (they carry no TTL, so
passes 1-3 skip them; benign row-count hygiene).
5. Orphan FILE sweep — delete on-disk files/dirs no surviving asset owns (cruft left when a
re-download renames an asset, e.g. old accented channel dirs), skipping system trees and
anything newer than an hour so an in-flight download is never touched.
Runs in the API process (which mounts DOWNLOAD_ROOT). Pure disk/DB work — no YouTube quota.
