3D MVC mux: audit round 2 (converged)

Second audit round converged (severity collapsed 6 HIGH -> 1; the one
HIGH was a bounded 32-element scan, not a defect; the sole spec MEDIUM
was the same false-positive re-raised — 0xBF matches ISO/IEC 14496-15
§7.6.2 verbatim). One genuine robustness fix plus coverage:

- extract_mvc_params: skip a zero-length NAL instead of abandoning the
  scan, so a stray length prefix before the subset SPS/PPS no longer
  silently drops 3D signalling. Test proves params after a zero-length
  NAL are still found.
- Tests: parser_for_mvc_dependent routes H.264 to a passthrough parser;
  passthrough with an IDR does not re-assert param sets (the keyframe &&
  !mvc branch).
- Document the per-playlist (not per-clip) is_3d latching as a known
  limitation (real main-feature playlists are uniformly 3D).
