MP4 track timing was numerically unasserted. Every operator in the
PTS-to-ticks, duration, tkhd_dur and ctts chain could be flipped and the
whole suite stayed green, because no test decoded an output file and checked
a concrete number — the existing tests assert box presence and gross
container shape only. That is the crate's worst failure mode: a title muxes
"successfully" with silently wrong A/V sync or total duration, and nothing
above can tell.
The new tests build tracks with known PTS deltas and compare the emitted
stts, ctts and tkhd.duration against computed values.
Also lifted the faststart slack rule out of the match guard into
faststart_fits(). A leftover hole of 1-7 bytes cannot be expressed as any
ISO-BMFF box, since a box header is 8 bytes, so finish() must fall back to
moov-at-end rather than write a free box that lies about its own size. The
condition now has a name and a test instead of being an unexplained
`g == 0 || g >= 8` inside a pattern guard.
