Reconnect streams in-process; fix for_window IPC rules
Root cause of the periodic drops (found via the new logs): mpv was exiting cleanly (err=nil, exit 0) with its status line at 100% — i.e. end-of-stream. UniFi Protect closes some cameras' RTSP connections every 20-40s; with --keep-open=no --idle=no mpv treated that as the file ending, exited, and the supervisor relaunched it ~3s later (the visible drop). - Add --loop-file=inf so mpv reopens the stream the instant it EOFs, in the same process and window: sub-second recovery, no teardown, no supervisor bounce. The supervisor now only fires for real crashes. - Clean up the logged exit "reason": strip ANSI escapes and skip mpv's transient A/V status prints, so a genuine error surfaces instead of "\x1b[KV: 00:00:35 / 00:00:35 (100%)". Tests cover the parsing. Also fold in the for_window IPC fix: sway's IPC parser splits comma- joined command lists at the top level and does not fold the continuation into for_window (unlike the config-file parser), so the map-time placement rules errored with "Only views can have borders" and never installed. Register each command separately; drop the redundant border none (the kiosk config already sets default_border none). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

UniFi Protect also *closes* some cameras' RTSP connections periodically (every
