Enable cleaner architecture by splitting into workspace with skylight-osd crate for on-screen display functionality.

- Add layout module (Padding, Margin, Border, BoxModel) - Add style module (Paint, TextStyle) - Add background() and corner_radius() to OsdFlashBuilder - Add examples: battery, equalizer, radar, sierpinski - Fix canvas trait to use ref parameters - Fix content bounds and center positioning
- Add a keyframe based API to the OsdWindowBuilder - interpolates numerical values of color and scale between the phases of keyframes - has change detection based on object order in the keyframe "drawing" - based on the the architecture at `.planning/osd-flash-animation-architecture.md` the documentation is on a module level at `crates/osd-flash/src/animation/mod.rs` - Add a pulsing animation example (crates/osd-flash/examples/recording_indicator_pulse.rs) - todo: there is a small flickering, so we explore if double buffering from CALayer might help us
Add `osd-flash-indicator` feature flag (enabled by default) that: - Uses dual cfg guard (target_os + feature) for proper platform handling - Falls back to NoopPresenter when disabled or on non-macOS - Removes osd-flash from dependency tree when disabled This provides a rollback strategy if OSD issues arise: cargo build --release --no-default-features Also adds --no-default-features CI testing to verify rollback path.

Tests failed on CI because the stop timer started before capture began. On slow CI machines, timeout expired before all frames were captured. TestApi now sends Stop when the last frame is returned, removing timing dependency entirely.

Replace anyhow with custom Error enum for better API stability: - Add Error::NotOnMainThread for thread safety violations - Add Error::NoScreenAvailable for missing display - Replace panics with proper error propagation in apply_position

## Interactive Recording with PTY and Hotkeys Replaces the simple subprocess shell with a PTY-based architecture and adds keyboard hotkeys for in-session control. - Solves #308 - Improves the Countdown timer, see #228 ### Changes **PTY shell spawning** - Shell now runs in a proper pseudo-terminal (`nix::pty::openpty`) - Enables raw mode keyboard interception while maintaining full shell interactivity **Keyboard hotkeys via crossterm** - F2: Capture a screenshot (saved as PNG with effects applied) - F3: Toggle keystroke capture (placeholder for future overlay feature) - Ctrl+D: End recording - Other input forwarded to shell unchanged **Event-driven actor model** - New `EventRouter` coordinates capture, input, shell output, and presenter actors - Uses `tokio::sync::broadcast` for inter-actor communication **Recording countdown** - 3-second countdown before capture begins **On-screen visual feedback (macOS, optional)** - moved to separate PR #322 **Headless recorder library API** - using t-rec as a library - `HeadlessRecorder` for programmatic recording of any window to GIF/MP4 - Builder pattern with type-safe config (`Decor`, `BackgroundColor`, `Wallpaper` enums) - Includes post-processing pipeline (shadows, corners, wallpaper backgrounds) **Lazy logging** - Log file (`t-rec-recording.log`) only created when something is logged ### Structure Reorganized as a Cargo workspace: - `crates/t-rec` — CLI and library --------- Signed-off-by: Sven Kanoldt <sven@d34dl0ck.me>
