The Vulkan path's receive_frame returns at SUBMISSION (~0.1 ms) — the
hardware decodes asynchronously, so the decode stat was truthful but
measured the wrong boundary. The pump now ships the frame to the
presenter FIRST, then waits the frame's timeline fence (vkWaitSemaphores
resolved through the shared device's proc chain) and stamps
received→decode-COMPLETE — true NVDEC time at zero pipeline cost, since
the presenter's own GPU wait is what actually gates sampling. Software/
VAAPI keep their synchronous stamps.
Also: Alt+Enter joins F11 as the fullscreen toggle (some keyboards' Fn
layer sends a media key for plain F11 — observed on glass as
'F11 only works with shift'); the shell's shortcuts panel lists both.

FFmpeg's Vulkan Video decoder now runs on the PRESENTER's own VkDevice —
the decoded VkImage feeds the existing CICP CSC pass directly: zero
copy, no interop, and NVIDIA gets hardware decode for the first time
(its VAAPI is unusable by design). One decode architecture for every
vendor going forward; VAAPI-dmabuf and software remain the fallbacks
(auto: vulkan → vaapi → software; PUNKTFUNK_DECODER=vulkan pins it).
Presenter: instance 1.3; probes VK_KHR_video_queue/decode_queue + codec
extensions, a VIDEO_DECODE queue family (+ its codec caps via
QueueFamilyVideoPropertiesKHR), and the samplerYcbcrConversion/
timelineSemaphore/synchronization2 features — all enabled at device
creation when present, exported as a VulkanDecodeDevice handle bundle.
Decoder: AVVulkanDeviceContext built over those handles via pf-ffvk
(features chain, extension lists, deprecated queue indices + the qf[]
map); get_format supplies OUR frames context with MUTABLE_FORMAT so the
presenter's per-plane views are legal; output is DecodedImage::VkFrame
carrying AVVkFrame/frames-ctx pointers plus the lock fns.
Present: R8+R8G8 plane views over the multiplanar image, the live sync
state read under the AVVulkanFramesContext lock, a timeline-semaphore
wait(sem_value)/signal(sem_value+1) folded into the submit, layout/
queue-family/sem_value written back per FFmpeg's contract, and the frame
guard parked in the retire queue until the fence. CSC pass + video
framebuffer are now unconditional (NVIDIA has no dmabuf-import path).
Verified on the RTX 5070 Ti: device creates with decode_qf=3,
caps=DECODE_H264|H265|AV1|VP9; swapchain unaffected. Live stream
validation next.

ffmpeg-sys-next binds a curated header list that omits every
hwcontext_*.h, so AVVulkanDeviceContext/AVVulkanFramesContext/AVVkFrame
— the surface that lets FFmpeg's Vulkan Video decoder run on the
presenter's own VkDevice and hand the decoded VkImages back — had no
Rust bindings at all. pf-ffvk generates them at build time from the
SYSTEM headers, which is the only ABI-safe option: the struct layout
depends on FF_API_* deprecation gates resolved in libavutil/version.h
(confirmed: FFmpeg 8.1 still carries the FIXED_QUEUES fields). Ships
ash<->vulkan.h handle conversions; opaque AVHW*/AVFrame types keep
ffmpeg-sys-next the owner of the core surface (pointer casts across).
Needs vulkan-headers (Arch) / libvulkan-dev (CI, added);
PF_FFVK_VULKAN_INCLUDE overrides for cross builds. Verified: bindgen
layout tests pass, av_vk_frame_alloc links and zero-initializes.
