All four found in the pf-encode quality sweep and verified against source.
- NVENC partial-init leak (BOTH platforms, high): `init_session` publishes
`self.encoder` — and on Windows charges LIVE_SESSION_UNITS — *before* its
remaining fallible steps (bitstream buffers; on Linux also the input-surface
alloc and `register_resource`). A failure there left a live session with
`inited == false`, and every guard on the re-init path keys off `inited`, so
the next submit skipped teardown and overwrote `self.encoder`: the session
leaked permanently toward the driver's per-process cap, and its budget units
never returned, progressively starving parallel-display admission. `teardown`
already keys off `encoder.is_null()` rather than `inited`, so it cleans up
exactly this half-built state — it just was never called. Now invoked on the
`init_session` error path on both platforms.
- `can_encode_10bit` asked the wrong backend (medium): it resolved via
`linux_auto_is_vaapi`, which ignores `encoder_pref`, while `can_encode_444`
and `open_video` honour it. On a host that forces a backend (e.g.
`encoder_pref = "vaapi"` on an NVIDIA box) the probe answered for NVENC while
the session opened VAAPI, so the negotiated bit depth — and the HDR/SDR colour
label derived from it — described a backend that never ran. Now uses the same
`linux_zero_copy_is_vaapi` mirror, and `linux_auto_is_vaapi` carries a warning
that it resolves the `auto` case only and is not a dispatch mirror.
- Linux software arm ignored SW_BITRATE_CEIL (low): the Windows arm clamped
openh264 to 100 Mbps, the Linux arm passed the full negotiated rate. The
constant is now module-scope so both arms share one value.
- QSV/AMF env-parity (low): `PUNKTFUNK_IR_PERIOD_FRAMES` was a no-op on QSV
despite the comment claiming parity with AMF, and `PUNKTFUNK_NO_QSV_LTR` /
`PUNKTFUNK_INTRA_REFRESH` had dropped AMF's `trim()` and `yes`/`on` spellings,
so a value with stray whitespace silently did nothing on Intel while the same
value worked on AMD.
