Deluan 89026012ab fix(transcoding): make piped FLAC transcodes seekable
The FLAC muxer writes STREAMINFO before it knows the stream length, then
rewinds at the end to fill total_samples in. Navidrome pipes ffmpeg's stdout
(-f flac -), which is not seekable, so ffmpeg logs "unable to rewrite FLAC
header" and the field stays 0. A decoder needs total_samples to turn a
timestamp into a byte offset, so it reports an unknown duration and refuses to
seek. Online playback hides this because the client re-requests with a new
offset each time, but an offline copy is permanently unseekable, the symptom
reported against Symfonium where seeking a downloaded track jumps back to the
start.

Transcode now wraps its own output and rewrites total_samples as the first
bytes flow past. This lives in core/ffmpeg because the unseekable pipe is that
package's doing: buildDynamicArgs is what appends the trailing '-'. core/stream
only learns a target format and hands back an io.ReadCloser, so compensating
there leaked a transcoder implementation detail one layer up. TranscodeOptions
grows a Duration field alongside the existing Offset, which also puts the
duration-minus-offset arithmetic in the same function that emits -ss.

The wrapper runs on every transcode rather than only FLAC targets: the format
on a transcoding row is a declared target that nothing validates against the
command's actual -f, so a custom command can emit FLAC under any target_format.
The magic-byte check inside the wrapper is the authoritative test and costs a
26-byte peek. The output sample rate is read back out of the header ffmpeg just
wrote rather than taken from the transcode options, so a resampled (-ar) output
still gets the right count. Anything that is not a FLAC stream with an unset
total_samples passes through byte for byte.

Measured on a 177s source: before, total_samples=0 and ffprobe reported
duration N/A; after, total_samples=7807023 and duration 177.03s, with the audio
payload byte-identical. This affects every piped FLAC regardless of the source
format; only FLAC stores an authoritative "unknown", which is why mp3, opus
and aac survive the same pipe.

No SEEKTABLE is synthesised and the MD5 is left zero: both are optional, and
decoders binary-search using total_samples alone.
