Test the three MediaProbe helpers nothing else would catch

MediaProbe's MIME table, its image-demuxer rule and its Int reader are pure
functions with no test at all, and each fails silently rather than loudly.
shortName falls through to substringAfter('/') and reports a plausible-looking
string that CodecNames may or may not still recognise, so a dropped arm turns a
stream-copyable file into a re-encode. isImageFormat is checked before anything
else in classify, so a wrong answer overrides both probes. intOr's runCatching
is the only thing standing between a Float frame rate and losing every other
track property the loop had read.

Widen the three to internal, as #57 did, and say in each KDoc why the shape is
what it is -- the _pipe suffix is not a substring test because yuv4mpegpipe is
raw video, and getInteger casts rather than coerces.

Every format name asserted came from ffprobe rather than from memory: a picked
.png reports png_pipe, a .jpg reports jpeg_pipe, a .y4m reports yuv4mpegpipe.

/**
* The image-demuxer rule, which looks arbitrary until it is read as a suffix.
*
* `MediaProbe.classify` asks [MediaProbe.isImageFormat] before anything else, so this one boolean
* overrides everything both probes found: true and the source-info card says "Image" and a size,
* false and it says container, codec and length. Neither mistake fails loudly.
*
* The rule has two halves and they are not the same shape. `image2` is a whole format name —
* FFprobe reports it for a numbered image sequence — while the piped demuxers are named one per
* image codec, so `_pipe` has to be matched as a *suffix*: `png_pipe`, `jpeg_pipe`, `webp_pipe`
* and some thirty more. Widening that suffix to a substring is the tempting simplification and it
* is wrong, because `yuv4mpegpipe` is raw video.
*
* Every format name asserted here was read back from `ffprobe -show_entries format=format_name`
* rather than guessed: a picked `.png` reports `png_pipe`, a picked `.jpg` reports `jpeg_pipe`, a
* `.y4m` reports `yuv4mpegpipe`, and `image2` needs the demuxer named explicitly.
*
* One known gap, deliberately not asserted either way: `image2pipe` is a real FFprobe format name
* for an image read from a stream, and this rule answers false for it — it is not `image2` and
* does not end in `_pipe`. Whether that is worth fixing is a question about picked-file behaviour
* on a device, not something to settle by pinning today's answer here.

/**

* two vocabularies meet, and most of its arms are translations rather than trimming — `video/avc`

* So a dropped or mistyped arm does not throw. It falls through to `substringAfter('/')` and
* reports a different, entirely plausible-looking string. `CodecNames` carries alias lists that
* happen to rescue some of those (`avc`, `av01`, `raw`) and not others (`mp4a-latm`,
* `x-vnd.on2.vp9`), which is exactly why leaning on the rescue is not a plan: an unrecognised
* codec is how a stream-copyable file quietly becomes a re-encode, and how the card ends up naming
* a codec no user has heard of. This table is the only place those arms are pinned.
*
* A plain JVM test rather than Robolectric: `MediaFormat.MIMETYPE_*` are Java compile-time String
* constants, so this test and `MediaProbe` alike carry the literals in their own bytecode and the
