JMR-devandClaude Opus 5 794cef7b34 C2 (#177): cut MediaProbe's two-probe merge into a seam, and ask which probe wins
probe() runs MediaExtractor and FFprobe independently and merges the two, and every rule
in that merge is a decision nothing held. The reason is structural rather than an
oversight: RemuxTest drives the whole thing on a device against committed fixtures, but
only ever with one probe answering and the other agreeing or also failing. Nothing on any
source set can arrange for a real extractor and a real FFprobe to *disagree*, so every
elvis in the merge was taken in one direction and never the other.

The seam is `internal fun merge(Extracted?, FFprobeInfo?): InputProbe`, pulled out of
probe() whole -- probe() now reads the two probes, merges, and keeps the log. FFprobeInfo
becomes internal alongside it; Extracted already was, with a KDoc giving this exact reason,
and FFprobeInfo simply never got the same treatment. Half a signature being private is
what made the function unnameable from a test.

Eleven tests, and the mutations that hold them:

  image beats a real video codec      demote the isImage arm below the video arm
  the extractor wins on codecs        flip the elvis to FFprobe-first
  duration is the larger reading      replace maxOf with extractor-first
  dimensions prefer the extractor     flip the width elvis
  no recognised stream is unreadable  narrow the guard to `extracted == null && info == null`

All five red, then restored. One mutation I tried first was *semantically equivalent* --
moving the image arm above the both-null arm changes nothing for any reachable input -- so
it stayed green and is recorded here rather than counted: a green mutation is only evidence
when the mutation is a real change.

The last row is the arm the ticket was filed for: parsed, and carrying no stream either
probe recognised, which is what a container holding only subtitles looks like. Its input
was already being constructed elsewhere in the suite -- MediaProbeTrackWalkTest calls
extractedFrom(emptyList()) and gets exactly it -- and had never been handed to the merge.

568 -> 579 JVM tests, 0 failures.
MediaProbe: 35 -> 24 missed lines, 72 -> 40 missed branches.
Line 2103/2348 -> 2173/2348; branch 1029/1340 -> 1091/1342.

The branch denominator moved by two, and it is the seam that moved it -- worth stating
separately from the numerator, because CLAUDE.md's coverage entry has a documented history
of explaining its own numbers wrongly.
