Arkadiusz Fal cdcbe51370 Stop decoding video during background playback on iOS
Pausing rendering in the background left mpv decoding every frame
(hardware decode plus copy back) only to drop it, keeping a 1080p video
at ~15% CPU with the screen off. After 5 s in the background without PiP
the video track is now disabled (vid=no); returning to the foreground
re-enables it and seeks exactly to the current position, which keeps
audio and video in sync (avsync 0.000 vs -0.044 and 22 drops without the
seek). Streams loaded while backgrounded start with video disabled.
Background CPU drops to ~3.7% on an iPhone 12 mini.
