fix(dash): inherit SegmentTemplate attributes across AdaptationSet/Representation

A SegmentTemplate can sit at both the AdaptationSet and Representation levels, with shared attrs like @timescale only on the outer node. The parser picked one or the other, dropping the outer node when an inner existed - so @timescale defaulted to 1 and only the first segment was emitted.

Merge instead: Representation node as base, inheriting any attribute or SegmentTimeline it omits from the AdaptationSet node (per ISO/IEC 23009-1).
