fix(vaults): stop false bad-key flags from a failed decode check
Judge a vault KID only on a file whose KID map holds it, tell remote vaults of a bad pair only once another key replaces it, and let the server CDM unflag a pair it returns; the server never flags a CDM-licensed pair. Log FFmpeg stderr on a failed check and name the missing CDM when none is set.

### Wrong keys from a poisoned vault
|
||||
|
||||
A public vault can return the right KID with a wrong content key. The decrypters accept a wrong content key and write noise. unshackle therefore trusts a content key from a vault only after FFmpeg decodes the decrypted track with strict error detection. For a fragmented MP4, unshackle reads from the encrypted file which fragments each KID encrypts, and FFmpeg decodes up to three windows of each KID: from its first, middle and last fragment on through the next fragments of that KID, for up to 4 seconds. A window never runs into a fragment of another KID or a clear fragment. A clear lead or a lead under another KID therefore cannot hide a wrong content key, and only the KID that fails is flagged. A KID that is not in this map, and every KID of any other file, gets one check of the whole file. FFmpeg decodes the first seconds and the last seconds. A failure there flags each of those KIDs. When a mapped KID fails, the KIDs that are not in the map get no verdict from that pass; the retry with the replaced key judges them. Content keys from a licence skip this check. A file this FFmpeg build cannot judge counts as a pass, never as a wrong content key: a codec it has no decoder for, or a header it cannot read. A pass is not proof. A wrong content key for HEVC video can decode without an error for some seconds, most often at a low resolution, and that content key passes the check. Without FFmpeg there is no check at all.

A window never runs into a fragment of another KID or a clear fragment. A clear lead or a lead under another KID therefore cannot hide a wrong content key, and only the KID that fails is flagged. When every KID in the map has a content key, the map is complete, and a KID that is not in it does not encrypt this file. This file does not judge that KID; the file of its own track judges it. A KID that is not in an incomplete map, for example one with an all-zero KID, and every KID of any other file, gets one check of the whole file. FFmpeg decodes the first seconds and the last seconds. A failure there flags each of those KIDs. When a mapped KID fails, the KIDs that are not in the map get no verdict from that pass; the retry with the replaced key judges them.

When the decode fails, unshackle:
|

|

1. Flags the KID:KEY in the `bad_keys` table of every local SQLite vault, with the service and the name of the vault it came from. The pair also goes out of the service table, except in a vault marked `no_push`, where only the flag is written. A flagged pair cannot go back into a local vault from another vault, a later run, or `kv copy`. A licence that returns the pair clears the flag and stores it. An `API` vault that served the pair also gets a report; `HTTP` and `MySQL` vaults have no report route. A pair from a local vault goes to no remote vault, even when a remote vault holds the same pair.

An `API` vault that served the pair gets a report only when a different content key for that KID is accepted. When the CDM returns the same content key, that vault gets no report. `HTTP` and `MySQL` vaults have no report route. A pair from a local vault goes to no remote vault, even when a remote vault holds the same pair.

2. Restores the ciphertext from a hard link it made before decryption, then asks for the content key again. Every vault lookup skips a flagged pair, so the request reaches the remaining vaults and then the CDM. A remote answer that arrived after the winning one is reused instead of queried again.
|
||||
3. Removes the flag when the CDM returns the same content key, because then the decode check was wrong, not the content key. A content key from another vault is checked in its turn, and flagged as well if it also fails.
