Test servers shut down without the 0.5s poll wait, unit tests refuse non-loopback lookups, and three load-sensitive tests are steadied. Pushes to dev test Python 3.11 only; the docs job builds with uv.
Segments carrying their own Range (DASH SegmentBase, HLS EXT-X-BYTERANGE) now
fail the attempt when a server ignores the Range and returns 200, instead of
writing the whole parent resource as the segment and corrupting the merge. The
resume path no longer clobbers such a slice's Range, and retries rewrite the
slice whole. All segment GETs request Accept-Encoding: identity and the rnet
path mirrors the gzip guard, so transparent CDN (de)compression can't break the
Content-Length truncation check. Adds tests pinning these plus the adaptive
start-at-cap wiring and the small-segment tail-probe gate.
