edde746 636fd48f40 fix(player): settle the watched patch the backend recorded itself
Watching an episode to the end left it stuck as watched for the rest of the
session. Unmarking it on another device and refreshing did nothing; only a
restart cleared it. Unlike #1829 this needs no second device to cause -- a
normal watch-through is enough, and the second device only makes it visible.

A threshold crossing writes an unacknowledged overlay patch, deliberately:
reporting success proves the backend received the report, not that it
classified the item as played, so the patch stays owed until something
settles it. _settleServerMark has three settled outcomes and only one of them
did. The explicit-mark branch promoted; the two branches that skip the mark
because the backend already recorded the watch itself -- Jellyfin from
/Sessions/Playing/Stopped, Plex from a timeline crossing past
LibraryVideoPlayedThreshold -- returned without promoting. Those are the
common paths, so nearly every completed playback stranded a patch that the
store then refused to suppress, because an unacknowledged entry is never
retired by an authoritative read.

Both now promote, through one idempotent helper that clears the id so the
delivery callback and the settle paths cannot promote twice.

Promotion has to follow delivery rather than the settle decision. A
marks-on-stop backend settles when the crossing latches, which happens before
the stop is sent, and until that stop lands the watch really is still owed --
promoting there would let a refresh retire a patch the server had never
heard about. MediaBrowser also drops a stop for a session it never opened, in
which case the watch it would have recorded never happens at all. So the stop
path promotes only once the report reached a session able to act on it, which
is the same condition that already governs whether the stop persists its
position; that condition is now named rather than recomputed, and reset with
its siblings when a session re-arms. The crossing branch needs no such gate:
it is assembled from two delivered reports, so delivery is already proven.

Verified against a live Jellyfin server driving the real client and tracker:
before, the server reported the item unwatched after a second device cleared
it while the overlay still rendered watched; after, the overlay follows the
server. The optimistic mark still appears immediately during playback -- it
now yields to a later authoritative read instead of outliving one.

The #1287 and #1740 contracts are unchanged: neither branch issues an
explicit mark, and the tests assert that alongside the promotion.
