vcpkg resolves the ffmpeg dependency before anything builds and rejects
the manifest because the pinned 8.1.2#3 port has no `png` feature
("ffmpeg@8.1.2#3 does not have required feature png needed by oak"),
so every desktop job died in "Install dependencies (vcpkg manifest)"
and never reached the build or test steps.
PNG decoding in FFmpeg needs zlib (png_decoder_deps=zlib); libpng is
only the encoder backend and this port never enables it. Request
`zlib` instead.
Also point the stale comments/docs at the actual pin: the override is
8.1.2#3 (matching the ffmpeg-next 8.x binding after the 9.0.0 binding
was found broken upstream), not 9.0.1#1.

Roadmap
| Version | Theme | Core Deliverables | Boundary Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.3 | Plugin Architecture Milestone | Production-ready OpenFX host support | Not about quantity of plugins, but "any OFX plugin loads without crashing" |
| 0.4 | Color, Audio & Performance | .cube/.3dl support, scopes (waveform/vectorscope/histogram), three-way color wheels, waveform auto-sync, BWF timecode sync, audio meters (LUFS/VU), proxy media workflow, hardware-accelerated export (NVENC/VideoToolbox), batch render queue |
Combines the previous 0.4-0.6 scope into one usability milestone: color workflow, audio sync, and 4K/8K performance |
| 0.5 | Animation, Tracking & Collaboration | Bézier keyframe curve editor, basic point tracking, image stabilizer, full multicam angle switching, OpenTimelineIO, EDL/XML import/export | Combines the previous 0.7-0.8 scope into one timeline/interchange milestone |
| 0.6 | Stability Milestone | Project file format freeze (backward compatibility promise), crash recovery, autosave, memory optimization | "Feature freeze" testing period before 1.0 |
| 1.0 | Production Ready | Complete documentation, installers, known issues list, community support channels | Declared "ready for serious projects" |
