gnattu e2586eed9b Fix concurrent ffmpeg segment racing
This is a nasty one. The failure mode is:

1. Request A started FFmpeg and waited for a segment.
2. Request B requested an earlier or far away segment.
3. Jellyfin thought FFmpeg should to restart at a different position.
4. Request B killed the existing transcoding job.
5. Killing that job cancelled the same token request A was using.
6. The cancellation produced http 500 to request A.

To fix this:

we lock transcoding job state changes and segment handling per playlist, and use a thread safe counter to track how many http responses are still using each job’s segments. A job is only stopped or replaced once that counter reaches zero.
