fix(mux): read the inline SI form every published moq-cli writes

[kixelated]

Problem

#2909 moved the standalone SI tables out of the catalog onto per-table snapshot tracks and changed mpegts.si from {pid: {interval, sections}} to {pid: {table_id: {interval, track}}}. Every published moq-cli through 0.11.2 (and every moq-mux release) writes the old form, and the new reader has no path for it: BTreeMap<DisplayFromStr<u8>, _> hits the key sections and the whole Catalog<ts::Ext> consumer aborts with json: invalid digit found in string. That takes down moq export ts/srt and moq-srt's egress for any broadcast published by a released CLI whose source carried an SDT (ffmpeg, OBS, hardware encoders), which is how it surfaced: a current checkout's moq export ts fails against every relay of a fleet still on 0.11.0, while RTMP/WHEP/HLS of the same broadcast work.

Approach

Mpegts::si keeps its type and wire form; only the reader widens. A PID entry with a sections key decodes as the pre-table_id form: one SiEntry per table_id (byte 0 of each section) carrying its sections in a crate-private sections field and naming no track. The PID's interval applies to each table; a table it left unbounded gets the DVB maximum, as import would fill in. Export builds such an entry's snapshot directly and starts it in the Done state, so it re-emits on the interval exactly like a track that has ended, and picks up a revised inline table from the next catalog update. serialize_si writes the spec form unchanged (the inline sections are never written).

Verified against a live 0.11.0 publisher: moq export ts streams, and ffprobe reads the SDT's service_name back out of the rebuilt stream.

Impact

• No public API change. SiEntry gains a pub(crate) field on a #[non_exhaustive] struct.
• Wire: reading mpegts.si additionally accepts the pre-draft inline form. Writing is unchanged. The draft's "MUST refuse a non-integer table_id key" is knowingly not followed for this one legacy form; the draft text is left as is per the maintainer.

Alternatives

• Also dual-write the inline form for a deprecation window so released export ts/srt keep reading new publishers. Rejected: the draft forbids it, and it re-inlines sections the move to tracks exists to keep out of the catalog. Those readers need a release.
• No compatibility. Rejected: there is no release with the new form for users to move to yet, and a fleet rolls one node at a time.

Follow-ups

• Cut a moq-cli release so released readers can move to the track form.
• The old Si struct has no #[serde(default)] on sections, so a released reader fails on the new form with missing field sections; only a release fixes that side.

Walkthrough

The catalog now reads both nested SI entries and legacy PID-level inline sections. It groups legacy sections by table_id, applies interval fallbacks, and prevents inline sections from being serialized. The MPEG-TS exporter builds snapshots from inline sections and updates them when catalog entries change. Tests cover decoding, validation, mixed catalog entries, and section re-emission.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 24ccd

This restores MPEG-TS compatibility with older broadcasts while preserving track-only output, with no actionable merge-blocking risk identified.

1. A PID object with both sections and table_id keys silently drops the new-form entries: value.get("sections") routes to Inline, which ignores unknown keys (rs/moq-mux/src/container/ts/catalog.rs:249, AGENTS.md#Required). Reject when sections appears alongside any other key, e.g. deny_unknown_fields on Inline.
2. Reading now accepts the legacy sections key the draft says to refuse, with no draft update (drafts/draft-lcurley-moq-mpegts.md:171, AGENTS.md#Cross-Package Sync). Document legacy-read acceptance plus a changelog bullet; writing stays track-only.

Addressed both moq-bot findings in 335f201:

1. Mixed sections + table_id keys now fail loud: Inline in rs/moq-mux/src/container/ts/catalog.rs uses deny_unknown_fields, with a new mixed_si_forms_are_refused regression test. A PID entry with sections alongside any other key is rejected instead of silently dropping the new-form entries.
2. Legacy-read acceptance is now documented: drafts/draft-lcurley-moq-mpegts.md notes a consumer MAY accept the pre-table_id inline form and MUST NOT write it, plus a changelog bullet. Writing stays track-only.

Also fixed the failing Check CI: public docs on Mpegts::si linked to private SiEntry::sections (-D warnings rustdoc error). Now plain code ticks.

1. Inline entries with multiple sections in one sub-table lose all but the last on export (rs/moq-mux/src/container/ts/export.rs:361, AGENTS.md#Required). SiTrack::inline calls Snapshot::apply per section and apply replaces the whole Identity slot, so group sections by Identity and append instead, plus a two-section same-ext regression test.

Reject legacy inline entries during serialization.

deserialize_si stores legacy sections in SiEntry::sections and leaves track empty. serialize_si writes every entry, while sections is skipped. Parse-then-serialize therefore emits track: ""; it does not omit the PID or fail.

SiTrack::new then treats the entry as track-backed and attempts to look up the empty track name. It cannot re-emit the inline sections. Reject entries with populated sections or an empty track during serialization. Do not omit them, because omission also loses the SI data. Add a regression test for this parse-then-serialize path.

Rebased onto latest main and added 3d567c3 to unblock CI: test/justfile carries a duplicate set positional-arguments (lines 7 and 19, from #3873 on top of #3870) that makes just exit 1, failing Check/Test/Android for every PR. The file-wide line 7 already covers all shebang recipes, so the scoped duplicate is removed. Happy to split it out if preferred; CI needs it (or a main fix + rebase) to go green.

Prior commit e51e36a still holds the two moq-bot finding fixes plus the rustdoc fix.

1. Inline entries with two sections under one sub-table identity export only the last section (rs/moq-mux/src/container/ts/export.rs:361, AGENTS.md#Required). Group inline sections by Identity and append into the same slot instead of Snapshot::apply per section, plus a two-section same-identity regression test.
2. A parsed inline entry reserializes as track: "" with its sections silently dropped (rs/moq-mux/src/container/ts/catalog.rs:212, AGENTS.md#Required). Return a serializer error for entries with non-empty sections or an empty track, plus a parse-then-serialize regression test.

Addressed the CodeRabbit Major on parse-then-serialize (cf385db): verified against current code that a legacy-decoded entry re-serialized to track: \"\" since sections is skipped. serialize_si now fails loud on entries carrying inline sections instead of emitting that dangling reference, with docs updated and a track_backed_si_roundtrip_after_legacy_read regression test. No in-repo producer hits it: import builds track-backed entries (empty sections) and export consumes without serializing. SiTrack::new needs no change: an empty track lookup already warns and carries the last snapshot, and SI is auxiliary by design.

1. Inline entries with two sections of one sub-table export only the last: SiTrack::inline calls Snapshot::apply per section and apply replaces the whole Identity slot (rs/moq-mux/src/container/ts/export.rs:361, AGENTS.md#Required). Group entry.sections by Identity and append into one slot, plus a two-section same-identity export regression test.
2. The test/justfile duplicate removal is unrelated to the SI compat fix and belongs in its own PR (test/justfile:19, AGENTS.md#Required). Drop the hunk here and rebase once main carries the fix.

Rebased onto latest main. Dropped my test/justfile drive-by (3d567c3): main fixed the duplicate set positional-arguments itself with an equivalent change, which was also the source of the CONFLICTING state. The branch diff is back to exactly the PR's scope (mux catalog/export/tests + draft). cf385db (serialize refusal) and the two moq-bot finding fixes are intact on top.
