2026-08-05	ipc: response with video path in save recording/replay	dec05eba

2026-08-02	Add gsr-cli program that sends ipc commands to gpu-screen-recorder	dec05eba
	gsr-cli sends a command to the ipc socket of a running GPU Screen Recorder and exits with 0 when it replied with ok, printing the reason to stderr when it didn't, which means the commands don't have to be sent blindly like signals are. The status command checks if GPU Screen Recorder is running by connecting to the socket without sending a command, so it's also correct when a killed instance left the socket behind. The json helpers moved into src/json.c to be shared between the two programs.
2026-08-02	Add -ipc option to control gpu-screen-recorder over a unix domain socket	dec05eba
	The socket accepts the same commands as the signal handlers, except that saving a replay takes an arbitrary number of seconds instead of only the fixed times that the signals provide. Requests and replies are newline terminated json objects and every request is replied to, parsed with the sj.h json library that was added to external. Requests are handled on a thread that only runs while the recorder exists, so the recorder control fields are now atomics, which they have to be now that another thread writes them.
