- Remove .gif from _isVideo() in ThreadMediaViewerPage so GIFs are
  rendered via Image.network() (Flutter built-in animated GIF support)
  instead of the media_kit decoder which fails to initialize
- Fix open/setPlaylistMode ordering in _ThreadMediaVideoPage,
  ThreadVideoPlayerPage, and SavedMediaVideoPage: call open(play:false)
  first, then setPlaylistMode(loop), then play() — mirrors the working
  pattern in FeedVideoPlayer and ensures loop mode is applied after
  open() clears the player's internal playlist state

- ios/Runner.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj: bump MARKETING_VERSION 0.11.1
  → 0.11.2 and CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION 63 → 64 to match pubspec.yaml

- lib/main.dart: change VisibilityDetectorController.instance.updateInterval
  from Duration.zero → const Duration(milliseconds:100). Duration.zero fires
  the visibility callback on every frame; with multiple video widgets in a
  thread that caused excessive native-player lifecycle work on iOS, leading
  to crashes under scroll pressure.

- lib/widgets/feed_video_player.dart:
  · Reduce iOS deferred-disposal timer from 8 s → 3 s and hard cap from
    18 → 5 entries. Fewer concurrently alive native players = less memory
    pressure and fewer file-descriptor leaks.
  · Add throttled setState in _positionSub: once _hasFirstFrame is true,
    call setState() at most every 250 ms. Previously _position was updated
    without setState so LinearProgressIndicator only refreshed when an
    unrelated state change occurred, making it appear frozen or laggy.
  · Reset _lastPositionUiUpdate in _resetForNewSource() and dispose() so
    stale timestamps don't suppress the first progress-bar update.

…ayer pool

- New lib/services/feed_player_pool.dart: global fixed-size pool (2 slots iOS, 3 Android) so at most N+1 native Player instances ever exist app-wide
- Rewrite FeedVideoPlayer to acquire/release pool slots instead of creating/disposing Players on scroll; no more deferred-dispose timer chain
- Fix _applyAudioMode: remove AudioTrack.no() calls (root cause of ~1s stutter per media-kit #964); only apply AudioTrack.auto() on unmute; mute purely via setVolume(0)
- Remove the 90ms Future.delayed workaround in _playIfNeeded (it was itself triggering the stutter)
- Move PlaylistMode.loop setup to pool initialisation (before open()), persists across open() calls
- Add _acquiredPlayerKey guard to correctly release pool slots even when widget.playerKey changes via didUpdateWidget
- Dispose pool on app shutdown in AppWithTheme.dispose()

device_info_plus 12.4.0 calls [[NSProcessInfo processInfo] isiOSAppOnVision]
which only exists in the visionOS-capable iOS SDK headers (Xcode 15.3+).
On a standard macos-latest CI runner the compile fails with:
  "No visible @interface for 'NSProcessInfo' declares the selector 'isiOSAppOnVision'"

Add a post_install Ruby block that finds FPPDeviceInfoPlusPlugin.m in the
Pods sandbox and comments out all lines referencing the missing selector,
allowing the build to succeed without requiring visionOS SDK headers.

device_info_plus 12.4.0 requires Xcode 26.1.1+ and Flutter 3.38.1+,
neither of which are available on the CI runner (Flutter 3.35.6, macos-latest).
12.4.0 introduced the isiOSAppOnVision NSProcessInfo call that fails to compile
without the visionOS SDK headers.

Pin to >=12.1.0 <12.4.0 so pub resolves to 12.3.0 which works with the
current CI stack. Remove the Podfile post_install hack that was patching
FPPDeviceInfoPlusPlugin.m, since the root cause is now addressed properly.

…equirements

- Revert device_info_plus back to ^12.1.0 (no longer need the version cap)
- CI: bump flutter-version from 3.35.6 to 3.38.1 in both jobs
- CI: add maxim-lobanov/setup-xcode@v1 step (xcode-version: 26.1) to iOS job
- android/settings.gradle: AGP 8.9.1 -> 8.12.1, Kotlin 2.1.0 -> 2.2.0

Previously _open() was always called in initState (even for inactive
adjacent pages pre-built by PageView during the scroll animation).
didUpdateWidget then called _player.play() immediately on activation, but
if _player.open(play:false) was still in flight that play() was a no-op;
open() then completed leaving the player paused, causing a visible pause
before the trailing `if (isActive) play()` in _open() fired.

Fix mirrors _ThreadMediaVideoPage._openAndPlay():
- Only call _open() in initState when the page is initially active
- Call _open() (not _player.play()) in didUpdateWidget on activation, so
  play() is always sequenced after open() in the same async chain
- Add generation counter so a superseded async open never starts playback
  after a newer one has taken over

- PopScope(canPop: false) → canPop: true so iOS swipe-back gesture works.
  Explicit back button still calls _closeViewer() returning the post ID
  for thread scroll; swipe-back returns null result which is safely
  handled by the existing onDismiss(null) early-return in thread_page.

- Remove tap-to-toggle (_showControls / _controlsHideTimer /
  _startControlsAutoHide) from _ThreadMediaVideoPage. Controls are now
  always visible, matching the SavedMediaVideoPage overlay. This also
  eliminates the bug where clicking play/pause or the slider would
  simultaneously toggle controls off via the outer GestureDetector.

- Remove the outer GestureDetector(onTap) wrapper from the build method;
  the scrub GestureDetector (Positioned.fill left:24) is unchanged.
