gramps b0f8263414 feat(quality): learn the starting rate from real sessions, on the creator's permission
Each finished broadcast is filed locally — tier, probed encoder, rated, settled, steps
spent — and Models/RateHistory turns that into at most a suggestion. The app never
applies one: it asks before the next stream, "Use it" sets the rate, "Keep mine"
remembers that exact number so the same question does not return until the evidence
moves. Nothing leaves the machine.

Two rules keep it from nagging. The high-water mark is the highest rate that
*finished* a session with zero steps, not the highest seen, so one easy session (a
menu screen, a quiet game) cannot set a target the machine cannot hold. And it is
asymmetric: raising needs 10% above the current rate across five clean sessions of the
same tier and encoder, lowering needs three step-downs in five — fixing damage should
not wait for a percentage, and risking it should.

The encoder key is real, not decorative: StreamHealth.VideoEncoder is now filled from
the probe (FfmpegEncoder), so history recorded against NVENC is not applied to a
machine that later runs QSV. At startup, before anything has streamed, the last
session on that tier is the honest guess.
