Older sky-cam.conf versions may not define these. Fall back to the
canonical defaults so make-finals.sh works without requiring the user
to update their local conf.

Allows processing a single movement without waiting for the full backup
scan, e.g.:
./make-finals.sh ~/drives/data2-main --cam north --season Autumn --mvt 1
Filters are applied as soon as the relevant variable is known (cam before
calling season_info.py, season/mvt after) so skipped files cost almost
nothing.

The previous check used || true which masked ffprobe's non-zero exit
code. For files with a missing/partial moov atom ffprobe can print a
duration estimate then exit non-zero — the || true let that through.
Now use || raw_dur="" to honour the exit code, and add a second probe
for an actual video stream codec so files that report a duration but
have no decodable stream are also caught.

Short adagio movements (Summer Mvt 2 at 107s, Winter Mvt 2 at 132s, etc.)
compress each day to only 3-5 seconds of screen time at 1×. Looping the
music N times multiplies the per-day target duration proportionally so the
footage is less aggressively sped up and more watchable.
- sky-cam.conf: add MONTAGE_MUSIC_LOOPS and per-movement overrides
(Summer Mvt2=3×, Winter Mvt2=3×, Autumn Mvt2=2×, Summer Mvt3=2×, Spring Mvt2=2×)
- 4-seasons.sh: multiply target_per_clip by loops
- montage-mvt.sh: compute effective_duration, use -stream_loop for audio,
fix fade_out_start, -t, and post-build duration check
- make-finals.sh: multiply target by loops

Check ffprobe output before encoding — empty/N/A duration means the
file is corrupt or truncated; skip with a clear message rather than
passing a bad input to ffmpeg.

Scans all *-temp.mp4 files under a backup root regardless of directory
structure, infers camera name from path, uses season_info.py for correct
movement sizing, writes finals to MOVIES_DIR. Handles messy nested paths
(south/south/, movies/south/, etc.) and deduplicates via EXISTS check.
