The host sampled the shared backbuffer copy through a view typed exactly like the
game's backbuffer. For games whose backbuffer is an *_SRGB format (e.g. Life is
Strange: Before the Storm -- confirmed R8G8B8A8_UNORM_SRGB / fmt 29 via the hook
log), the GPU decoded sRGB->linear on the sample, and the host then wrote those
linear values straight to its plain-UNORM swapchain with no re-encode, so the
mirror came out noticeably darker than the game.
Sample the copy as the plain-UNORM sibling of the format (srgb_to_unorm) so the
bytes pass through unchanged -- matching what WGC already does. The UNORM and
*_SRGB formats share a typeless group, so CopyResource from the producer's sRGB
texture into the host's UNORM copy is allowed. Non-sRGB formats are unaffected.
Adds srgb_format_test locking the mapping. All 6 tests pass.

Add an injected IDXGISwapChain::Present / Present1 hook as a lower-latency,
border-free alternative to WGC. The hook copies the swapchain backbuffer into a
shared keyed-mutex texture (coop_video_<pid>); the host opens it by name and
samples it. New opt-in HookSubsys_Video (protocol v6 -> v7); the Video mirror
panel gains a WGC vs Hooked source toggle that installs/removes the subsystem.
Verified by present_hook_test (drives a real D3D11 swapchain end-to-end and reads
the rendered pixels back through the shared texture) and against Phantom Brave
(D3D9: hook installs cleanly and stays idle, WGC fallback). All 5 tests pass.

Mirror the injected game's window into the host's borderless window so Steam
RPT streams a live copy of the game. No injection needed for video.
- capture/window_capture: WGC capture of a target HWND. Wraps our D3D11 device
as an IDirect3DDevice, creates a free-threaded frame pool + capture session,
hides the cursor and (best-effort) the capture border. Frames arrive on a WGC
thread and are handed to the render thread, which copies the newest into a
shader-resource texture and draws it -- keeping all D3D11 context use on one
thread. Handles window resize via frame-pool Recreate.
- capture/frame_renderer: fullscreen-triangle shader that blits the captured
texture letterboxed (aspect-preserved) into the window.
- capture_panel: "Mirror game window" toggle + lifecycle; target HWND comes
from the hook's reported game window.
- main: winrt apartment init; mirrored frame drawn as background, ImGui on top.
- CMake: link windowsapp + d3dcompiler.
Verified: builds clean; host starts (apartment init + shader compile succeed).
Visual capture quality/latency to be judged on a real game.
