docs: size bands scale with episode runtime
A band's floor and target now read as a rate against a 45-minute reference runtime, scaled by the series' per-episode runtime from TMDB. Missing or zero runtime falls back to the reference, keeping today's behaviour. Movies are explicitly unscaled. Closes the axis question in #208; #209 implements it.

**A band describes a rate, not a fixed size per episode.** The shipped values
|
||||||
|
are read against a **reference runtime of 45 minutes**: a 1080p target of 2 GiB
|
||||||
|
means 2 GiB per 45 minutes of episode. Before the per-episode figure is compared
|
||||||
|
against them, a band's floor and target are both scaled by
|
||||||
|
`runtime / 45`, where `runtime` is the series' minutes-per-episode from TMDB
|
||||||
|
metadata. For a typical drama around 45 minutes the shipped numbers keep exactly
|
||||||
|
their current meaning; a 22-minute show is judged against roughly half the floor
|
||||||
|
and half the target instead of being rejected for weighing half of what an hour
|
||||||
|
of video weighs. The shipped band values themselves do not change — the
|
||||||
|
reference runtime is chosen so they do not have to.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**A missing or zero runtime is the reference runtime.** When metadata carries no
|
||||||
|
per-episode runtime, or carries zero, the scale factor is 1 and the band applies
|
||||||
|
unscaled — exactly today's behaviour. The rule does not guess a duration, for
|
||||||
|
the same reason the unknown episode count does not guess a number.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Movies are not scaled.** This applies to episodes only. A movie's bands are
|
||||||
|
already tuned against feature length, so its floor and target keep their current
|
||||||
|
meaning regardless of the movie's own runtime.
