ThePendulum f634dda5bb Implement sync_logic.py and ffmpeg_export.py (build order steps 2-3)
sync_logic.py: pure delay_ms computation with the documented sign
convention. Caught and fixed a sign error in my own test-fixture
ground-truth doc while writing the unit tests: the audio+350ms fixture
actually requires delay_ms=-350 (delay video), not +350, since the
audio is already the late one.

ffmpeg_export.py: ports ffdelay's two-branch command structure
(offset video input vs audio input depending on delay_ms sign) plus
its documented quirks (leading-zero float formatting, -ss/-t applied
to both inputs for clip mode, non-fatal stream-copy warnings surfaced
via stderr rather than swallowed).

Added an end-to-end integration test (scripts/test_export_roundtrip.py)
that independently re-detects event timing in the exported output via
ffmpeg scene-change/silence detection (not the same code path used to
build the export) and confirms both the positive- and negative-delay
branches bring drift down from ~350ms to under 1ms.
