claude-noether 0bfc4ab03e ffmpeg-v4l2-request-fourier: substitute H.264 qpel mc20 → daedalus-fourier
H264QpelContext.put_h264_qpel_pixels_tab[1][2] (8x8 luma horizontal
half-pel, 6-tap "put" — the canonical representative of the H.264
luma motion-compensation family) now dispatches through
daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_qpel_mc20 instead of
ff_put_h264_qpel8_mc20_neon.

Cycle 9 of the daedalus-v4l2#11 step 2 substitution arc; closes the
4-cycle libavcodec.so substitution sequence:

  cycle 6 (PR #76)  H.264 IDCT 4x4         done
  cycle 7 (PR #85)  H.264 IDCT 8x8         done
  cycle 8 (PR #86)  H.264 luma-v deblock   done
  cycle 9 (this)    H.264 qpel mc20

Bumps daedalus-fourier pin d87239d → 209a421 (PR #2 — public API
gains daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_qpel_mc20 +
DAEDALUS_KERNEL_H264_QPEL_MC20).

Verdict per docs/k9_h264qpel_mc20.md: CPU NEON.  Per-block 7.6 ns at
131 Mblock/s gives 135× margin over 30 fps 1080p; QPU dispatch floor
at ~250 ns makes any V3D shader strictly worse.  Substitution is
plumbing-only — same daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu pthread_once shape
the cycles 6/7/8 shims already own (kept SEPARATE from the H264DSP
shim's ctx because H264QPEL is its own libavcodec Makefile module
and link order does not guarantee a single .o owns the ctx symbol;
one extra ~µs init per process, paid lazily on first MC call).

Other H.264 luma MC variants (mc02, mc11, mc22 etc.) and the 16x16
size tier stay on the in-tree NEON .S code per the cycle-9 phase-1
rationale (mc20 8x8 is representative; remaining variants would
multiply recipe-lookup overhead without changing the substrate
verdict).

Bit-exact against ff_put_h264_qpel8_mc20_neon (daedalus-fourier
cycle 9 green; 10000/10000 random blocks bit-exact, M3 = 131 Mblock/s).

No SONAME change, no Depends change.  PKGREL 9 → 10.
