Add overflow handling: keep ordered content whole instead of rotating a window
The width budget split any oversized plugin by advancing a window each cycle.
That is right for interchangeable items — news headlines, odds, stock prices —
but wrong for ordered content: a league table showed ranks 1-6, then resumed at
7 two rotations later, which reads as out of order and out of context. Nobody
needs rank 23 in a ticker; they need the top of the table, every time.
overflow_mode chooses between them:
rotate — advance a window each cycle so everything is seen eventually
(unchanged default)
truncate — always show the start and drop the rest, keeping ordered content
coherent. Records no window state, so every pass starts at the top.
Per-plugin vegas_overflow overrides the global setting, since one install has
both kinds of plugin. Also adds per-plugin vegas_max_width_screens, so content
that must stay whole can be given more room — or uncapped with 0 — without
lifting the cap on every ticker.
Applied on the test rig: f1-scoreboard and ledmatrix-leaderboard set to
truncate, and baseball given 4.5 screens because it was showing 8 of 9 games
when the whole slate needed only a little more room. Verified: F1 now reports
"the first 10 of 116 ... the rest are not shown", baseball has dropped out of
the budget log entirely, and stocks, odds-ticker and stock-news still rotate.
Also corrects the crop log, which claimed "window advances next cycle"
unconditionally and so misreported truncated crops. A test now pins the
behaviour behind the message: truncate must leave no offset recorded.
