test: add CEA-708 aspect ratio positioning tests
Add test suite for CEA-708 closed caption aspect ratio awareness and
positioning accuracy. These tests demonstrate current positioning issues
that will be fixed in subsequent commits.
Tests validate:
- Display aspect ratio calculation for grid selection per CEA-708 Section 8.2
- Positioning coordinate accuracy based on CEA-708 Section 8.2.4
- Integration with different video formats (4:3, 16:9, anamorphic)
- Current positioning limitations with hardcoded 16:9 grid usage
The CEA-708-E specification Section 8.2 defines grid coordinates for
positioning with 160×75 cells for 4:3 systems and 210×75 cells for
16:9 systems. These tests will initially expose positioning issues
until aspect ratio awareness is implemented.

substext: add UPDT_REGION_USES_16_9_GRID flag for aspect ratio aware rendering
Add new flag to support dynamic aspect ratio selection in subtitle rendering.
This flag allows subtitle regions to specify whether they should use 16:9
or 4:3 sample aspect ratio (SAR) for grid-based coordinate systems.
Changes:
- Add UPDT_REGION_USES_16_9_GRID flag definition (bit 6)
- Update SAR selection logic to handle 16:9 (16:9 SAR) vs 4:3 (4:3 SAR) grids
- Maintains backward compatibility with existing UPDT_REGION_USES_GRID_COORDINATES
This prepares the subtitle rendering system for CEA-708 aspect ratio aware
positioning per CEA-708-E Section 8.2 screen coordinate specifications.

codec: cea708: Add aspect ratio aware positioning
Implement dynamic aspect ratio aware positioning for CEA-708 closed captions
based on source video display aspect ratio (DAR) per CEA-708-E Section 8.2
screen coordinate specifications.
Key changes:
- Dynamic grid selection: 160×75 (4:3) vs 210×75 (16:9) based on DAR threshold
- DAR calculation: width×sar_num / (height×sar_den) with 5:3 threshold
- Improved relative positioning with proper anchor point handling
- Enhanced center anchor positioning within middle 50% of screen
- Screen coordinate flags for proper SAR selection in subtitle rendering
Implementation details:
- Uses CEA708_SCREEN_COLS_43 (160) for DAR < 5:3 (4:3 content)
- Uses CEA708_SCREEN_COLS_169 (210) for DAR >= 5:3 (16:9+ content)
- Sets UPDT_REGION_USES_16_9_GRID flag for 16:9 grid selection
- Fallback to 16:9 grid for invalid/missing video dimensions
- Improved relative positioning constants (CEA708_REL_POS_MAX = 99.0)
- Enhanced center anchor logic with 25%-75% positioning range
This addresses CEA-708 specification compliance for positioning accuracy
on different video aspect ratios and resolves caption misalignment issues
on widescreen content.
Test improvements:
- Corrected specification references to use accurate CEA-708-E Section 8.2
- Updated terminology from "grid coordinates" to "screen coordinates"
- Removed invalid subsection references (8.2.1, 8.2.2, 8.2.4)
- Fixed test comments to properly reference the specification

codec: cea708: fix relative anchor percentage divisor
anchor_horizontal/anchor_vertical are percentages (0-99) per
CEA-708-E Section 8.4. Dividing by 99 mapped 99% onto the full screen
edge; use 100.0f so 99 maps to 0.99.

codec: cea708: pass video_format_t to CEA708SpuConvert
The helper only needs the output video format for DAR-based grid
selection; there is no reason to hand it the full decoder_t.
