viewer: default mpv to --hwdec=auto

Software H.264 decode at 1080p struggled on a low-power viewer (Intel UHD 620 laptop on battery / power-save governor), surfacing as choppy motion and A-V drift even though the host encode side was clean. mpv's auto hwdec picks vaapi/nvdec/etc. when available and silently falls back to software when not, so the default is strictly safer. Applied to both the headless banner recipe and the interactive player-picker spawn args.
