The recorder only read /dev/hidraw, so it could not run on a Mac. It now
also reads through IOKit via ctypes, using the calls hidapi's mac backend
makes: a shared open (as #1028 does) and the input report callback.
hidapi passes those bytes through unchanged, so a recording is exactly
what QET decodes on macOS. Standard library only, and no sudo.
If 3DxWare holds the device, or Input Monitoring is not granted, it says
which instead of recording nothing. The JSON adds "backend" and
"other_readers" (any 3DxWare or spacenavd process that was running).
Reports that queue up while it waits for Enter are now dropped, so each
step holds only its own movement. The Linux path is otherwise unchanged.
Tested: the Linux path against the virtual uhid device
(tools/hid-capture/fake-spacemouse.py in the docker harness). A stale
report was dropped and the step's own push was kept. The macOS path has
only been run against a mocked IOKit, not on a Mac.

The SpacePilot PRO recording on #599 has a weak `right` step: pushed
too lightly to read above the cap's normal cross-axis noise. A longer
window makes it easier to hold a firm push and gives the decoder more
samples to average over.

For device owners on Linux: guided movements, with every raw report and
the device's report descriptor saved to one JSON file. Dropped into
tests/qttest/fixtures/spacemouse/, a recording is checked by
tst_spacemousehid against what the user was asked to do.
