## Description
Next step would be having full DE environment variant I guess? I'll see
later if it's doable in this PR or if I'll do separate one for keeping
things small and manageable for once 😅
- Added easily doable variants for runners, with simple CI build matrix.
- Added playsite in CI builds finally.
- Some CI formatting and naming fixes.
- Removed PR full runner builds as they kept failing due to lack of disk
space on GH runner.

## Description
### First commit
Restructured protobuf schemas to make them easier to use across
languages, switched to using them in-place of JSON for signaling as
well, so there's no 2 different message formats flying about. Few new
message types to deal with clients and nestri-servers better (not final
format, may see changes still).
General cleanup of dead/unused code along some bug squashing and package
updates.
TODO for future commits:
- [x] Fix additional controllers not doing inputs (possibly needs
vimputti changes)
- [x] ~~Restructure relay protocols code a bit, to reduce bloatiness of
the currently single file for them, more code re-use.~~
- Gonna keep this PR somewhat manageable without poking more at relay..
- [x] ~~Try to fix issue where with multiple clients, static stream
content causes video to freeze until there's some movement.~~
- Was caused by server tuned profile being `throughput-performance`,
causing CPU latency to be too high.
- [x] Ponder the orb
### Second + third commit
Redid the controller polling handling and fixed multi-controller
handling in vimputti and nestri code sides. Remove some dead relay code
as well to clean up the protocol source file, we'll revisit the meshing
functionality later.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Added software rendering option and MangoHud runtime config;
controller sessions now support reconnection and batched state updates
with persistent session IDs.
* **Bug Fixes**
* Restored previously-filtered NES-like gamepads so they connect
correctly.
* **Chores**
* Modernized dependencies and protobuf tooling, migrated to
protobuf-based messaging and streaming, and removed obsolete CUDA build
steps.

## Description
Oops.. another massive PR 🥲
This PR contains multiple improvements and changes.
Firstly, thanks gst-wayland-display's PR
[here](https://github.com/games-on-whales/gst-wayland-display/pull/20).
NVIDIA path is now way more efficient than before.
Secondly, adding controller support was a massive hurdle, requiring me
to start another project
[vimputti](https://github.com/DatCaptainHorse/vimputti) - which allows
simple virtual controller inputs in isolated containers. Well, it's not
simple, it includes LD_PRELOAD shims and other craziness, but the
library API is simple to use..
Thirdly, split runner image into 3 separate stages, base + build +
runtime, should help keep things in check in future, also added GitHub
Actions CI builds for v2 to v4 builds (hopefully they pass..).
Fourth, replaced the runner's runtime Steam patching with better and
simpler bubblewrap patch, massive thanks to `games-on-whales` to
figuring it out better!
Fifth, relay for once needed some changes, the new changes are still
mostly WIP, but I'll deal with them next time I have energy.. I'm spent
now. Needed to include these changes as relay needed a minor change to
allow rumble events to flow back to client peer.
Sixth.. tons of package updates, minor code improvements and the usual.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* End-to-end gamepad/controller support (attach/detach, buttons, sticks,
triggers, rumble) with client/server integration and virtual controller
plumbing.
* Optional Prometheus metrics endpoint and WebTransport support.
* Background vimputti manager process added for controller handling.
* **Improvements**
* Multi-variant container image builds and streamlined runtime images.
* Zero-copy video pipeline and encoder improvements for lower latency.
* Updated Steam compat mapping and dependency/toolchain refreshes.
* **Bug Fixes**
* More robust GPU detection, input/fullscreen lifecycle,
startup/entrypoint, and container runtime fixes.

## Description
Adds PEER_URL env variable for setting peer URL (query param still takes
priority if set).
- Useful for self-hosters
- Was a pain to figure out
<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai
-->
## Summary by CodeRabbit
- New Features
- Support configuring the peer server URL via an environment variable,
with automatic fallback to the URL parameter or a default.
- Server-provided configuration is securely passed to the client to
simplify deployment setup.
- Chores
- Excluded common build artifacts and IDE directories from container
contexts to reduce image size and speed up builds.

## Description
Works in apptainer now.. podman is still the goat since apptainer needs
docker treatment and even more..
- Added container detection so podman can be used to it's fullest, the
non-sane ones are handled separately..
- Added video bit-depth option, cuz AV1 and 10-bit encoding go well
together.
- Some other package updates to nestri-server.
- General tidying up of scripts to make multi-container-engine handling
less of a pain.
- Updated old wireplumber lua script to new json format.
Further changes:
- Removed unused debug arg from nestri-server.
- Moved configs to config file folder rather than keeping them in
containerfile.
- Improved audio configs, moved some into wireplumber to keep things
tidy.
- Bit better arg handling in nestri-server.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Optional 10‑bit video support and auto‑launch of an app after display
setup.
* **Changes**
* Standardized runtime/user env to NESTRI_* with updated home/cache
paths and explicit LANG; password generation now logged.
* Improved container/GPU detection and startup logging; reduced blanket
root usage during startup; SSH setup surfaced.
* WirePlumber/PipeWire moved to JSON configs; low‑latency clock and
loopback audio policies added; audio capture defaults to PipeWire.
* **Chores**
* GStreamer/libp2p dependency upgrades and Rust toolchain pinned; NVIDIA
driver capability exposed.

Adds a basic standalone "play site" that mimics current one in apps/www.
This is so self-hosters don't need to host whole site, but can just use
small version of it.
Yet to test so marking as draft, not at home currently so may take some
time. Also might be good idea to make Caddy-powered container out of
this later?
<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai

- New Features
- Introduces a standalone Play site with server output, accessible on
0.0.0.0:3000.
- Streams video via WebRTC into a canvas with continuous frame
rendering.
- Fullscreen and pointer lock support with optional keyboard lock for
navigation keys.
- Room-based routing with offline and loading states.
- Responsive 16:9 canvas and improved default layout styling.
- Chores
- Adds a multi-stage container build for efficient runtime images and a
lightweight init process.
- Includes configuration and project setup for the standalone package.
