feat: implement DVB subtitle splitting (--split-dvb-subs)

Add --split-dvb-subs option to extract DVB subtitles from multi-stream
files into separate output files, with one file per language/PID.

Features:
- Automatic DVB stream detection and splitting
- Ring buffer deduplication to prevent repeated subtitles
- Multi-pipeline support for individual stream processing
- Post-EOF DVB packet handling for complete extraction
- Language-based output file naming (e.g., output_deu.srt)
- --no-dvb-dedup option to disable deduplication if needed
