Cleanup pass after the latency investigation concluded: - state_portal.rs: remove TODO(#19) comment block (17 lines). The Option A upgrade path was tentatively documented during the #19 fix, but the user decided to accept current latency behavior. The TODO is now noise. - state.rs:605: remove 'let _fps = self.args.fps as i64;' dead binding left over from #25 time_base change. The variable became unused when PTS formula switched from fps-multiplier to literal 90_000, and was renamed to _fps to silence the warning. Removing it entirely is cleaner. No behavior change. Build clean (0 new warnings). All 96+96+3 tests pass.
