The receiver does not need the sender's PipeWire/xdg-desktop-portal
capture stack, which small ARM boards neither have nor want. Add a
-Dsender=false meson option that skips the capture backend and the
sender pipeline (SC_HAS_SENDER guards in main.cpp/pipelines.cpp);
receiver-only builds refuse --send with a clear message while
--receive and --discover work unchanged.
scripts/install-receiver.sh targets such boards (e.g. Raspberry Pi
Zero 2 W): installs build and runtime dependencies via apt, checks the
compiler for C++20 <format> support before the long build (GCC 13+,
i.e. Raspberry Pi OS Trixie), builds SDL3 from source when the distro
does not package it, compiles a receiver-only binary, runs the test
suite, installs to /usr/local/bin, and enables avahi-daemon.
Also refresh the stale README (phases, dependencies, current
roadmap, Pi receiver section).
Validated in both configurations: meson test 5/5 each; the
receiver-only build has no PipeWire/portal references, refuses --send
cleanly, and --discover works headlessly.
Add FFmpeg-based encoder/decoder with SPS/PPS extradata, Annex-B output
normalization, low-latency libx264 settings, and a round-trip unit test.
Includes review hardening: cached SwsContext, bitrate-only rate control,
std::byte/uin8_t cast helpers, and richer test assertions.
