feat(videos): add manual Convert button per MOV file on Pi

- New POST /api/local-video/convert route triggers queue_convert(force=True)
- queue_convert() now returns True/False/None and accepts force param
  to bypass the auto-convert toggle (manual always works)
- Convert button shown for non-MP4, non-converting files in video list
- Clicking spins the button and refreshes list after 1s to show badge
