Filter Plugin - Version [1.0.0]

A text filter that turns a short code into a playable FastPix
video anywhere Moodle lets you type rich text.

Embed videos with a short code. Type {fastpix:pb_<playback_id>} in a
forum post, Page, Book, assignment description, quiz question, label, or
course summary, and it becomes a working video player.
Embed any public video, from any workspace. You can embed a public video
by its playback id even if it isn't in this site's FastPix library — it can
live in any FastPix org or workspace. Public playback needs no token, so the
filter renders a tokenless player straight from the id and the browser plays
the stream. The server still makes no FastPix network call.
A clean, branded player. Videos in this site's library play with your
accent colour and the video title, matching the look of the FastPix activity.
Helpful messages instead of broken players. For a video in this site's
library that can't be embedded, the viewer sees a clear note explaining why:
- a known public video still processing → "This video is unavailable."
- DRM-protected → "…cannot be played in an embed. Open it in its FastPix
  activity to watch."
- private → "This video is private and can only be watched in its FastPix
  activity…"
Fast page loads. The video player loads in the background, so pages with
embeds open quickly.
No personal data stored. The filter keeps nothing about who watched what.
Tested. Comes with automated tests covering the main cases.

Only people allowed to view the video can see it. Anyone without
permission just sees the plain short code text — never the video.
Only public videos are embedded. Private and DRM videos are never shown
here; a known private/DRM video points the viewer to the FastPix activity, and
a foreign private/DRM id simply fails to play in the browser. No playback token
is ever minted for a video the filter can't verify, so nothing leaks.
No watch tracking. Embeds are for casual viewing — nothing is recorded
and nothing is sent to the gradebook.
