f0765012fa fix(playback): stop external player position polling that starts after exit (#1720)
MPV and VLC wait 2 s and 1.5 s before their first position poll, but the
delay timer was never stored, so stopping the poll during that wait could
not cancel it. A player that exited, errored or was replaced early left a
5 s (MPV) or 2 s (VLC) interval polling a dead socket or RC port until the
next launch or app quit. Keep the delay handle and clear it with the
interval.

Closing MPV or VLC within the first seconds of playback no longer leaves the
app checking the closed player's position in the background until it quits.
