The command also supports the audio and video containers listed in

As with the generic `metadata` command, a quiet check or a successful strip is
not a clean verdict: video SynthID is not decoded locally after the metadata
proxy is gone.
Supported containers are MP4, MOV, M4V, WebM, MKV, AVI, and FLV. The operation
delegates to the same verified metadata scanner and stripper as the generic
`metadata` command, so detection and removal stay in parity. Video and audio
