📄 Description

Fix Issue 924

The main thread was exiting prematurely, killing all spawned threads (UI, event handler, player watcher, etc.).

On Linux with media-control enabled, add a polling loop since there is no winit event loop to block the main thread (unlike macOS/Windows).
Without the media-control feature, add a polling loop for non-daemon mode to prevent the process from terminating while the UI is running.
