Adds a `load_distribution` service config that controls how the affinity scorer routes egress jobs across server instances: - "consolidate" (default, unchanged behavior): packs jobs onto already busy servers, keeping idle servers free for heavier egress types (room composite, web). - "spread": routes each job to the server with the most available CPU, distributing load evenly. Recommended for track-only deployments. The spread strategy uses a new Monitor.AvailableCPURatio() as the affinity score, so the server with the most headroom wins each selection round. Defaults to "consolidate" when unset.

What
Adds a
load_distributionservice config that controls howStartEgressAffinityroutes jobs across server instances.Why
The current affinity scorer always consolidates: idle servers return a lower score so jobs pack onto already-busy instances, keeping idle servers free for heavier egress types (room composite, web). That is ideal for mixed deployments, but for track-only fleets it concentrates load and leaves headroom stranded.
How
consolidate(default): unchanged behavior — packs jobs onto busy servers.spread: returns a newMonitor.AvailableCPURatio()as the affinity score, so the server with the most available CPU wins each selection round and load is distributed evenly.AvailableCPURatio()reuses the existinggetCPUUsageLocked()accounting and is clamped to[0, 1]. Defaults toconsolidatewhen unset, so existing deployments are unaffected.Notes
gofmtclean. Verified compilation and interface satisfaction locally; I couldn't run the GStreamer-dependent integration suite in my environment, so a CI run is appreciated.
