* recreate review thumbnail directory before writing and log write failures

cleanup's remove_empty_directories() can rmdir an empty clips/review, after which thumbnail writes silently fail. Ensure the directory exists before both cv2.imwrite calls and check their return value

* add docs for add camera wizard

* Handle indefinite events when a segment needs to forcibly be ended for a ceamera

* update keyframe interval article link

- Video codec: **H.264** - provides the most compatible video codec with all Live view technologies and browsers. Avoid any kind of "smart codec" or "+" codec like _H.264+_ or _H.265+_. as these non-standard codecs remove keyframes (see below).
- Audio codec: **AAC** - provides the most compatible audio codec with all Live view technologies and browsers that support audio.
- I-frame interval (sometimes called the keyframe interval, the interframe space, or the GOP length): match your camera's frame rate, or choose "1x" (for interframe space on Reolink cameras). For example, if your stream outputs 20fps, your i-frame interval should be 20 (or 1x on Reolink). Values higher than the frame rate will cause the stream to take longer to begin playback. See [this page](https://gardinal.net/understanding-the-keyframe-interval/) for more on keyframes. For many users this may not be an issue, but it should be noted that a 1x i-frame interval will cause more storage utilization if you are using the stream for the `record` role as well.

The default video and audio codec on your camera may not always be compatible with your browser, which is why setting them to H.264 and AAC is recommended. See the [go2rtc docs](https://github.com/AlexxIT/go2rtc?tab=readme-ov-file#codecs-madness) for codec support information.
