Apply digital feedback glitch effect (requires Node.js + GPU).

Iterative frame feedback with scale/rotation transform. Each frame blends with a scaled+rotated version of the previous output, creating ghostly trails and recursive visual patterns.

Args: input_path: Absolute path to input video. output_path: Absolute path for output video. feedback_mix: Blend between current and feedback (0-1). Default 0.5. scale: UV scale for previous frame. Default 1.0. rotation: Rotation in degrees. Default 0.0. decay: Ghost trail opacity (0-1). Default 0.9.

Returns: Dict with success status and output_path.
