ske087 12f2880201 Rewrite CEF browser as child of Kivy window (v2)
v1 created a separate Win32 window — same problem as external Chrome.
v2 creates CEF as a CHILD WINDOW of Kivy's SDL_app window:
  - No separate taskbar entry
  - No z-order fighting (CEF is INSIDE Kivy)
  - No desktop flash
  - CEF message loop pumped via Kivy Clock (main thread)
  - Resize handler attached so CEF follows Kivy window changes
  - build.spec includes cef_browser in hidden imports
