[Bug]: MP4 export cannot be cancelled — Cancel is disabled while rendering #1014

Description

@EtienneLescot

What happens

During an MP4 export the dialog's Cancel button is greyed out and does nothing; three real clicks between 13 % and 62 % progress were ignored and the export ran to completion. GIF export's Cancel works (returns to the options, leaves no partial file).

Expected

MP4 export can be cancelled mid-render like GIF export (checklist "Export progress and speed-region audio", line 578; "Export", line 559).

Steps

  1. Open a project, Export → MP4 (720p/24 here).
  2. Save, then click Cancel while "Exporting your video" advances.

Environment

v2.0.0 (DMG), macOS 27.0, Mac mini M1 (native compositor export). Main-process thread count returned to baseline after the export finished.
