never thought I'd see an IIFE in Rust.

Copied the plugin into a random project and configured it. Works as expected.

Easy screenrecording plugin (bevyengine#21237)

# Objective

- Followup on bevyengine#21235
- See
mockersf/bevy@easy-screenshots...mockersf:bevy:easy-screenrecording
for what's new
- Be able to record videos from Bevy in a consistent manner

## Solution

- Make a new `EasyScreenRecordPlugin` in the dev tools

## Testing

- Add to any example
```
        .add_plugins(bevy::dev_tools::EasyScreenRecordPlugin::default())
```
- Run the example with the feature `bevy_internal/screenrecording`
enabled
- press the space bar
- wait for it...
- press the space bar again
- screen recording! 🎉 
- almost... you now have a h264 file. VLC can read them, but they are
not the most friendly format
- `ffmpeg` is our friend! `for file in *.h264; do ffmpeg -i $file
$file.mp4; done`
- you now have a .mp4 file that can be shared anywhere!
