Disables video recording in the management Cypress suite (cypress_base.config.ts). Videos were previously recorded and then deleted for passing specs via getVideosForFailedSpecs, but the recording itself still caused disk writes during the run — contributing to CI disk pressure observed in the vagrant-cluster test environments.

Setting video: false avoids the disk I/O entirely. The getVideosForFailedSpecs helper is already guarded against this (if (results && results.video)) so it becomes a clean no-op.
