For a POC I commented out the fd stuff so it wouldn't fail on me and
replaced pw_context_connect_fd() with pw_context_connect() and it
seemed to work fine with gamescope, gamescope only produces RGB frames
and not YUV frames however. I did try my camera and it did not seem to
work, which is more or less what I had expected.

perhaps a couple simple if statements would be good enough and adding
YUV formats?

also Looking at it, it seems like this only supports 8bit formats?
Though it didn't make my capture fail despite my monitor running in
10bit so perhaps pipewire can handle that itself?
