Cause: quantize_px rounded with `(v + 0.5) as u32 as f32`. Converting back
from u32 is several instructions in V8's wasm code on x86 (no unsigned
conversion), so quantising a 1080p layer took about 15 ms in the browser:
every 8/16 bpc layer is quantised after its source and every effect, and
the CPU compositor quantises the comp after every layer.
Fix: round_half_up uses floor in wasm (one instruction there) and keeps the
integer conversion elsewhere (x86-64's baseline has no floor instruction,
where floor is slower). The values are the same: both round non-negative
values half up. About 1.5x faster quantising in the browser (15 -> 10 ms
per 1080p layer in a wasm micro-benchmark), unchanged on the desktop.
Tests: color::tests::rounding_forms_agree: both forms agree on 0..=levels
in sixteenths (exact halves included) and on 100 001 products, at 8 and
16 bpc.

Cause: at Half, Third and Quarter resolution (the viewer's Auto resolution
in most windows) every movie frame was converted from Y'CbCr to f32 RGBA at
full size and then resampled down. In the browser (wasm, one thread) that
was about 8 ms converting a 1080p frame, 6 ms resampling it and 2 ms
zeroing a 33 MB buffer, per layer and frame, for a frame shown at a
quarter or a ninth of its pixels; the footage frame cache held the
full-size frames.
Fix: FootageSource::frame_at_size asks for a frame shown at a given size
(default: the full frame, as before). The renderer asks for it where it
resampled footage (below 3/4 scale; not for proxies, fields or Interpret
Footage's pixel options, which need the full frame). MediaPool makes opaque
4:2:0 movie frames of the footage's own size there: it box-filters them to
half size in Y'CbCr before converting (each 2x2 block of luma, and the
[1 6 1]/8 neighbourhood of its chroma sample, which is the mean of the
upsampled chroma its pixels get), resamples the rest of the way and caches
the result per size. Conversion is linear until colours clip, so this is
the RGB box filter resample starts with, except in blocks where some
colours clip. Other frames convert at full size and resample as before.
In the browser the conversion and resampling take about 4 ms instead of
16. Docs (architecture).
Tests:
- convert::scaled_conversion_matches_resampling_the_converted_frame: half,
third, quarter and odd sizes of an unclipped 4:2:0 frame are within 1e-5
of resampling the converted frame; larger sizes, odd frame sizes and
4:4:4 convert at full size.
- tests_footage_size::reduced_renders_take_footage_resampled_by_the_source:
a source that resamples frames itself renders the same frames as one
that doesn't, at 8 and 32 bpc and every resolution, and is asked only
below 3/4 scale, and not with Invert Alpha.
- footage::h264_frames_at_reduced_sizes (ffmpeg fixture): 1080p H.264
testsrc2 frames, whose saturated colours clip, at 960x540, 640x360,
480x270 and 323x182 are 58-62 dB from the resampled full frames, and
are cached per size.
- convert's ignored 1080p bench also times the conversion at a third.

Cause: the browser build kept the desktop's cache budgets (1 GB layer
cache, 1 GB footage frame cache) inside the page's memory, which wasm32
caps at 4 GiB. FilmCraft's decoders keep up to 384 MB of decoded frames
per open movie beside them, so a comp of eight stacked 1080p H.264 clips
grew the page by about 55 MB/s while playing and ran it out of memory
after about 50 s ("unreachable": a failed allocation).
Fix: in the browser Prefs::cache_budgets keeps the Layer Cache within
512 MB and the Footage Frame Cache within 256 MB (WEB_LAYER_CACHE,
WEB_MEDIA_CACHE); smaller settings and the desktop are unchanged, and
the RAM preview keeps its budget. Docs (web, preferences) say so.
Tests: tests_m145::web_cache_budgets_leave_room_for_the_decoders: with
4 GB settings the web budgets are the caps, the desktop's are the
settings, and smaller settings stay as they are.
