File > Import > EffectCraft Project (and .ecproj/.ecprojx given to File > Import)
merges the project into a folder named after the file, with every id shifted past
the open project's, in one undo step. Relative footage resolves next to the file;
the result lists comps, root comps, primaryComp and missing media.
offset_ids now shifts tracker Motion Targets and saturates instead of overflowing;
fix_next_id saturates too, so a damaged file can't overflow on open or import.
Menu entry translated in all ten menu catalogues.
Rebased onto current upstream main for the split of #858 (test module list in
engine lib.rs; es/pt-br/ru/fr/de/cs menu translations).

3eb3b99 makes the particles replace their layer as in AE, so their 112 pinned
CPU hashes change intentionally; no other effect changed.

(cherry picked from commit f07497dfee)
Echo, Posterize Time and the other Time effects read the layer at other times with none of
its effects. After Effects renders them with the effects before them: SceneYard "Task
Preparation UI" applies Echo after CC Particle Systems II on black solids, and AE shows the
echoed fireworks over a white page where we echoed the black solids and blacked it out
(Posterize Time after Turbulent Displace, the usual stop-motion setup, depends on the same).
The host already bounds the count to the effects before the one rendering.
Mean abs error vs AE: Task Preparation UI 0.1855 -> 0.0071, Lightbulb Idea 0.0126 -> 0.0102;
the 15 other corpus projects with a Time effect after another effect are pixel-identical.

The particles were composited with the original layer by the Transfer Mode, so the solid an
artist applies them to stayed visible. After Effects 2026 frames show no trace of it:
SceneYard "Burnout matchstick" (a red rectangle around the flame), "Documentary Man Falling"
(a black block over the light), "Task Preparation UI" (black solids under fireworks). The
Transfer Mode now only sets how the particles meet each other.
Mean abs error vs AE: Burnout matchstick 0.0191 -> 0.0130, Documentary Man Falling
0.1177 -> 0.0937 (Task Preparation also needs the next commit).
