Setting up Synchronize Folder, an import review or an import made a table
of every photo in the library on the session's thread before the first
file was looked at, and naming one photo's sidecar worked out who owns
every shared sidecar name in the library. In a library of 3.5 million
photos (`scan_setup_bench`, release, a folder of 500): 5.8 s before a
Synchronize scan, 2.6 s before an import review, 1.7 s before an import,
2.4 s for each sidecar written.
- A scan keeps the library as it is (photos are shared, not copied) and
looks up the files it finds (`library_files`) and the contents it probes
(`library_hashes`) on its own thread.
- An import looks the library up with its first files
(`ImportJob::look_up_library`), from the library and the options as they
were when it was set up.
- The owners of shared sidecar names are worked out for the photos asked
about (`StemOwners::among`): all five callers name only those photos.
- Synchronize Folder names its photos' sidecars in the scan, after it has
seen that the folder is there.
Now 0.9 s, 0.05 s, 0.05 s and under 1 s. What is found, and how sidecars
are named, is unchanged: the tests hold the owners against the table of
the whole library as it was made before, and the key made without
allocating against the key, for every string of up to six of the
characters that decide it.

`embedded_preview_srgb` (the loupe stand-in and the grid thumbnail of an unedited raw) decoded the
largest embedded JPEG whatever the size asked for: a 512 px thumbnail of a Sony A7R VI ARW decoded
its 9984 x 6656 JPEG (5.6 MB) although the file holds a 1616 x 1080 one (0.3 MB).
`lightcraft_raw::embedded_preview_covering(bytes, min_edge)` returns the smallest of a TIFF-based
raw's JPEGs whose long edge is at least `min_edge` and that is a copy of the largest one: aspect
ratio within 1 % (not a letterboxed thumbnail of another shape) and the same number of components
(not the grey semantic masks of an iPhone ProRAW DNG); else the largest, as `embedded_preview`.
The colour-space handling stays in `decode_raw_preview` (a `covering` argument); an unsupported
raw's editing source and the camera-look fit keep the largest JPEG, so a source never depends on
its size level.
On 120 raws of every make in the corpus at 256 / 512 / 1600 px: wherever the largest JPEG is still
chosen the output is identical byte for byte; where a smaller one is (Sony, Nikon, Panasonic,
Adobe DNG) orientation matches, the size is equal or 1-2 px off, mean difference <= 4.7 / 255.
- Rebased onto #1020: its plan route (`preview_window` -> `planned_preview`) now takes the box size and picks
with `embedded_preview_covering` too, so a TIFF raw read through the sparse plan gets the whole file's JPEG.

`fit` to the source's own size copies the whole picture (`resize` returns a clone). The raw path
called it unconditionally, so every full-size decode (an export, and its denoised twin) made a
second float RGB buffer: 288 MB and 160 ms at 24 MP, ~390 MB and 225 ms at 33 MP. The JPEG and
preview paths in the same file already fit only when the picture is larger than `max_edge`.

The grid queues no render behind an unedited raw's quick thumbnail, since the embedded JPEG is
meant to be the thumbnail. But whether that JPEG can be read is only known when the quick job
runs, and `quick_thumb_job` had no fallback: when the preview loader returned nothing the job
failed with "no quick preview", the failure was remembered for that key, and the cell stayed
empty until an edit changed it. The quick job now carries the real thumbnail job as its last
resort, as `quick_view_job` already does for the loupe.
An unedited raw's face tile is cut from its largest embedded preview, read
the planned way (header and JPEG, never the sensor data), when the preview
holds at least 3/4 of the tile's pixels across the face; otherwise, and for
edited photos and other files, it is developed as before. Tiles keep going
to the memory + on-disk thumbnail cache, now at 16 px size steps so the
thumbnail slider reuses them. The planned preview path carries an Adobe RGB
preview colour space and applies it instead of declining to the whole-file
read (Sony alpha 1 previews).
As in PhotoCraft: when portable.txt (or LightCraft.portable) sits next to the
executable, config_dir() is <exe dir>/LightCraftData, so settings, logs and
models stay with a portable copy instead of %APPDATA%. LIGHTCRAFT_CONFIG_DIR
still wins and is used without probing beside the executable. A portable
folder that can't be written logs a warning and the platform folder is used.
The check runs once per process.
