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.

Add the Cmd+Shift+D row to the library shortcut table with a short note on
what it does and where it can be rebound, add a checklist row for it with
status partial (covered by headless key tests; the native macOS menu path
is not verified), and update the checklist's Last updated line, revision
history and the summary counts that this one row changes.
`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.

A windowed render dehazes with the whole frame's airlight, estimated on a 384 px proxy of the frame
(`local::frame_airlight`). Every window asked for that proxy again, so every pan of a 1:1 view and every
slider step while zoomed sampled the whole original down to it on the CPU: ~200 ms of CPU on a 64 MP raw.
The proxy (taken before white balance) is now kept for the last 4 (source fingerprint, frame, size); white
balance, the dark channel and the percentile still run on it every time. Same pixels: the GPU window of
`render_bench` is byte-identical.
`optics::fingerprint` indexed the first pixel of an empty image; it now hashes only the dimensions then.
render_bench ONLY=window GPU_ONLY=1 on a 64 MP Sony ILCE-7RM6 raw (RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, 4-CPU quota), CPU time:
pan 208-212 -> 9-11 ms, exposure change 200-204 -> 4 ms, NR change 211-217 -> 13 ms.

In Compare a filmstrip click goes to `compare.set` (#747), so the grid's
modifier clicks never reached `library.select` and multi-select from the
filmstrip was impossible there (#187 follow-up). A ⌘/Ctrl-click now toggles
the photo and a Shift-click extends from the active photo, as in the grid;
the two photos shown stay selected and the active photo is unchanged, so a
rating key still acts on a photo that is on screen. A plain click still
replaces the active side.

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.
Four CC0 EOS RP samples from raw.pixls.us (lossless RAW and C-RAW, full
frame and 1.6x crop mode) now have exact full-sensor regressions against
the DNGLab 0.8.0 black-box oracle (Windows binary, checked first against
the documented M50 RAW hash). The decoder already matched; no decoder
change was needed. Crop mode is a single 4032x2656 tile, full frame two
3192-wide tiles.
docs/cr3.md also records that the white level is Canon's specular white,
which at the -1/3-stop ISOs (e.g. 11062 at ISO 5000) is well below the
sensor's saturation point.

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.

Open the configured SAM directory itself and preserve the pending mask
action and existing files when folder creation or the opener fails.
Run the Linux desktop opener in a background task and deliver failures
to the UI for retry. Directory creation remains synchronous.
Cover configured paths, creation and opener failures, retry state and
worker completion.
Partially addresses #366; model download hosting remains unresolved.
