The CRX 0x200 QP map opens with its first symbol as a 32-bit literal; every
later symbol is Rice coded with a limited-length escape: 23 zeros, the
terminating 1 and the symbol in 8 bits (the ITU-T T.87 layout for a 32-bit
limit and 8-bit symbols, without its minus-one offset). The old rule (an
escape after 16 zeros with a 16-bit literal) matched only the first symbol,
which is all the R8 and R7 maps need. R5 Mark II maps (QP 150-162) jump by up
to 12 where the Rice parameter is 0, giving 18- to 22-zero prefixes that
misparsed ("Canon CRX adaptive QP value -21087"): 174 of 306 sampled files
from a private R5 Mark II library opened as previews. Every QP map of its
33,665 C-RAW files now decodes to the exact end of its entropy stream; the six
oracle fixtures are unchanged. Established by black-box analysis of the
bitstream; no third-party decoder source consulted.
Adds the four CC0 R5 Mark II samples (raw.pixls.us 7881-7884) to the corpus
with pinned sensor hashes (the crop-mode framing is left to #754), bumps
RENDER_CACHE_VERSION to 43, and updates cr3.md, raw-parity (235 verified
models), coverage, gaps, the checklist rows, ROADMAP, target-app-parity and
What's New.
