arhammusheerandClaude Opus 5.5 0724aafbb6 #1172: share an object's appearance with its undo history until it changes ...

Every edit of an object copied its whole appearance (its fills, strokes and effects, about
540 bytes for a basic object) into the new node, though a move leaves it as it is. Over 45
whole-selection moves of 10,000 paths, undo history grew by 589 MB; now 349 MB (41 % less), and
a nudge or a drag of the selection takes 12 ms instead of 15.

- Node::appearance is a vectorcraft_doc::Shared<Appearance>: copy-on-write. A clone shares it,
  and the first change through DerefMut copies it (Arc::make_mut). Reads, writes, equality (also
  against a plain Appearance) and the saved form are those of the Appearance itself, so call
  sites read and change it as before. Sites that build or assign a whole appearance add .into(),
  and the few that need a plain copy take (*n.appearance).clone().
- Node::transform changes the appearance only when it has gradients to transform, and pattern
  paints are transformed only when there are some: a move no longer copies an appearance it
  doesn't change.

The workspace suite (5,301 tests) and clippy pass with the change; the doc and engine suites
pass again after the transform guard.

Cargo.toml

Rename DrawCraft → VectorCraft: crates (vectorcraft-*), apps, binaries, types, env vars, docs, examples (.vectorcraft); old .drawcraft files and preferences still load. Fix: text bounds exact after opening a file; selection no longer marks a document modified (dirty = content differs from the saved document). Screenshots and renders regenerated.
