Subject: [PATCH 01/13] #1065: ProcessOptions raw development settings for DNG

Problem: a DNG developed only one way, exactly as the file says. A Raw
settings panel needs a stable struct to change white balance, exposure,
highlights, demosaic quality and output, and playback needs a way to
ask for a smaller picture.

Fix: add `ProcessOptions` (Default = today's output, bit-identical):
white balance AsShot | Custom { temperature, tint }, exposure in stops
(added to BaselineExposure), highlights Clip | Recover (Recover is
accepted but develops like Clip for now, documented), demosaic Fast
(bilinear) | High (Malvar-He-Cutler), output SceneLinearRec709, and an
optional target size for a reduced-resolution path (a hint; the full
size is made until that path lands). New entry points
`Dng::develop_with`, `decode_with`, `process::develop_with`,
`demosaic::demosaic_with`; `Dng::as_shot_temperature_tint` gives the
as-shot white as kelvin / tint. Temperature and tint are a point on the
Planckian locus (Krystek 1985) and a CIE 1960 delta-uv.

+`ProcessOptions::default()` develops exactly like `decode`. `Highlights::Recover` is accepted but
+not implemented yet (it develops like `Clip`). `Dng::as_shot_temperature_tint` gives the as-shot
+white as kelvin and tint, the starting point of a white-balance control; temperature and tint
+are a point on the Planckian locus (Krystek 1985) and a CIE 1960 Δuv (tint 150 = Δuv −0.05).

 the raw image in a SubIFD, and arbitrary extra tags.

Subject: [PATCH 02/13] #1065: optional serde derives on the DNG raw settings

Problem: UI state and project files are serde, and the Raw settings
panel (built outside crates/dng) would otherwise have to mirror
`ProcessOptions` and its enums.

Fix: an optional `serde` feature on filmcraft-dng derives Serialize /
Deserialize on `ProcessOptions`, `WhiteBalance`, `Highlights`,
`DemosaicQuality` and `OutputSpace`; missing fields take their
defaults. Off by default, so the crate's dependencies are unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 03/13] #1065: CinemaDNG in MXF
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Problem: CinemaDNG has two storage forms, a folder of DNG frames and
MXF-wrapped DNG (CinemaDNG specification §4.2: a decoder shall read
both). Only folders opened; an MXF file with DNG pictures showed the
unreadable slate.

Fix: from the public CinemaDNG Image Data Format Specification 1.0.0.0
(§7) and the SMPTE RP 224 register:
- filmcraft-mxf identifies CinemaDNG pictures (Codec::CinemaDng) from
  the spec's essence container labels (06.0E.2B.34.04.01.01.xx.0F.0A.
  0D.0B.02.7F.01|02.00, CFA / LinearRaw; provisional labels from
  Adobe's experimental range, not SMPTE-registered), the registered
  MXF-GC TIFF/EP container and TIFF/EP picture coding labels, the 42h
  picture element type, or a TIFF header in the essence.
- The MXF writer can write CinemaDNG (frame-wrapped DNG datasets,
  element type 42h, RGBA descriptor with pixel layout and reference
  levels, no coding label); clip-wrapped OP-Atom is refused because a
  TIFF dataset has no length (§7.1.1).
- filmcraft-codecs develops each picture on its own with filmcraft-dng
  (through filmcraft_media::still::dng, like DNG stills and folders)
  into scene-linear Rec. 709 float frames, cached per picture outside
  the GOP cache; size and pixel format come from the first DNG, edit
  rate, timecode and PCM sound from the MXF.

Tests: synthetic OP1a files from our writer wrapping DNGs from the dng
test writer (CFA lossless JPEG and LinearRaw): every frame's level in
any order, rate, timecode, sample-exact sound, the registered openers;
a non-DNG picture is an error; truncation and mutation never panic.

Subject: [PATCH 04/13] #1065: faster DNG decode and development,
 reduced-resolution path

Problem: a 4096 x 2160 12-bit lossless-JPEG CinemaDNG frame took about
50 ms (tiles) to 115 ms (one strip) on 16 threads and about 200 ms on
one, too slow for smooth 4K playback, and every frame was developed at
full size even for small monitors and proxies.

Fix, without changing the output (f32 bit patterns compared):
- Lossless JPEG: one 13-bit lookup gives a code and its difference
  bits together; the bit reader takes eight bytes at once when they
  hold no 0xFF; per-predictor line loops.
- Tiles decode in parallel by bands straight into place; a single
  strip covering the image is used without a copy.
- Normalisation: without black-level deltas, a lookup table per
  CFA / black-level site replaces the per-sample float arithmetic
  (each entry computed by the same expression).
- Demosaic, crop and colour run row by row from the normalised plane
  (no padded copy, no RGB intermediate), with 5 x 5 windows sliding
  along the five mirrored rows; the bilinear (Fast) Bayer demosaic
  sums in the reference order.
- ProcessOptions::target_size now develops Bayer, LinearRaw and mono
  pictures at 1/2, 1/4 or 1/8 size (the smallest covering the
  target) by averaging each colour over the blocks, without demosaic.

The first version is kept as `reference` (feature `writer`, tests and
benchmarks only): tests/equivalence.rs checks identical raw samples and
developed bits over all Bayer phases, both qualities, odd crops,
active areas, linearisation, black deltas, codes above the bit depth,
LinearRaw, mono, other CFAs and tiny pictures; examples/bench.rs times
both interleaved at 1/4/16 threads. Best of 9 under load ~12: tiles
2.5x (1 thread) to 2.9x (16), one strip 2.1-2.6x; half size 3-4x.

Subject: [PATCH 05/13] #1065: tint sign of the DNG white balance follows the
 raw-converter convention

Problem: WhiteBalance::Custom's tint had the opposite sign to the usual
raw-converter control: a positive tint moved the white towards magenta,
so the developed picture turned greener, and as_shot_temperature_tint
reported D65 as about -10.

Fix: tint is now +delta-uv x 3000 (a white above the Planckian locus,
i.e. a greener light that the white balance compensates towards
magenta): positive tint gives a more magenta picture and D65 reads
about +10. Tests: the direction on a developed D65 grey (green falls
against red / blue as tint rises; the as-shot grey stays grey) and

Subject: [PATCH 06/13] #1065: camera raw Source Settings for DNG and CinemaDNG

Problem: DNG footage could only be developed as the file says: no way
to change white balance, exposure or decode quality per clip
(Premiere's Source Settings for camera raw), and playback at reduced
resolution still developed every frame in full.

Fix:
- filmcraft-media: RawSettings (white balance as shot or custom
  temperature / tint, exposure, highlights, demosaic quality, output
  space) mapped onto filmcraft-dng's ProcessOptions; MediaSource gains
  raw_info / with_raw_settings, implemented by DNG stills (new
  DngStill), DNG sequences and CinemaDNG MXF. A FrameRequest scale
  below 1 asks the decoder for a 1/2^k picture (never smaller than
  requested), cached per level.
- Project: Interpretation::raw (absent = as the file says). Schema
  v15 -> v16, a no-op step, because older builds would drop the
  settings when saving; older projects load unchanged.
- Engine: clip.sourceSettings now edits camera raw items (one undo
  step; values validated; highlight recovery refused until the decoder
  has it) and, without settings, describes the item as before;
  media.rawInfo gives the settings and the as-shot temperature / tint.
  The media pool keys sources by their raw settings, so a change or
  its undo develops again.

Tests: engine command tests on CinemaDNG folders, DNG stills and MXF
(exposure doubles every frame, undo / redo / reset, as-shot white
balance round trip, 3200 K turns D65 footage blue, positive tint
magenta, fast demosaic, half-resolution requests, save / reopen,
17 hostile parameter sets change nothing, non-raw footage refused);
media and codecs tests of the sources; a v15 fixture loads unchanged.

+//!   clips; subclips address their media). Values left out keep each item's current one.
+//!   `temperature` / `tint` set a custom white balance; `whiteBalance: "asShot"` goes back to the
+//!   camera's. `reset: true` develops as the file says. Without any setting it changes nothing
+//!   and describes the first item (as `media.rawInfo`; for other footage, why it has no source
+//!   settings), which is what the dialog shows.
+//! - `media.rawInfo {item}`: whether the item is camera raw, its settings, and the file's as-shot
+//!   white balance as temperature and tint (the starting point of a custom one).
+//!
+//! The settings are stored in the item's `Interpretation::raw` (None = as the file says); the
+//! media pool opens the item again with them ([`crate::media_pool::media_key`]).

Subject: [PATCH 07/13] #1065: Source Settings dialog for camera raw footage

Problem: Clip > Source Settings... only said that FilmCraft has no
source settings, also for DNG / CinemaDNG footage it can now develop
with settings.

Fix: for camera raw footage the dialog edits white balance (As Shot /
Custom temperature and tint, starting from the file's as-shot values),
exposure, demosaic quality and Reset to As Shot, shows the highlight
handling and output colour space, and applies clip.sourceSettings on
OK (one undo step); other footage keeps the information dialog. Every
control has an automation id (sourceSettings.*). Strings in the
Spanish, French, Japanese and Simplified Chinese catalogs (the
menus-only catalogs take menu labels only).

Tests: headless menus_ui test drives the dialog by automation id
(custom white balance, exposure, fast demosaic, OK, reopen, reset,
cancel, non-raw footage).

Subject: [PATCH 12/13] Source Settings review: no empty undo steps, doc and
 nit fixes

Treat null and reset:false as unset, skip edits that change nothing, reset
highlights/output in the dialog, document first-clip-only dialog, tighten
the reduced-development test, fix docs, stray quote and a duplicate ko comment.
