`Renderer::mb_on` (render options × the comp's switch × the layer's switch as the precomp
layers above limit it) now decides everywhere:
- Mask motion blur checked only the comp's switch and the layer's own switch, so Render
Settings ▸ Motion Blur ▸ Off for All Layers and a precomp layer with motion blur off still
blurred masks; it now takes the gate (`masks::MaskBlur`) and the comp's Samples Per Frame
(four in Draft) instead of a fixed eight.
- Effects that read the shutter (`EffectEnv::shutter`) get it only when the layer is motion
blurred in this render.
- Advanced 3D layers follow the precomp layers' Motion Blur switches too.
- The layer cache key of a layer with masks or effects includes whether it is blurred and the
comp's shutter and samples, so a buffer blurred for the viewer is never reused by a render
with motion blur off.

A precomp layer trimmed out (or time-remapped) past its nested comp's end kept drawing the
nested layers whose bars ran on. Like After Effects, the nested comp now shows nothing outside
its own span (`Comp::covers`), flattened, through a proxy or with Collapse Transformations, on
the CPU and the GPU (both go through `Renderer::source` / `collapse_into`).

Composition Settings ▸ Advanced has both options (they were missing from the model, the
renderer and the dialog):
- Preserve frame rate: nested in another comp, the comp shows only its own frames
(`EvalCtx::nested_time` floors the precomp layer's source time to the nested comp's frame
rate; used for the nested frame, its proxy, aux channels, collapsed transformations and the
viewer's internal wireframes), and the Render Queue renders it at its own rate whatever the
Frame Rate override (`RenderSettings::rate`).
- Preserve resolution: nested in a comp rendered at Half / Third / Quarter, it renders at full
size and the buffer's scale places it.
- `comp.settings {preserveFrameRate, preserveResolution}`, `comp.info` reports them, scripts
read and set `CompItem.preserveNestedFrameRate` / `preserveNestedResolution`, Pre-compose
copies them, and the dialog registers `dialog.comp.preserveFrameRate` /
`dialog.comp.preserveResolution`.

render: the debug-only quantisation check uses debug_assert! instead of panic!. gpu: the
test-only panic on a wgpu validation error is cfg(test) with a narrow allow, and release
builds only log. Test-only unreachable!() calls become panic!(). Denies the panic lints in both
crates.

- Every purge emptied the viewers' RAM preview; Purge ▸ All Disk Cache and Snapshot now leave
it (Image Cache Memory, All Memory, All Memory & Disk Cache, All and All 3D Cache still
clear it).
- The memory purges also drop the decoded footage frames (`FootageSource::purge`, the media
pool's `clear_frames`; decoders stay open), so footage reads decode again.

- GPU in browser job workers: each job worker opens its own WebGPU device
(deferred readbacks); the Render Queue export and the analyses' frame loops
are futures (render::passes, offload::run_request_async) whose frames
render in passes, awaiting the device between them. GPU particles and
Advanced 3D read back under keys too. workers.jobs reports passes and
readbacks; the smoke test measures them.
- Layer buffers in the browser's OPFS disk cache: frame workers back their
layer caches with a PrefetchStore; the page plans what to fetch before a
request from recent misses (LayerPrefetch over the shared DiskIndex).
- Templates embed footage (default on, size-capped with a warning) and
creating from a template extracts it next to the new project / into
browser storage.
- ICC LUT profiles (lut8/lut16/lutAtoB/lutBtoA, from the public ICC spec) in
Simulate Output > My Custom RGB, baked into a 3D LUT for the viewer.

- GPU in the browser: each frame worker opens its own WebGPU device (Gpu::request_deferred) and
renders the GPU compositor and GPU effects with deferred readbacks (effectcraft-gpu deferred):
readbacks keyed by content start with map_async and miss, the pass returns placeholders, the
layer cache's gate drops inserts, and FrameServer::resume renders again once the device
delivered. Backend Auto times whole frames per comp in the workers. Frames with effects go to
GPU workers instead of the page. CPU fallback without WebGPU in workers (?nogpuworkers).
- Fix: a WGSL constant (3.40282347e38) that Chrome rejects invalidated every GPU kernel in Chrome
(the page's compositor too); a test checks every float literal fits f32.
- Disk cache in the Origin Private File System: workers write sealed frame entries with sync
access handles (temp file + move), the page keeps the DiskIndex (LRU under the settings' limit,
at most half the quota) and reads hits instead of rendering; survives reloads; blue cache bar.
- Storage manager: Settings ▸ Disk ▸ Browser Storage (usage/quota, persistent storage, Clear
buttons, automation ids) and storage.info / storage.persist / storage.clear (StorageHost).
- Docs: web.md (GPU workers, deferred passes, disk cache, storage manager, threading design:
one engine instance per worker), architecture, preferences, parity (WEB-1), roadmap.
- Tests: deferred passes vs CPU on a real device, placeholder gating, frame server passes and
Auto, GPU worker routing + disk cache across a reload, storage commands and widgets, store
usage by kind; smoke test: GPU effect frames in workers with pixel parity, disk hits after a
reload, storage manager.

render: three_d::adv::SplitRun (Renderer::split_adv_run) hands draw_run's split path to an
accelerator as data (main scene, special layers far to near, 3D mattes drawn solo);
Renderer::sky_draw / three_d::SkyDraw for Environment Light Background layers. gpu: the walk
draws skies (adv_sky kernel), resolves each special layer, hides it behind the nearer main
scene (occlude kernel) and composites it through the 2D path without readbacks.

Advanced 3D runs render entirely on the GPU: every motion-blur sub-sample
rasterised, resolved and averaged, the depth-based iris depth of field
(Classic 3D bokeh spans, highlight boost, progressive levels), the sRGB
encode and the composite over the GPU canvas (Accelerator::render_3d,
Renderer::prepare_adv_run, adv3d.wgsl). Wireframe outlines draw on the GPU.
Fixes NaN environment lookups for straight up/down normals on Metal.
bench --gpu gains an Advanced 3D comp (--adv3d).

Viewer frames render in long-lived Web Workers holding a project replica
(engine::remote: structural JSON diff/patch, Mirror, FrameServer); the
frame cache hands jobs to a RemoteFrames renderer (UI-thread fallback).
Roto Brush propagation runs in a job worker and streams segmentations
back (FrameSeg binary form), relayed to frame workers. Control-channel
wait:true commands whose job is offloaded reply when it ends. The Media
Browser browses a pluggable Browser: the file system on the desktop;
browser storage and File System Access folders on the web.

Depth of field in Advanced 3D comps uses the camera's iris (Fast Rectangle, Triangle to
Decagon, rotation, roundness, aspect, diffraction fringe) and highlight gain/threshold/
saturation through the Classic 3D bokeh kernel. Collapsed precomps in an Advanced 3D comp
add their nested layers as real geometry (meshes, extrusions, cards) lit by the parent;
2D collapsed precomps draw nested 3D layers with the parent's renderer. Text and shape
strokes extrude as bevelled meshes stacked in paint order (model extrude_stacked).

Planes prepared for the GPU carry their depth of field (padding, radius map, levels) and the
bokeh_boost / bokeh_prefix / bokeh_gather kernels blur them where they are drawn, with the CPU's
spans; GPU-vs-CPU agreement tests for iris shapes, highlights, fringe, Fast Rectangle, tilted
planes and a 2D layer with a 3D track matte.

- Transform: Use Composition's Shutter Angle / Shutter Angle, sampling the transform across
the shutter via EffectHost::params_at (EffectEnv::shutter carries the comp shutter when
motion blur is on); the GPU path defers to the CPU when blurring.
- Glow: Glow Operation (blend modes) and Glow Colors > Arbitrary Map.
- Cartoon: Advanced > Edge Enhancement (shock-filter sharpening / softening).

Text: text.animatorFontAxes (replaces the stub) lists the layer font's
variation axes (skrifa) or adds an animator property that offsets one axis
(weighted by the selectors, from the axis default); the renderer redraws each
character's outline at its design-space position (cached per location). The
Timeline's Animate: menu lists the font's axes.

Text: vertical type turns Roman characters on their side (CJK stays
upright) unless Standard Vertical Roman Alignment is on; Tate-Chu-Yoko sets
selected characters horizontally in a one-em cell of the column (layer.setText
tateChuYoko / verticalRomanUpright, Character panel toggles). A Left-to-Right
paragraph is now forced LTR instead of auto-detected. The editing caret follows
animators and text on a path (render::text::caret_maps). Lottie export writes
per-character style runs as index-unit range animators.

3D-1: Classic 3D depth of field renders the camera's Iris Shape (Fast
Rectangle box or Triangle…Decagon polygon), Iris Rotation, Roundness, Aspect

progressively by per-pixel camera depth. Layer > Camera > Link Focus Distance
