bflatastic 6fadae2818 Timeline: the pick whip picks the dimension it is dropped on (#363)
Dropping the expression pick whip on one of a property's values (the X
of Position) referenced the whole property. As in After Effects, a
drop on one value now picks that dimension: `transform.position[0]`;
a drop on the name still picks the whole property.

`prop.pickWhip` takes `target.dimension`.

The rest of #363 is unchanged: inserting at the cursor landed with
#284, and After Effects' property pick whip in the Parent & Link
column is left for later.

Tests: pick_whip_picks_one_dimension_of_the_target (engine),
the_expression_pick_whip_picks_the_dimension_it_is_dropped_on
(ui_inline_edit).

bflatastic bf09a4fcad Expressions: the pick whip inserts at the cursor while editing (#284)
Dragging an expression's pick whip always replaced the whole
expression, also while it was being edited (and the editor then wrote
its old text back over the reference). As in After Effects, a pick
whip pressed while the expression is being edited now puts the
reference at the cursor, replacing the selected text, and the editing
goes on with the cursor after the reference. Without an edit in
progress it replaces the expression as before.

`prop.pickWhip` takes the text being edited (`expression`) and the
selection in it (`range`, in characters) to insert there.

Tests: the_expression_pick_whip_inserts_at_the_cursor_while_editing
(ui_inline_edit), pick_whip_inserts_into_the_expression_being_edited
(engine).

Brandon Thomas f855a4b55b M14.5: wire the remaining settings; keyframe assistants and labels; AE menu entries
Settings: 56 of 59 not-yet-wired settings now change behaviour (nested-comp switches,
constant vertex count, related-item time sync, match-name pick whip, split-layer order,
Home on open, motion path span, internal wireframes, zoom quality, label-coloured tabs,
mask colour cycling, gradients, grid/guide styles, text engine, font preview/recent/native
names, missing frames, unlabeled alpha, drag import, default output folder, segmenting,
bit depth names, preview sample rate, disk/media/conformed-audio caches, RAM reserve and
low-memory reduction, Video Preview window, 3D reference axes/extended viewer/draft
shadows, script file gate + File.execute warning, expression editor options and error
banner). Three stay display-only and are documented.

Features: Convert Audio to Keyframes, RPF Camera Import (JSON/CSV camera data),
keyframe colour labels + Select Keyframe Label Group, Recent Animation Presets.
Menus: Edit > History, File > Import Recent Footage, Replace Footage > With Layered
Comp, Save a Copy As XML (.ecprojx, opens again), Composition > VR (Create VR
Environment, Extract Cubemap), Assign Shortcut to 3D view / workspace, Window viewer
labels + open viewers, Help > System Compatibility Report / Enable Logging / Reveal
Logging File. Dynamic menu nodes (@dynamic:…) shared by the egui and native menus.

Brandon Thomas 951ed1fa3d M5.2–M5.5: keyframe clipboard, easy ease, velocity/interpolation dialogs, roving, time remap/stretch/reverse/freeze, graph editor, separate dimensions, pick-whip
Engine (all commands with undo/redo + tests in engine/src/tests_timeline.rs):
- keys.copy/paste (Edit Copy/Cut/Paste route to keys when keys are selected;
  relative timing kept, paste at CTI, cross-property paste of same type),
  keys.selectAll (Cmd+Alt+A), keys.nudge* (Alt+Arrow, Alt+Shift+Arrow),
  keys.set / keys.setEase (graph editor drags), keys.info (dialog data),
  keys.timeReverse; keys.interpolation gains continuous/auto Bezier, spatial
  interpolation and roving; keys.velocity takes per-dimension values and
  Continuous.
- Roving keys (keyframe::retime_roving): constant speed along the motion path.
- Layer > Time: layer.timeStretch (percent|duration, hold in/current/out),
  layer.timeReverse (Cmd+Alt+R), layer.enableTimeRemap (Cmd+Alt+T),
  layer.freezeFrame, layer.freezeOnLastFrame; render uses Time Remap as the
  source time for precomp/footage layers.
- prop.separateDimensions (X/Y/Z Position; prop.set on Position writes them).
- layer.setParent compensates so the layer stays in place (compensate:false
  to opt out).
- prop.pickWhip writes AE-style reference expressions (thisComp.layer(..),
  effect(..)(..), mask(..).maskFeather, temp=…;[temp,temp], …[0]).
- prop.setExpression: syntax errors keep the text but disable the expression.
- expr: arrays of properties returned by an expression are resolved.

UI: Keyframe Velocity, Keyframe Interpolation and Time Stretch dialogs;
Graph Editor (value + speed graphs, draggable keys and Bezier/influence
handles, auto-zoom, fit, show selected, separate dimensions, hold/linear/
auto Bezier/Easy Ease buttons); key + layer context menus. Clears the
workspace clippy -D warnings failures.
