Add multi-click text selection, pending caret formatting and clipboard support, text-aware colour controls, guide/grid snapping, and frame threading with loaded-port interactions.
Include the layout, drop-cap and IDML updates carried from #83, with safeguards for generated and linked stories, external text references, local IDs, locked frames and atomic colour edits.
Fixes#23.

Chris Cicchino's "Adobe InDesign – Page Tool and Liquid Layout" (11:00–
13:30) drags guides out of the rulers with the Page tool on a
guide-based page: "these guides are a little bit different... they are a
dashed line, a cyan dashed line" - liquid guides, which let the objects
they cross stretch with the page. DesignCraft drew liquid guides dashed
and applied them, but a guide could only become liquid through the
Liquid Layout panel's list: ruler drags always made ruler guides.
- canvas: with the Page tool, a page guide dragged from a ruler is a
liquid guide; its preview is dashed while it's dragged.
- engine: guide.add takes `liquid`.

table.options added as many rows as the requested header and footer
counts needed, without a limit. A large number typed into the Table
panel's Header Rows field froze the app and exhausted memory. Both
counts are now capped at 100, the limit table.insert already has.
The cross-reference index composed its destination stories through
the cache. One with a running header asked for the running-header
index, which composed the story holding the cross-reference, which
asked for the cross-reference index again: the stack overflowed and
the app aborted. Destination stories with a running header are now
composed without it, like those with cross-references already were.
The Type tool's clicks, drags and double-clicks on type on a path went to
the character at the same spot of the straightened line, and the caret
and highlight were drawn straight. A click now finds the character where
its nearest point along the path is (compose::PathTextMap, from the line
to the path and back, as path_glyphs places the glyphs); the caret stands
across the path there and the highlight bends with the text. A click on
the letters, above the path, hits the frame.
Depends on #636 (PathWarp::nearest).

Selected type on a path shows its start and end brackets across the path,
as in InDesign, and the Selection and Direct Selection tools drag them
along it (Move Bracket, one undo step): the text starts and ends where
they are, and text past the end bracket is overset.
- doc: PathType.end (None: the path's end)
- geom: PathWarp::nearest, the arc length of the nearest point
- engine: type.pathOptions {end}; brackets stay on the path and can't cross
- compose: the line runs from the start to the end bracket
- idml: EndBracket read and written
- tools: Cursor::PathBracket

As in InDesign, the Pen over an end point of an open path (selected, or
under the pointer) shows a continue cursor; clicking it carries on drawing
that path, new anchors going on its subpath, and clicking its other end
closes it. Dragging from the end point first reshapes its direction
lines. From the first anchor the subpath is reversed first.
- engine: path.reverse (Object > Paths > Reverse Path), path.setAnchor;
path.appendAnchor and path.close take a subpath, and appendAnchor
refuses a closed subpath
- tools: Cursor::PenContinue

Force actual failed recovery publication at the reserved destination so privileged runners exercise the intended retention path. Keep the normal writer, publication order and existing assertions; enable these fixtures across platforms.
Validation: all six local gates and the FreeBSD root VM workspace build/tests.
PR #627.
Keep recovered snapshots available through a second crash before autosave. Track checkpoint ownership across folders and restarted IDs; Save, Close and Revert clean only checkpoints owned by that document.
Follow-up to #506 and the retention concern in #380.
PR #616.
Prepare and stage every chapter before a book update writes files. Preserve imported IDML sources, reject open native chapters and report completed paths after a later write failure.
Follow-up to #485.
PR #615.
Preserve document paths, revisions and collection contents when persistence fails. Rebase Save a Copy paths without changing the open document.

The canvas drew an underline (and a strikethrough) as one rectangle per
glyph; where two anti-aliased edges met at a fractional pixel they left
a lighter seam between the letters. Contiguous bars of the same colour
and position are merged into one, as the PDF export already does.

note.edit was the one story-text command still reading `text` without
text_param. The progress-log line held real CR and CRLF characters where
it meant to show the escapes; it reads `\r` and `\r\n` now.

frame.create and text.insert turned \r and \r\n into paragraph returns,
but story.replaceRange, story.setText, note.new, footnote and endnote
text, type on a path and table cells kept the CR in the text, where it
drew as a missing glyph and joined the paragraphs. They all use
text_param now.

type.selectionAttrs copied the whole selection to a string before taking
the first 60 characters, so selecting a long story copied all of it on
every query. It now skips leading blanks and stops after 60 characters.

type.selectionAttrs reports the start of the selected text on one line
(`selectedText`, up to 60 characters), for previews such as the font
menu's Selected Text sample. The preferences keep `recentFonts`, the
fonts last picked in the font menus.
