The Ease Presets panel (#254) is modelled on a third-party panel, so,
as with third-party tools in After Effects, it isn't core any more: it
is `extensions/scriptui-panels/Ease Presets.jsx`, a ScriptUI panel
bundled as an optional extension (Window ▸ Ease Presets.jsx), written
only against the public scripting API. Clicking a preset eases every
pair of neighbouring selected keyframes in one undo step (per
dimension, along the motion path for spatial properties, the keys'
other sides as they play); the fields edit the working curve, which the
panel draws; From Keys, Save, Rename and Delete as before. The twelve
built-in curves are unchanged.
Scripting API fixes it needed (After Effects parity):
- `app.settings` lasts between runs (`script_settings.json` in the
settings folder; `script.settings.get` / `script.settings.save`).
- Per-key methods (`setTemporalEaseAtKey`, `setInterpolationTypeAtKey`,
`removeKey`, the continuous / auto-Bezier / roving setters) no longer
change the user's key selection (they selected the key they edited).
- `keyInTemporalEase` / `keyOutTemporalEase` report linear and
auto-Bezier sides as they play, `keyIn/OutSpatialTangent` the
tangents the motion path plays.
- `selectedProperties` includes the properties of selected keyframes.
- `isInterpolationTypeValid` is false for Linear / Bezier on values that
only hold.
Removed from core: Window ▸ Ease Presets, the `keys.easePreset.*`
commands, `engine::ease_presets` and the `ease_presets.json` store,
`keyframe::EaseCurve` (nothing else used it) and the egui panel. User
presets saved by the v0.6.0 panel move into the panel's app.settings
section the first time settings load (the old file is left as is).
Docs: plugins.md (bundled extensions), parity.md, gaps.md G8, agents.md.

presets_saved_by_the_old_core_panel_carry_over (script, through the
panel's controls), ease_presets_panel_eases_the_selected_keys_from_its_list
(UI: the panel docks and a click on a preset eases the keys).

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`.

The getters were registered as keySpatialInTangent / keySpatialOutTangent,
so scripts using the documented After Effects names failed with
"TypeError: not a callable function" (setSpatialTangentsAtKey and the
other keySpatial* methods already use AE's names).

Adding a property already in the Essential Graphics panel adds a mirror
(EgKind::Mirror: own name and place, one value in the comp and in every
instance; editing, reverting or pushing either acts on both). A property
control can also drive further properties of the comp (links follow the
main property both ways and take instance values). essential.addMirror,
essential.linkProperty, essential.unlinkProperty; panel badges and menu;
ExtendScript addToMotionGraphicsTemplate(As), canAddToMotionGraphicsTemplate,
motionGraphicsTemplateName, controller count/name and
exportAsMotionGraphicsTemplate.
