* Use chrono for UTC/calendar conversion instead of hand-rolled copies
Replaces the hand-rolled civil_from_days / days_from_civil copies (log
timestamp, ISO metadata dates, Align Video to Data timestamp parsing, the
Numbers effect's date, the Home and Render Queue date columns, and the
benchmark report date) with chrono as a workspace dependency. Output formats
are unchanged and pinned by the existing tests. AGENTS.md now says time goes
through chrono.
Follow-up to storytold/cadcraft#1785
* Keep 5-digit years unprefixed; derive Numbers weekday from the same date
chrono's %Y writes a '+' before years past 9999, where the old code wrote
{y:04}. timestamp, iso_date, format_utc, utc_stamp and xtask's utc now write
the year with {:04} again and let chrono format the rest, so a far-future
clock keeps the plain zero-padded year.
date_from_days took its weekday from the raw input modulo while the
year/month/day fell back to the epoch for day counts outside chrono's range,
so an unrepresentable count printed a fallback date paired with the input's
weekday. The weekday now comes from the same resolved date, so both agree.
Tests cover the year-10000 timestamp and the out-of-range Numbers date.
* Keep the whole date in format_ago for five-digit years
format_ago cut format_utc to 10 bytes, so a year past 9999 lost its last
digit (10000-01-0). Take the date up to the space instead. Tested.
* Keep Numbers dates exact past chrono's range
date_from_days converted the day count by building a Unix timestamp and
calling DateTime::from_timestamp, which falls back to the epoch (and so
reads 1970-01-01, a Thursday) once the date leaves chrono's NaiveDate
range near year ±262143. Numbers' `value` slider is a plain scalar with
no range guard, so a keyframed count reaches that: Long Date of
100_000_000 showed "Thursday, January 1, 1970" instead of the real
"Monday, September 13, 275790" -- exactly the plausible unrelated-date
fallback the review rejects, and the derived weekday matched the stand-in
date, not the input.
Route it through the 400-year Gregorian cycle like pdfcraft 9d4cb3ca:
chrono converts the day within one cycle (num_days_from_ce of the rebased
rest, always in range) and the whole cycles are added back as years, in
i128 so i64::MIN/MAX can't overflow. chrono stays the only calendar
logic. The weekday still comes from the resolved date, so it always
agrees with it.
Tested: date_from_days_past_chrono_range pins the pre-chrono dates and
weekdays at/over chrono's bound on both sides of the 2000-01-01 epoch
(and that the extremes don't overflow); numbers_formats adds the same
through the public numbers_text entry (Long/Short Date). cargo test
-p effectcraft-effects, fmt --check and clippy -D warnings all clean.
* time: preserve out-of-range years instead of the epoch
`DateTime::from_timestamp(..).unwrap_or_default()` changed the existing output:
inputs the old hand-rolled civil-from-days converted (e.g. `10_000_000_000_000`
s → 318857-05-20 17:46:40) collapsed to the epoch. Restore the old conversion
domain with a cycle-based helper: reduce by whole 400-year Gregorian cycles
(146_097 days), convert the in-range remainder with chrono, and carry the year
back as i128 (saturating to the output type). Only the year leaves chrono's
range; month, day and time of day stay exact. chrono remains the only calendar
logic (NaiveDate::from_num_days_from_ce_opt); no new features.
Sites (UTC):
- crates/engine logging.rs `timestamp` (u64 ms): far-future clock keeps its year.
10e12 s → "318857-05-20T17:46:40.000Z", u64::MAX ms → "584556019-04-03T14:25:51.615Z"

* Name the 400-year range extension as the one exception to the time rule
The rule said never to hand-roll calendar math, but the range fix
(shifting by whole 400-year Gregorian cycles so dates past chrono's year
range keep their old output) is cycle arithmetic, so the rule and the code
disagreed. The rule now names that exception: the library still computes
month, day and time, and only whole cycles are carried in the year.
* Say the library computes month and day; time-of-day is plain arithmetic
Narrows the range-extension wording: the date library computes the
calendar fields, and splitting seconds into hours, minutes and seconds
is ordinary arithmetic, which is what the code does.
Footage paths stored in a project are resolved through craft-docpath against
the project file when it is opened or imported: relative paths are taken from
the project's folder, and an item whose path is on another computer, names a
device or is a non-file URL is marked missing without being looked at. The
footage check, the changed-on-disk scan, Reload Footage, Relink, Edit Original
and Reveal in Finder resolve the path again before touching the file, and the
Project panel, Metadata panel and waveforms read no file details of missing
footage.
Lottie image assets are resolved against the Lottie file; one on another
computer is skipped with a warning. Files a 3D model names are read only when
local or on the model's own share.
Reveal in Finder refuses a folder that would open as an app or other bundle.
Files imported or relinked in this session are opened as given.
Problem: the Media Browser listed .dpx files and After Effects imports
DPX and Cineon scans (stills and numbered sequences), but import
refused them: nothing could decode either format, and .cin was not even
an image to the browser, so its runs never grouped into sequences.
Fix: a small pure-Rust reader written from the public SMPTE 268M and
Kodak Cineon specifications (crates/media/src/dpx.rs): luma, RGB, RGBA
and ABGR at 8/10/12/16 bits, 10-bit filled method A/B, 12-bit in 16-bit
words, both byte orders, lines padded to 32-bit words, unrotated
orientations and the pixel aspect ratio; the codec names the transfer
(log, linear, ...) and code values are shown as stored. RLE, signed,
float, Y'CbCr, packed 10/12-bit and transposed files are refused with a
clear error; every header field is bounds-checked and the data length
verified before allocating. Probe and frame decode use it first;
is_importable, the Media Browser kinds and the import dialog list
.dpx/.cin.

Problem: After Effects 26 imports FBX models into Advanced 3D comps; File > Import rejected
.fbx, so FBX product shots and scenes could not be used.
Fix: a clean-room FBX 7.x reader in effectcraft-model (binary node records with 32/64-bit
offsets and zlib arrays, ASCII syntax) and a scene builder: meshes with normals, UVs and
per-polygon materials, the Model hierarchy with the SDK transform (pivots, offsets, pre/post
rotation, rotation order, geometric transform), Lambert/Phong materials onto
metallic-roughness with embedded or relative textures, and GlobalSettings axes turned to
Y-up. Wired into import, probing, the media browser and the file dialog. Hostile input
(truncation, corruption, huge arrays, deep nesting) fails with an error.

Problem: After Effects 26 imports STL models besides glTF and OBJ; we
refused .stl files, and the Media Browser and import dialog did not list
them as models.
Fix: a pure-Rust STL reader in effectcraft-model (binary and ASCII,
detected from the contents; several ASCII solids and polygon loops;
VisCAM/SolidView and Materialise Magics facet colours as plain
materials; Z-up turned to the model's Y-up; faceted normals from the
winding). Truncated, empty or non-finite input is an error, never a
crash. .stl is now a model extension for import, probing, the Media
Browser, the import dialog and the system report.

Cause: float footage (OpenEXR, float TIFF) was always sRGB-encoded on
decode, and Interpret Footage could not turn that off, so an OCIO effect
on the layer converted values that were already encoded.
Fix: After Effects' Interpret Footage ▸ Color ▸ Preserve RGB
(Footage::preserve_rgb; file.interpretFootage {"preserveRgb": true}; a
checkbox in the Interpret Footage form; Remember / Apply Interpretation
carry it). The decoder keeps float values linear, and the working-space
conversion from the colour profile and Interpret As Linear Light don't
apply, so the file's values enter the composition unconverted. The media
cache key includes the flag, so both interpretations decode separately.
Tests: pool::preserve_rgb_reads_float_exr_values_unconverted,
tests_color::preserve_rgb_footage_is_not_converted (managed, linearized
and not), tests_proxy::guess_alpha_invert_and_linear_light (command,
render, Apply Interpretation).

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.
