Problem: expression text is input we don't control, and nothing fuzzed the
expression parser and evaluator. A seeded mutation fuzzer found stack
overflows (a few hundred `?:`/`=>`/`if`, a few thousand `.`/`<`/`()` links,
75 nested template substitutions or regex groups, a chain inside one
template), hangs (an expression reading its own layer's transform nested
2^16 times; fanning-out reads; 10M-iteration loops re-run per read; loops
calling looping functions), an i64 overflow panic in wiggle noise, and NaN
path vertices tripping the rasterizer's clipping assertion.
Fix: a dependency-free seeded fuzzer (crates/expr/src/tests/fuzz.rs: real
AE-style seeds, char/token mutations, worker thread with a 2 MiB stack,
catch_unwind, deadline, env vars for long runs); a weighted nesting
estimate covering chains without brackets and template/regex insides;
cycle detection per (property, time, text); a per-evaluation budget of
20 000 script runs and 5 s (runs are interrupted through boa's budgeted
evaluation; native only); loop limit 1M; wrapping noise lattice indices;
non-finite path results rejected. Each fix has a regression test.

An expression nested about 60 brackets deep overflowed the stack of a 2 MiB thread in the
JavaScript parser (release and debug; ~200 levels on 8 MiB), which aborts the whole app: it
can't be caught. The array-maths rewrite also nests one call per arithmetic operator, so a long
sum went the same way, and the rewriter itself recursed per bracket. rewrite() now measures the
nesting (brackets plus chains of prefix operators) before and after rewriting and turns an
expression deeper than MAX_NESTING (32) into a RangeError; check_syntax reports the same error.
Also replaces the unreachable!() in the bracket-tree builder with a let-chain, and denies the
panic lints in the crate.

sampleImage renders the sampled layer through the evaluating renderer's footage source
(EvalCtx::footage), cached per thread and frame. File > Import reads .json/.csv/.tsv as data
footage kept in the project. expr.errors collects failing expressions for the error bar;
expr.languageMenu lists the categorised Expression Language menu. Marker keys expose
protectedRegion and cue points; colorDepth, timeToFeetAndFrames, comp.activeCamera.
