Masks are applied before effects, but the noise was composited with the
Opacity alpha alone, so a masked solid filled the whole layer. The result
is now multiplied by the original alpha on the CPU and on both GPU paths
(kernels.wgsl for the default settings, fx_noise.wgsl for the rest).

The modern curve used g = 2^(2c), so Contrast 100 crushed 0.25 to about 8/255 while AE is about 40/255. Brightness is now a pin-black-and-white power toward white or black, then a milder S-curve g = 1 + 0.53 c, fitted to kasper9n's AE grey ramps. Legacy linear mode is unchanged. The GPU kernel matches the CPU.
Measured against After Effects at 32 bpc:
- Classic Color Dodge, Classic Color Burn and Classic Difference at partial opacity: AE
fades the source toward the mode's neutral colour (0 for Dodge and Difference, 1 for
Burn) by the opacity and applies the classic formula at full strength (b / (1 − k·o),
|b − k·o|, 1 − (1 − b) / (1 − k·(1 − o))). We mixed the full-strength result by opacity:
up to 45/255 off on ordinary 0–1 footage.
- Overlay, Exclusion, Luminosity, Color Burn and Classic Color Burn keep their plain formula
for values above 1 (HDR passes). They were missing from `supports_hdr`, so their inputs
were clamped to 0–1 (Exclusion was up to 208/255 off); Classic Color Burn also clamped
its result at 0, where AE keeps negative values.
The CPU blend (color::blend_pixel) and the GPU kernel (common.wgsl) change together.
Tests: the reporter's formulas for each case (blend.rs); the CPU/GPU parity test of every
blend mode at every bit depth (over-range values, 70 % opacity) passes.

Cause: the config reader didn't know ColorSpaceTransform or
ExponentWithLinearTransform and passed colours through them silently.
Blender's Linear Rec.709 -> sRGB therefore stayed in its E-white XYZ
reference space (the blue cast) without the sRGB curve. Display
colorspaces, view transforms, v2 views, looks, AllocationTransform,
BuiltinTransform and .spi1d / .spimtx files were missing too, and
nothing told the user.
Fix (from the OCIO v2 documentation and the CLF "moncurve", not OCIO's
source): ExponentWithLinear, ColorSpace, Look, DisplayView, Allocation
and Builtin transforms (identity, ACES AP0/AP1 matrices, ACEScct /
ACEScc, the sRGB / P3 / Rec.1886 / gamma / PQ displays). RangeTransform
now clamps and takes one-sided ranges. Display colorspaces meet the
scene reference through the default view transform. Added v2 views,
view looks, the looks section and .spi1d / .spi3d / .spimtx files. A
conversion is built once as a flat list of steps (Config::path /
display_path) for both the CPU effect and the GPU colour program (new
moncurve and clamp ops and the ACEScc curve; a program over the
kernel's 255 ops renders on the CPU). Named-transform resolution is
limited to 16 levels and 4096 steps, and YAML nesting to 64 levels, so
hostile or looping configs stop. Transforms that are still unsupported
(Grading Primary / Tone, ACES output, HLG…), unreadable configs and
unknown spaces are now reported: a warning under the effect in Effect
Controls, and the new effect.warning query.
Tests: ocio_config::blender_like_config_converts_linear_rec709_to_srgb
(CST, display colorspaces, v1 / v2 views, allocation, looks, builtin,
range, loops), moncurve_matches_srgb_and_inverts, builtin_styles,
yaml_nesting_is_bounded, ocio::spi_files_parse,
tests_effects::ocio_effect_warns_about_unsupported_config_transforms,
gpu tests_fx_lut::ocio_custom_config_v2 (GPU = CPU).

Cause: Auto dropped to Half below 75 % magnification, so text between
50 % and 75 % was rendered with fewer pixels than the screen shows and
looked soft. Below 100 % the frame texture was minified with a plain
bilinear sampler and no mip levels (Full at 46 % skipped most frame
pixels), so edges stair-stepped.
Fix:
- Auto renders the pixels the magnification needs, as in After Effects:
the coarsest whole factor that still gives every screen pixel a
rendered one (Full above 50 %, Half down to 33.3 %, Third down to
25 %, Quarter below).
- GPU frames: the display texture carries a full mip chain, each level
the 2 x 2 mean of the one above (display.wgsl `mip`, same bind group
layout as `display`), sampled trilinearly with Viewer Zoom Quality
More Accurate (Faster keeps the nearest pixel of the full-size frame).
- CPU frames (egui-wgpu textures have no mips): uploaded averaged down
by the whole factor that leaves about one texel per screen pixel, the
same box average as the texture-limit fit (#201), re-uploaded when the
magnification calls for another factor; drawn with texture coordinates
that keep each texel over its pixels when the size isn't a multiple.
Show Channel / exposure textures follow.
Tests: gpu tests::display_frames_are_mipmapped (level count and level 1
= 2 x 2 means of level 0), viewer_tools
auto_resolution_follows_the_magnification (60 % was Half) and
minified_frames_keep_their_texels_in_place.

Soft Linear was value noise with a quintic fade between two lattice
values per axis. That fade has zero slope across every lattice line and
at every lattice point, so the noise's contours met the lattice at right
angles and flattened around its points. The turbulent fold (1 - |s|) and
high contrast turned that into a visible square grid at each layer's cell
size (Turbulent Basic, Contrast 140, Brightness -35: gradients 1.3x as
strong along the axes as along the diagonals; Spline 1.1x).
Soft Linear is now linear interpolation softened by a one-cell box
filter, i.e. the uniform quadratic B-spline over the 3 x 3 lattice values
around the nearest one (evolution still fades between two slices): smooth
everywhere, with half the neighbours' difference as its slope on lattice
lines, and cheaper than Spline (9 taps instead of 16). Averaging
lowers the noise's spread, so a fixed gain about mid-grey restores the
quintic fade's variance and existing projects keep their contrast and
brightness (issue settings: mean 0.356 -> 0.362, std 0.147 -> 0.152,
axis bias 1.28 -> 1.05).
Only Fractal / Turbulent Noise's Soft Linear changes: generate's
value_noise and its other callers are untouched. noise3 now shares
generate's lattice hash and fade instead of copying them. The GPU
kernels (pointwise Fractal Noise and fxn_fractal) call the same
soft_linear_noise. No golden hashes pin these cases.

FreeBSD's CI VM (Mesa llvmpipe over GL) failed 22 effectcraft-gpu tests:
- Advanced 3D's camera-depth target was R32Float, which GLES can't render to without
EXT_color_buffer_float: create_render_pipeline failed validation (release builds only log
that and draw nothing). The target is now R32Uint holding the f32 bits (renderable on every
backend, lossless), and GpuContext checks the adapter's format features (render attachment,
blendable colour) and independent blending up front; when they're missing the render
pipelines are never built and Advanced 3D renders on the CPU.
- Signed `%` in the shaders: naga emits GLSL `%`, undefined for negative operands, which broke
the VR effects' horizontal wrap and Cell Pattern's tiling. A shared `imod` never takes `%` of
a negative number.
- asin/acos: Mesa's are coarse approximations (~1e-4 rad), visible in every lens/sphere/cylinder
mapping. `asin_p`/`acos_p` (Cephes' asinf polynomial) are f32-accurate on every backend.
- "Could not lock adapter context": the GL backend has one context lock per adapter with a
timeout, so tests driving devices concurrently panic. Every gpu test helper that hands out a
device holds one process-wide lock for the calling test; ui_web_job_gpu's two device tests
share a lock too.
- On GL, up to 1 % of pixels may flip across a decision boundary (division through a
reciprocal, unfused fma); the GPU-vs-CPU comparisons allow that there only.
Also adds the FreeBSD workflow (from the FreeBSD CI PR) so this branch is checked there.

The geometry stays on the CPU as per-frame plans shared with the CPU effects (bolts, mask
strokes, scribbles, contour segments, audio marks, glyph strokes, waves, flood-fill region,
eyedropper sample); segments and convex polygons are tile-binned and rasterised on the GPU
with the CPU's coverage functions. CPU output unchanged (gen_golden). CC Threads' exact ties
at round parameter values are a documented exception; Fractal stays on the CPU (needs f64).

CC Rainfall, Snowfall, Star Burst, Bubbles, Drizzle, Hair, Mr. Mercury,
Caustics, Wave World, Foam, Shatter, Card Dance and Card Wipe render on the GPU
(fx_sim.rs / fx_sim.wgsl). The per-frame simulation / layout stays on the CPU
and is shared with the CPU effect through plans (effects::sprite_plan,
piece_plan, bubble_list, mercury_blobs, drizzle_drops, wave_world_plan,
caustics_setup); a tiled item rasteriser composites sprites, bubbles, blob
fields and textured pieces in the CPU's order and shading. Layer-dependent
sprite colours (refracting rain, star-burst and hair roots) are sampled per
pixel; piece plans read the frame back once.

- GPU in the browser: each frame worker opens its own WebGPU device (Gpu::request_deferred) and
renders the GPU compositor and GPU effects with deferred readbacks (effectcraft-gpu deferred):
readbacks keyed by content start with map_async and miss, the pass returns placeholders, the
layer cache's gate drops inserts, and FrameServer::resume renders again once the device
delivered. Backend Auto times whole frames per comp in the workers. Frames with effects go to
GPU workers instead of the page. CPU fallback without WebGPU in workers (?nogpuworkers).
- Fix: a WGSL constant (3.40282347e38) that Chrome rejects invalidated every GPU kernel in Chrome
(the page's compositor too); a test checks every float literal fits f32.
- Disk cache in the Origin Private File System: workers write sealed frame entries with sync
access handles (temp file + move), the page keeps the DiskIndex (LRU under the settings' limit,
at most half the quota) and reads hits instead of rendering; survives reloads; blue cache bar.
- Storage manager: Settings ▸ Disk ▸ Browser Storage (usage/quota, persistent storage, Clear
buttons, automation ids) and storage.info / storage.persist / storage.clear (StorageHost).
- Docs: web.md (GPU workers, deferred passes, disk cache, storage manager, threading design:
one engine instance per worker), architecture, preferences, parity (WEB-1), roadmap.
- Tests: deferred passes vs CPU on a real device, placeholder gating, frame server passes and
Auto, GPU worker routing + disk cache across a reload, storage commands and widgets, store
usage by kind; smoke test: GPU effect frames in workers with pixel parity, disk hits after a
reload, storage manager.

Renderer::sky_draw / three_d::SkyDraw for Environment Light Background layers. gpu: the walk
