Related to #1365. Display labels only; effect, command, parameter, panel and serialized ids and the AEP/script match-name tables are unchanged.
- 69 Cycore CC effects, Key Light, Mocha shape, Lumetri Color/Scopes and the Mercury renderer labels get descriptive names; the old names stay case-insensitive lookup and search aliases.
- Backend::parse accepts the new renderer labels, so reported settings round-trip.
- Display names are unique per language in every effect catalog (new test).
- Warp Stabilizer and Roto Brush keep their names until RFC-0029 settles.
- Mapping in docs/feature-naming.md.
The gradient antialias could leave a half-covered pixel where an opaque source reaches h = 1. Add an endpoint guard on CPU and GPU and cover an opaque edge in the regression test.
Use the measured Softness kernel (sigma = 0.42 * Softness), threshold the blurred height with a ~1 px antialias, and allow Cut Away 100 to empty the matte. Split the source-matte displacement from the height-field RGB refraction: the matte uses a z=1 bevel normal fitted to the T2 step edges, while RGB follows the measured z=height refraction. Align the documented AE defaults and add CPU regression tests for the cut threshold, Cut Away 100, and the inward matte warp. Update the GPU kernel and parameters to match, keeping CPU/GPU parity.
A text or shape layer's effect bounds are comp-sized (as in After Effects),
but its buffer surrounds only its content, and each effect grows the buffer
itself when it needs room. CC Smear and CC Tiler never did, so a smear was
cut off where the glyphs end and tiles filled only the text's box.
CC Tiler now covers the whole layer rectangle; CC Smear grows by how far it
moves pixels (Reach x From->To), at most to the layer bounds, so footage
layers, whose buffer is their bounds already, are unchanged. CPU and GPU
alike.

GPU render passes for CC Particle World / Systems II, Particle Playground,
CC Ball Action, CC Pixel Polly, CC Scatterize and Curl Noise (fx_particles,
chunked multi-pass raster); Shatter wireframe views, Foam extras, Timewarp
with a Matte Layer, strong Warp Fisheye/Twist (CPU f64 inverse map) and
custom .ocio configs no longer fall back to the CPU. CPU refactors pinned by
particle_golden / timewarp_golden / sim_golden hashes.

- gpu: pooled working textures (released once every encoder that could read
them is submitted), shared zero images, reused readback staging buffers,
direct readback into Image; NaN-poisoned scratch images under test and
NaN-aware diffs; validation errors panic under test
- render: AutoPick (per comp / scale / path EWMA of CPU vs GPU frame times,
warm-up and periodic re-probe) behind Backend::Auto; viewer uses it too;
cached adjustment footprints (uploaded once)
- gpu fx_warp: Warp, Bezier Warp, CC Bend It, CC Page Turn, Smear, Reshape,
Color Emboss, Cartoon; sliding-histogram median for large radii; CC Power
Pin perspective < 100
- cli: bench --gpu reports Auto and per-frame upload / readback MB
