Dylan M. Taylor 384c4361a6 Auto-trace: bound the nesting, simplification and fitting work
Many separate regions made the nesting depth test every pair of contours,
Douglas-Peucker could rescan a span once per point (and recurse as deep as
the loop is long), and the curve fit searched the raw contour from its start
for every simplified vertex.

- Depth: each loop's bounding box goes into a coarse grid; a loop's first
  point is tested only against loops whose box holds it. Same depths as
  testing every pair.
- Douglas-Peucker: spans wait on an explicit stack, with a budget of 64
  distance evaluations per point; spans still waiting when it runs out keep
  all their points, so the outline stays exact.
- Fitting: uses the raw indices the simplifier kept instead of searching.
