Jason Baldwin 29b3f35136 LRC-LIB-CATALOG-IMPORT: read Lightroom's Custom white balance by its as-shot shift on relative-WB raws (#510)
A Custom white balance from a Lightroom catalog or XMP sidecar was taken as absolute Kelvin for every
raw. Raws LightCraft develops relative to their as-shot look (ARW, NEF, RW2, RAF, CR3, CR2, PEF; 6500 K
means as shot) then read a small tweak as a large blue shift: ΔE 22 against Lightroom's export on the
photos of issue #510.

The crs mapper now takes a `Target` (preset, rendered, raw with a measured illuminant, relative-WB raw)
instead of a bool. For relative-WB raws, and rendered files with only `Temperature`, a Kelvin value is
converted to the same mired shift from the packet's `AsShotTemperature` / `AsShotTint`. Without that
reference (Lightroom catalogs keep none for Custom photos) the photo stays As Shot and the import
report lists `Temperature, Tint` as not carried over. Import, sidecar read and catalog import decide
the target the same way through `lightcraft_catalog::relative_wb_format`.

Tests: shift from the issue's numbers (3650 → 3578 K lands at ~6275 K), the As Shot fallback with its
report entry, target selection per file, and the catalog mapper's Custom-WB case.
