SiandClaude Opus 5.5 ce3a422f6a Add eight effects that throw something chaotic into the chain
Slit shift, channel split, pixel sort, corruption, shatter, warp, bit
crush and feedback: tearing bands sideways, knocking the colour planes
out of register, sorting runs of pixels, damaging blocks the way a broken
stream does, breaking the picture into shards, pushing it along a noise
field, mangling its bytes and laying it over itself again and again.

All eight are pure transforms. None needs sources, so any of them can
lead a chain, and like blur they start from a crop of a random source
when they do and photographs are loaded. canvasFromSources holds that
start once for them.

Each draws its whole plan from the rng before touching a pixel, and
pixel sort hands every line a seed of its own, so the parallel work
never decides anything. The rotations in shatter and feedback take their
sine and cosine from a short series of plain multiplications rather than
libm, so a seed lands on the same pixels whatever the machine's maths
library makes of std::sin.

The tests hold every one of them to the same things -- a seed
reproduces it, it runs without sources and as a later stage, a sliver
of a canvas does not trip it, turned right down it leaves its input
alone -- plus a check of what each actually does, and the registry now
checks that no two effects declare the same param key.

SiandClaude Opus 5 82e730221e Add a film grain effect
Grain is the third effect and the second that declares needsSources()
false, so it works as a filter stage in a cascade and can also lead one,
filling the canvas from a source the way blur does. Its knobs are the
amount a grain may push a pixel, the grain size in pixels, whether the
channels are drawn apart into coloured grain, and whether the response is
weighted towards the midtones — which it is by default, since film grains
least where it is least exposed. That last one means grain over an empty
canvas stays black unless the weighting is turned off.

Determinism comes from the same shape the scanlines effect uses: the
whole grain field is drawn serially from the Rng into one cell per grain
before any threading, and only the integer pixel arithmetic afterwards
runs under parallelFor.

The canvas fill blur used to keep to itself moves to
effects/source_fill.hpp unchanged, now that two effects want it.
