* 3D: Orientation and X/Y/Z Rotation turn Z first, keyed Orientation slerps, as After Effects

After Effects composes a 3D layer's (and a camera's) Orientation and its X/Y/Z
Rotation as Rx * Ry * Rz each, Orientation before the axis rotations; EffectCraft
used Rz * Ry * Rx. Measured on synthetic AE 2026 cases: Orientation [10,20,30]
(488) was 5.2 % of the frame off and now matches to the anti-aliased edge (0.03 %);
X/Y/Z Rotation 10/20/30 (800), Orientation + X Rotation (801) and one-node
cameras (804, 805) likewise.

Keyed Orientation moves along the shortest arc between the keys (quaternion
slerp, eased in time, angles written in [0, 360)): keys [0,0,0] -> [10,20,30]
read back [6.2643, 9.3531, 15.2190] half-way where EffectCraft gave [5,10,15];
[0,0,0] -> [60,80,40] linear and eased match AE's read-backs within 0.002 deg.

lookAt() returns AE's angles (z axis on the target, x axis level; two AE
read-backs within 1e-3 deg). The camera tracker, VR editor, Look At and orbit
commands use the new decomposition.

* Keyframes: a linear side next to an eased side has 16.67 % influence, as After Effects

In a segment that is Bezier on one side and linear on the other, the linear
side keeps the segment's average speed, but with the 16.67 % influence After
Effects shows for linear keys in the Keyframe Velocity dialog (and reports to
scripts), not 33.3 %. Measured on an After Effects 2026 time-remap render (a
square at x = 50 + 455 * remap): out of a key at 2 s (3.5, speed 0, influence
50 %) into a linear key at 4 s (0.5), AE plays 3.290 at 2.5 s and 2.657 at
3 s; EffectCraft played 3.308 and 2.629 (8 and 13 px off), now the same
square positions to the pixel.

LINEAR_SIDE_INFLUENCE is used by evaluation (scalar, per-dimension, paths and
spatial), side_ease (Graph Editor, velocity dialog, keyIn/OutTemporalEase) and
the Lottie export, so exported easing plays as EffectCraft does. Segments
linear on both sides stay straight lines.

* Timewarp: retime the layer's source without the effects above it, as After Effects

After Effects' Timewarp reads the layer's source (with its masks) at the
retimed times and ignores the effects applied before it: a red solid with a
Gradient Ramp and then Timewarp (Speed 25) renders as the red solid in AE
2026 (EXPORTER e2 read-back). EffectCraft retimed the layer with its
effects (mean difference 127.5/255 over the comp), now identical (0, CPU and
GPU). Echo, Posterize Time and the other time effects keep reading the
effects before them, as measured before.

* Image sequences: a gap in the numbering holds the previous frame, as After Effects

After Effects 2026 shows the last existing file across a gap in a sequence's
numbering (case 860: files 1, 2, 4, 5 show frame 2 at frame 3; VERIFY
read-back). EffectCraft drew colour bars there. The media pool now holds the
previous file (Footage::sequence_file_held); colour bars remain only where no
file precedes the frame. Missing-frame reports on import are unchanged.

* Review: keyed Orientation uses LINEAR_SIDE_INFLUENCE for linear sides; real NaN assert

evaluate_orientation still gave a linear side (and the unreachable missing-key fallback)
1/3 influence while segment_value, side_ease and the Lottie export use
LINEAR_SIDE_INFLUENCE (1/6), so a keyed Orientation next to an eased key moved on a
different curve than every other property (CodeRabbit on #1876). New test:
orientation_linear_side_next_to_an_eased_side_matches_a_scalar (both directions).
The always-true NaN assert in keyed_orientation_slerps_as_after_effects now checks that
a non-finite key comes back as given; Property::value_at says why the match_id
"orientation" routing is safe.

* Format keyframe orientation test (cargo fmt)

* Move the image-sequence gap change out of this branch

The gap change (hold the previous file instead of colour bars) reverses
#297's documented behaviour and goes to its own PR, as requested in review.
pool.rs, sequence.rs, the footage test and docs/footage.md / docs/agents.md
are back to main.
