Adds PdfBuilder.linkRect() for /Subtype /Link annotations with a
/Dest pointing at another page's destination. TOC entries record a
target placeholder that the per-step loop fills in once it knows
which page the step landed on, so clicking a Contents line jumps the
reader straight to that step.
Lets users record author/co-authors/organization for a guide via a new
"Guide information…" dialog; this metadata renders below the title on
the PDF cover (title now sits above the accent rule). PDF export also
paginates so each step fits its own page where possible, keeps a
step's title/image/lead-in together, and forces the next step onto a
fresh page after an oversized step overflows. Exports now run in a
forked helper process so large guides no longer freeze the UI.

- The canvas Undo/Redo buttons now also undo/redo step deletion
(single or multi-select), restoring the step's data, images, and
position in the order. Backed by a new step:restore IPC call and
GuideStore.restoreStep().
- Remove "Finish capture session" from the capture menu. The
top-right recording bar in the guide editor is now the only place
to start/stop recording, with its toggle relabeled
"Start recording" / "Stop recording".
writeDescription/emitBlocks rendered each word as a separately positioned
Tj, advancing by our approximate average-glyph-width estimate — which is
much wider than real space/character widths, producing "This is bold"
style gaps. Render each line as one continuous text object instead
(PdfBuilder.textRun), so consecutive Tj operators advance using the
viewer's real font metrics.

PDF exports now preserve bold/italic/links/lists/blockquotes from the
description editor (via a new HTML block/run parser) instead of flattening
to plain text. Literal "[text](url)" links inserted by the editor's Link
button are converted to real <a> tags before rendering. Tabs and common
"smart typography" characters (smart quotes, dashes, ellipsis, bullet) are
mapped to their WinAnsiEncoding glyphs instead of rendering as "?".

panX/panY now represent 0..1 fractions of the pannable range rather
than absolute image positions, so the slider's full travel always
covers edge-to-edge regardless of zoom level. Pan Y is inverted so
sliding right moves the view up. Updated both the editor canvas and
core/raster.js export so they stay in sync.

Per request: clicks of the same button closer together than
capture.clickDebounceMs (default 200ms) now collapse into a single step, so
accidental fast/double clicks don't each become a step. It is a leading-edge
debounce measured from the last *accepted* click, so a run of fast clicks
can't push the next deliberate click out — two clicks spaced beyond the
window (e.g. the reported 400-500ms apart) always register.
Replaces the prior 8ms duplicate-delivery suppression (subsumed by the
window). Configurable; 0 captures every click.
Tests (the point of this change is that it can't silently regress):
- 13 behavioral unit tests in capture.test.js that drive real onOsClick
calls with controlled timestamps and assert which clicks survive — the
reported 400/450/500ms cases, sub-window collapse, the 200ms boundary,
per-button independence, configurability, debounce=0, last-accepted (not
last-dropped) reference, session reset, and a full onOsClick -> queue ->
store integration check. No keyword/comment assertions.
- A fourth end-to-end self-test scenario (burst of 40ms clicks collapses to
1; three 300ms-apart clicks each register => 4 total). The marker/drain
scenarios set debounce to 0 so they keep stressing the frame pipeline.
147 unit tests + all repo checks pass.

The first screenshot of a session was late while every later one was fine.
Cause: on 'Start recording' the window hid first and the capture backend
started warming up after — creating worker, getUserMedia, first frame takes
~1s. A click in that gap found no buffered frame and took the post-click
fresh shot.
armRecording() now warms the recorder while the window is still visible and
only hides once frames are buffering (with a brief post-hide settle so the
first frame shows the user's screen, not the dismissed app window). Verified
end to end with a new self-test scenario that clicks 250ms after start: the
first click is now served a pre-click frame instead of a post-click shot.

Real-world recording now saves every click with exact markers; the only
remaining nit was screenshots feeling a touch late. Add a configurable
click-lead (capture.clickLeadMs, default 120ms) that targets the screen
just before the hook timestamp, and tighten the stream sampling cadence to
50ms so a frame near that target always exists. Verified end to end: frames
now land ~120-160ms before the click (was 25-57ms), markers stay at 0.00%
offset, and the 8-click burst still saves all 8.
Also document the milestone in docs/CHANGELOG.md and remove an accidental
paste of Gitea commit-page text from it.

Implements the architecture change from ai_prompts/prompt3.md:
- New app/click-frames.js: shared timestamped frame ring + strict
click-to-frame pairing (never a frame whose grab started after the
click); legacy slack behavior kept behind capture.strictClickFrames=false.
- New stream capture backend (app/stream-backend.js + hidden worker
window): per-display desktop media streams sampled into ring buffers
and PNG-encoded entirely off the main process, so click delivery is
never starved by capture work. Auto-degrades to the legacy in-process
frame loop when streams cannot start or the worker stops answering.
- Clicks are paired with their frame at event time (eager pairing in
enqueueClickCapture); only the storing is serialized, so slow encodes
cannot skew later clicks in a fast burst.
- Linux watcher: restored event-time root coordinates from
xinput test-xi2 and merge raw/regular twin events structurally.
- Replaced the 40ms time debounce with source-aware duplicate
suppression: fast legitimate clicks are never dropped.
- New app/coords.js: physical-to-DIP conversion with multi-monitor and
scale-factor handling; Windows keeps screenToDipPoint.
- STEPFORGE_CLICK_SELFTEST end-to-end hook: 3/3 clicks become steps via
the stream backend with 0.00% marker offset on this host.
- Tests rewritten/added: strict selection, coords, stream backend,
Linux coordinate parsing, twin merge, burst clicking (126 passing).

The session previously only listened for the global hotkey, which is
unreliable under WSLg/Wayland — users got one screenshot and nothing
more. Sessions now layer three triggers:
- click-capture via OS adapters (xinput test-xi2 on X11, PowerShell
GetAsyncKeyState polling on Windows), debounced, ignoring clicks on
StepForge itself
- interval auto-capture (3/5/10 s) as the always-works fallback,
enabled by default when click detection is unavailable
- the existing global hotkey, plus a manual Shoot button
The REC bar now shows live count + active trigger with Shoot / Auto /
Pause / Finish. New captures and added steps are selected in the
editor (explicit reload(stepId) wins over a surviving selection).
Capture self-test hook (STEPFORGE_CAPTURE_SELFTEST) verifies 3x
hotkey-path captures and interval capture end-to-end.
