Packaged `sprimo-tauri` sprite rendering breaks after pack switch; default switch errors and
scaling stops applying.

## Summary

In packaged runtime, sprite display is incorrectly split/tiled, switching to `default` can fail,
and scaling becomes ineffective after the error.

## Reproduction Steps

1. Run packaged `sprimo-tauri.exe` from ZIP extract.
2. Open settings window.
3. Switch character between `ferris` and `default`.
4. Observe main overlay rendering and debug output.
5. Change scale slider.

## Expected Result

- Sprite sheet is split into the correct frame grid regardless of image resolution.
- Pack switching works for both `ferris` and `default`.
- Scale changes continue to apply after pack changes.

## Actual Result

- Main overlay shows incorrectly split/tiled sprite sheet.
- Pack switch can produce runtime error and break subsequent behavior.
- Scale update stops working reliably after the error.

## Root Cause Analysis

1. Existing splitting logic relied on fixed pixel frame metadata that did not generalize to
   packaged `sprite.png` dimension variants.
2. Pack metadata inconsistency:
- `assets/sprite-packs/ferris/manifest.json` used duplicated `id` (`default`), causing pack
  identity ambiguity.
3. Settings/runtime flow then entered an unstable state after pack switch failures.
4. Renderer reload lifecycle in tauri UI was unsafe:
- `PixiPetRenderer::dispose` performed duplicate teardown (`ticker.destroy` + `app.destroy`),
  which could trigger runtime `TypeError` during pack reload.
- Renderer replacement disposed previous renderer before new renderer creation succeeded, leaving
  the view in a broken/cropped state on creation failures.
5. Chroma-key conversion tolerance removed most `#FF00FF` background but still left magenta fringe
   on anti-aliased edges.
6. Scale fit used repeated position deltas and caused directional drift during repeated resizing.
7. API mismatch in tauri window module:
- runtime used `getCurrentWindow().currentMonitor()` but this API version exposes monitor lookup as
  module function (`currentMonitor`), causing `TypeError` and skipping window fit.
8. Scale position math mixed physical window metrics (`outerPosition`/`innerSize`) with logical
   set operations (`LogicalSize`/`LogicalPosition`), reintroducing cumulative drift in some DPI
   contexts.
9. Ferris background keying needed adaptive key detection; fixed `#FF00FF` assumptions were still
   too brittle for packaged atlas variants.
10. Scale-path physical positioning used non-integer coordinates in `setPosition`, triggering
    runtime arg errors (`expected i32`) and bypassing window fit updates.
11. Monitor-fit cap remained too optimistic for large frame packs, so max scale could still exceed
    practical visible bounds and appear clipped.
12. Ferris/demogorgon packaged backgrounds are gradient-magenta (not exact `#FF00FF`), requiring a
    border-connected magenta-family mask instead of exact-key assumptions.

## Fix Plan

1. Introduce generic splitter policy for `sprite.png`:
- fixed topology: `8` columns x `7` rows
- derive frame size from actual image dimensions
- keep chroma-key background handling (`#FF00FF`) in renderer
2. Validate animation frame indices against fixed frame count (`56`) for `sprite.png`.
3. Ensure pack apply path validates atlas geometry before committing `SetSpritePack`.
4. Fix ferris manifest ID uniqueness.

## Implementation Notes

Implemented:

1. `crates/sprimo-tauri/src/main.rs`
- Added `sprite.png`-specific frame derivation (`8x7`) from PNG dimensions.
- Added PNG header dimension decoding utility.
- Added animation frame index validation against fixed `56` frames for `sprite.png`.
- Applied validation in both `load_active_sprite_pack` and `set_sprite_pack`.

2. `assets/sprite-packs/ferris/manifest.json`
- Changed manifest `id` from `default` to `ferris`.

3. `docs/SPRITE_PACK_SCHEMA.md`
- Documented Tauri `sprite.png` override behavior and 8x7 derived frame policy.

4. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/renderer/pixi_pet.ts`
- Made renderer disposal idempotent and removed duplicate ticker destruction.
- Delayed DOM canvas replacement until atlas load succeeds.
- Improved chroma-key edge handling with soft alpha + magenta spill suppression.

5. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/main.tsx`
- Made pack reload transactional (keep old renderer until new renderer creation succeeds).
- Improved fit-window flow so scale apply continues after reload retries.
- Added targeted diagnostics for reload failures.
6. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/main.tsx`
- Changed scaling anchor to window center and clamped resized window position within current
  monitor bounds.
7. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/renderer/pixi_pet.ts`
- Replaced tolerance-only chroma key with border-connected `#FF00FF` background flood-fill removal
  and localized edge halo suppression.
8. `crates/sprimo-tauri/capabilities/default.json`
- Added `core:window:allow-current-monitor` permission for monitor bounds clamping.
9. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/main.tsx`
- switched monitor lookup to module-level `currentMonitor()` with safe fallback so window scaling
  still applies even if monitor introspection is unavailable.
10. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/renderer/pixi_pet.ts`
- added fallback global key cleanup when border-connected background detection is too sparse.
11. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/main.tsx`
- moved scale resizing and positioning to physical units (`PhysicalSize`/`PhysicalPosition`) and
  monitor selection at window-center point (`monitorFromPoint`).
12. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/renderer/pixi_pet.ts`
- added adaptive border-derived key color selection with fallback key cleanup pass.
13. `scripts/package_windows.py`
- tauri packaging now explicitly rebuilds UI bundle to avoid stale embedded `dist` output.
14. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/main.tsx`
- enforced integer physical positioning and monitor work-area size clamping to prevent set-position
  arg failures and large-scale clipping.
15. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/renderer/pixi_pet.ts`
- switched ferris cleanup to hue/saturation/value magenta-band masking with connected background
  removal and stronger fallback cleanup.
16. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/main.tsx`
- added stricter monitor work-area guard (`WINDOW_WORKAREA_MARGIN`) in both scale-cap and resize
  clamp paths to prevent large-pack clipping at high scales.
17. `frontend/tauri-ui/src/renderer/pixi_pet.ts`
- added deterministic border-connected strong-magenta flood-fill cleanup pass so non-`#FF00FF`
  gradient backgrounds are removed consistently in packaged ferris/demogorgon atlases.
