fix: persistence is the trace's own phosphor, not a density behind a stroke
The plotter now deposits every acquisition -- the newest included -- into one grid per trace and
draws no solid trace over it, each grid in that trace's colour and with a one-sweep ceiling (its own
commit, **1b8b55d**). This side needed almost no change of its own, because the colour was already
the trace's and the trace's colour is `RowSet::signal_color()` -- the invariants' one route -- but the
figures it reads back are now per trace:
- **The ceiling is left at the library's default of one sweep**, no longer derived from the fade.
Deriving it from the steady state is the gain offset the user reported between the latest
acquisition and the persistent image; a signal crossing the same place every acquisition now settles
at the trace's colour, at full strength, and the newest sweep reads as the trace it is a picture of.
- **`cells`/`grid_bytes` are the sum over the row's traces** -- one grid each, a trace with no series
holding none -- and both the probe and the exit dump carry `traces=` beside `rows=`. That is what
makes the per-signal memory figure read: **556 537 cells and 2.2 MB per signal**, at 8904600 bytes
over the four one-signal rows of the probe's run.
The probes, re-read on this build (the `verification.md` command, `--rate 500000 --batch 1000`):
[density-probe] off enabled=0 ... rows=0 traces=0 cells=0 ink=0.0 peak=0.0000
[density-probe] on enabled=1 ... rows=4 traces=4 cells=2226150 ink=226786.0 peak=1.0000
[density-probe] step-acquisitions ... peak=1.5000
[density-probe] time-before ... peak=2.1359
[density-probe] step-time ... ratio=0.367879
[density-probe] frame cost: tick 0.62 -> 6.96 ms (184/23 frames), draw 2.02 -> 6.16 ms (177/18)
[udpscope] density: frames=748 rows=4 traces=4 cells=2226150 grid_bytes=8904600 ink=489400.2 peak=2.2 upload_bytes=2226150
`on` `peak=1.0000`, `step-acquisitions` `peak=1.5000` and `step-time` `ratio=0.367879` are the legs
that were expected, unchanged; the *draw* mean is now **below** the run before the split (2.02 -> 6.16
against 2.09 -> 20.91), because the solid traces are no longer drawn over the image.
Docs updated with it: the trigger manual page (`persistence` is the trace, one image per signal, the
newest included), the README's persistence section, `invariants-trigger-and-pinning.md` (five rules,
the ceiling and the no-stroke rule among them), `verification.md` and `probe-readings.md` (the lines
above), the trigger panel's comment and tooltips, and the plotter submodule.
`cmake --build build --clean-first -j4`: **0 errors, the documented three warnings** (two
`MathNode::source`, one `-Woverlength-strings` at 12352); `make -C build test-ui` **13 ok**;
`make -C build test-help` **green** (15 pages); the self-check **0 `Gtk-WARNING`/`Gtk-CRITICAL`** and
`gtk warnings: 0`, two `buffer allocated:` lines.
