feat(pipeline): forest Right-variant baker (POC flow restyle, productionized)

Right strength curve (level 1-4 -> increasing img2img keyframe strength) is pure
and unit-tested; the restyle engine is a verbatim port of the session-0008 POC
flow_restyle.py (SD img2img keyframes + Farneback optical-flow tweens = calm,
no boiling). torch/diffusers imported lazily so the module + curve test stay light.

"""Offline baker: real flow-stabilized painterly Right-axis variants (scales
design §1/§4).
Productionizes the session-0008 POC (``~/hef-poc/flow_restyle.py``): SD img2img
on KEYFRAMES + Farneback optical-flow warp on in-between frames = a temporally
calm painterly restyle (no per-frame "boiling" — the look the operator approved
in 0008). The one new idea on top of the POC is a **strength curve**: each Right
level 1-4 maps to an increasing keyframe img2img ``strength`` so the four
discrete pre-baked variants form a subtle -> strong dreamlike ramp. Level 0 is
always the raw base (handled by the runtime, not baked here).
The curve (``right_strength_params``) is pure + unit-tested; the rendered media
is verified by eye (like the other ``simulator/setup_*_media.py`` scripts). torch
/ diffusers are imported lazily inside the bake functions so importing this
module (e.g. for the curve test) is fast and dependency-light.
Usage:
.venv/bin/python -m simulator.bake_right_variants [--scale forest]
[--fps 12] [--keyint 24]
Requires: torch + Apple MPS, diffusers, ``stabilityai/sd-turbo`` (cached),
opencv-python, imageio-ffmpeg. ~2.7 min/clip x 4 levels ~= ~11 min local compute.
