Miguel Ángel 3e5be0e8c3 fix(studio): read the rotate property when measuring an element's angle (#3163)
* fix(studio): read the rotate property when measuring an element's angle

Turning an element with Studio's rotate handle left every piece of overlay
chrome square across it: the selection box, the crop outline and the child
outlines all drew upright while the element underneath was clearly rotated.

The handle writes the CSS `rotate` property. `rotate` is an individual
transform property, not part of `transform`, so `getComputedStyle(el).transform`
reports nothing for it and both places that measure an element's angle — the
overlay geometry and the crop frame — read the element as upright.

Both now read `rotate` alongside `transform` and compose them the way CSS
does, individual properties first. A rotation about any axis but z has no
single in-plane angle, so it reports nothing and the caller keeps its
axis-aligned fallback rather than drawing chrome at a plausible wrong angle.

* fix(studio): stop the crop outline refusing the transforms GSAP writes

The crop outline still drew square on a rotated element after the rotate-
property fix, because it refused the transform outright: it accepted only
`matrix(...)`, and GSAP writes `matrix3d(...)` for an ordinary 2D move or spin
(force3D). A composition that mirrors an element writes one with a negative z
scale, and the negative determinant that follows was refused too.

Both are ordinary planar transforms. The outline now reads the same 2D
projection the rest of the chrome takes through DOMMatrix, and sizes a
flipped element from the magnitude of its determinant. Only a perspective
term still falls back, because that is where the mapping stops being affine
and no single angle describes it.

The test that asserted "a 3D matrix means give up" asserted the bug: its
fixture was the identity written as matrix3d, which is as planar as a
transform gets. It now checks the behaviour that replaced it, alongside the
perspective case, which still falls back.

* fix(studio): draw the crop outline at the angle the element paints under

Selecting a text layer inside a rotated card drew its crop outline across the
text at roughly a right angle. The outline read the element's own transform,
but what the user sees is that composed with every ancestor's — the layer
carries its own spin and its parent turns it again.

It now walks to the composition root and composes each level, the element's
`rotate` property before its `transform` and an ancestor outside its child,
which is the order CSS applies them in. Nothing transformed anywhere still
falls back to the caller's axis-aligned rect, since that comes from real
layout and describes the element exactly.

The chrome test stubbed getComputedStyle to answer "rotated 30deg" for every
node in the document, so composing read the same turn once per ancestor. The
stub now answers per element, which is what it always meant.

* fix(studio): stop the dev server reloading the page on every canvas edit

A composition lives under this package's root, so Vite's HMR saw a write to
one as an html page dependency changing and full-reloaded the browser. That
reload is the flash after every edit in the canvas: the whole app remounts,
taking the preview iframe with it.

The decision was never Vite's to make. Studio already knows whether a write
was its own — that is what the write receipt is for — and refreshes the
preview itself when it needs to. Vite's watcher now ignores the project data,
and the dev plugin watches it on a watcher of its own, announcing changes as
hf:file-change exactly as before.

Measured on a drag: Vite full reloads went from one per edit to none, and the
receipt now reports 'suppressed: own write token' where it previously never
saw a matching path.

* refactor(studio): compose an element's transform in one walk, not two

Review: the crop frame hand-composed ancestor matrices while the geometry
file did the same walk through DOMMatrix. Both were right, but the next
individual transform property CSS grows — `translate`, `scale` — would have to
land in both, and a miss puts the crop outline back at the wrong angle while
the selection box draws the right one.

The walk now lives in one place and takes the arithmetic as a parameter. The
geometry file keeps DOMMatrix, because it goes on to transform corner points
and needs the translation; the crop frame keeps plain 2D components, because
it only needs an angle and a scale. Which transforms count, and in what order,
is stated once.

Also from review: the nested case was verified by hand only, so the composed
walk is now covered on both sides — a child inside a rotated parent reports
the angle it paints at, the parent's rotation alone when the child has none,
and the walk stopping at the composition root. And `hasAttribute?.` was dead
on a narrowed HTMLElement; it only survived because the crop test's fake
element was not one. The fake now models an element and the guard is gone.
