feat: performance overhaul, client-side report, result cache, streaming cards, UX polish

BREAKING: Remove server-side matplotlib report (/api/report deleted)

Performance:
- Replace matplotlib colormapping with cv2.applyColorMap (10-30x faster)
- Replace skimage.resize with cv2.resize (~5x faster)
- JPEG encoding for browser display thumbnails (3-5x faster)
- ThreadPoolExecutor for parallel XAI method execution
- torch.set_num_threads for multi-core CPU utilization
- Remove matplotlib and scikit-image dependencies

Architecture:
- Add SHA256 LRU result cache (50 entries) preventing double inference
- Add /api/predict endpoint for fast verdict-only calls
- /api/analyze now runs XAI + all 5 forensics in parallel, caches results
- /api/submit_run reads from cache — zero re-inference
- Delete report.py and /api/report — replaced by client-side html2canvas

Frontend:
- Streaming card updates: skeleton loaders fill in real-time as methods complete
- Client-side PNG report via html2canvas (instant, zero server cost)
- Heatmap/overlay toggle on each result card
- Human-readable method insight blurbs per card
- Tab renamed: Quick Analysis → Run Analysis
- Rich forensics tool descriptions with what-to-look-for guidance
- Expanded Guide tab with XAI + forensics reference
- Pre-emptive forensics: cached results auto-populate Forensics tab

Bug fixes:
- Wire drag-and-drop events on upload zone
- Add clipboard paste support (Ctrl+V)
- Debounce (300ms) on all slider inputs
- Gate tab auto-trigger on analysisComplete flag
- Hide submit panel in clearImage()
- Fix button label restore in generateReport()
- Round compute_time_ms to integer in templates
- Send image_hash to /api/submit_run for cache lookup
