Wire the develop panels through globals, so a second copy is one line

Every panel in the develop column declared its inputs and its callbacks and
had `app.slint` bind each one to a property or a callback on the window root.
That is fine while a panel is drawn once. N9 draws them a second time, in the
portrait dock, and the wiring is what would have to be copied: `MaskPanel`
alone ran to forty lines of forwarding, and a callback added to one copy and
not the other compiles, renders, and simply does nothing on the layout nobody
was looking at.

So the wiring moved to Slint globals. A panel reads the global and calls the
global; Rust hooks the global instead of the window; and the instantiation in
the column is now the panel's name and a pair of braces — every one of the ten
children of the column, with no property that differs by placement left to
supply.

There is a global per panel family rather than one for all of them, and the
reason is an import cycle. Each panel's model struct — `ParamRow`, `MaskRow`,
`HistogramView` — is declared in the panel's own file, so a single global
holding `[MaskRow]` and `[ParamRow]` would have to live in a file importing
`masks.slint` and `adjust.slint` while both imported the global back, which
Slint rejects. Breaking that needs six model declarations relocated, which is a
change to the data model and not to the plumbing this is about. A global beside
the panel it serves also lets each name drop the prefix it was carrying only
because the window root is one flat namespace: `root.spot-radius` is
`Repair.radius`, and `root.peaking-on` is `Peaking.showing`.

`session.slint` is new and holds the two facts every family needs and none of
them owns: whether there is an open photograph to edit, and which mode the view
is in, with the three readings of the mode derived once instead of at each of
the dozen places that tested one. `ViewMode` moves there from `adjust.slint`,
where it was only ever a lodger.

Nothing on screen changes. What is not here: the tool rail and the status strip
still take their properties at the instantiation, because they are drawn once
and N9 does not copy them; the preset sheet's own state stays on the window,
because the library grid opens the same sheet and a global cannot bind the
window's state — which is why `Transfer.open-presets` is handled in
`presets.rs`, beside the summary it already had to compute.
