Forget the face runs made on proxies too small to see a face

The floor added in the previous commit stops this happening again; it
does nothing about the 1,824 images in the reference library that
already carry a face_index row written against a proxy of 1024 or less.
Those rows are why the damage is permanent rather than merely past. The
work list is "images with no row for this model", so an image examined
against a 1024px proxy -- 0.078 faces per image, nine in ten finding
nothing -- is indistinguishable from one examined properly, and no
later pass will ever offer it to the detector again.

V12 deletes exactly those markers, and nothing else. The faces those
runs did find stay in place and keep drawing the People screen until a
better pass replaces them, and record_detections re-attaches the user's
confirmed names across that replacement by box overlap, so a library
somebody has spent an evening naming does not lose that evening. The
cost is a re-fetch of the affected images.

Deleting the marker rather than teaching the work-list query to select
on source_edge, which was the other option and is worse. A standing
`source_edge < floor` predicate never lets go: an image whose largest
embedded preview is genuinely smaller than the floor would be re-fetched
on every sweep for ever, because the next pass cannot do any better than
the last one did. A one-off deletion gives each affected image exactly
one more attempt through the good path and then lets the ordinary
"has a row" rule settle it.

The threshold is written out in the SQL instead of referring to
dr_face::MIN_DETECT_EDGE. A migration has to keep meaning what it meant
when it ran; binding it to a constant someone may raise later would
quietly change what an old catalog gets migrated to.
