Bring the README's feature list and "Where it stands" up to the tree

The requirement count is 191, as traceability.md's summary now reads;
the 84% it quotes still rounds from 83.8%.

"Not built" left out two things the matrix lists as untagged and the
outstanding register describes: importing a Lightroom or darktable
catalog (FR-CAT-14) and translations past the launch screen
(NFR-A11Y-1).

The feature paragraphs predated this round: the library now filters and
sets colour labels and consolidates duplicate originals, develop corrects
converging verticals and intersects mask parts, and the keyboard
vocabulary, the help sheet (F1, or "?" in develop) and the bundled
manual it links into had no mention. The version line is left for the
release commit.

**Developing.** Eighteen declared operations fused into one compute
dispatch, plus the neighbourhood work that cannot be: clarity, texture,
capture sharpening, noise reduction, lens correction, spectral film
simulation. Crop and straighten, spot repair, and local adjustments over
masks the model draws — click a subject or a category, then paint, subtract
a gradient, grow or shrink the edge. Focus peaking and a raw histogram for
judging what is recoverable. Named presets; XMP sidecars other editors read.

verified: the per-commit benchmark suite §8 requires exists for everything
that does not need a frame — the catalog, the scan, the thumbnails — and
not yet for the render path, so a regression there fails nothing.
