Call the reference curve what it is, and drop wording that reads as copying

The view transform's second curve is the DNG SDK's published reference
rendering — the ACR3 default curve applied by RefBaselineRGBTone — so
it is the "DNG Reference" curve in the panel, D21 and the code, not a
name borrowed from another product. Comments and docs that justified a
choice by another editor doing it ("as their Amount", "so a
photographer arriving from it finds the name") now give the actual
reason. The Vivid presets no longer describe themselves as reaching
for another editor's look; they are DarkRoom's own.

Factual mentions stay: which program wrote the library's DNGs, what
was measured against, and preset import. camera-profiles.md gains §15,
on starting a photograph from the edit it already carries.
