Centre the photo roll on the frame it opens with

The roll brought the open photograph into view by the shortest move,
which is right for stepping along it and wrong for the first look: a
frame near either end of the loaded window arrived hard against an edge,
with nothing on that side to give it any context.

It now centres on the first settle of a develop session and steps
minimally after that. A one-shot request that the strip itself clears --
the only thing that knows the request has been honoured is the code
honouring it -- rather than something recomputed on creation, because the
strip is created far more often than a session begins: leaving develop
for Settings and coming back rebuilds it, and re-centring then would undo
a roll the user had scrolled by hand.

Raised on the two ways into develop from the grid, and not on a pick
along the roll, which is a step within a session rather than the start of
one.

Centring is clamped to the ends: the third photograph of a window cannot
be centred without scrolling empty space in beside it, and a strip that
begins with a gap reads as broken rather than as centred.

A finger on a photograph might be starting a scroll, and for the first half-second the grid assumes it is. Holding says otherwise, and the ring is the grid saying it heard — from there the drag cannot be lost to a scroll. A mouse never waits: the cursor is precise enough that a sideways drag is unambiguous from the first pixel.

This replaced a double tap, which had no visible state and could take forty photographs by accident. The run is resolved by the catalog rather than by what is on screen, so the grid can scroll between the two taps — the ranges that hurt on a tablet are longer than a screenful, which is exactly where a finger sweep runs out.

A tap opens; a tap that *moved* does not. Travel is what separates a deliberate tap from a hand brushing past, and it is the only thing that does: the two are the same length. An earlier version required the finger to dwell 120 ms instead, and that rejected ordinary taps — a real tap is often quicker than a brush.
