Record the new Best in the spec and the manual
denoise.md §15: why Best became one network, how it compares with the mixture and Medium on real photographs and the chart, the candidates that fell short, the file names, the saved-edit numbering, and the timings on the 3050 -- 0.51-0.54 s whole-frame, 0.95 s in tiles, against 2.60 s for the mixture in tiles. The manual lists Bilinear, Fast and Best, says an edit made with Medium opens with Best, and gives the new time; Medium's close-up goes.
