The folder connector declares `LocalEtags`, which means the engine walks
the whole library on every scan with no pruning. That is the honest
capability, and the argument for it being affordable was so far an
assertion about `stat` versus `PROPFIND`.
`--example scan` runs the real path — `dr_sync::scan` over the connector,
then a ranged read of the kind the thumbnail worker makes. Read-only; it
never writes into the folder it is pointed at.
2,299 images across 233 directories in 137 ms, and 380 across 13 in
29 ms. Against 34.1 s for 17,185 RAWs over WebDAV *with* pruning
available. Recorded in docs/storage.md §5.2 and ARCH §8.4a, because a
capability trade-off argued from a number nobody measured is the kind
that gets quietly reversed later.
