dtourolle d98dc2855a refactor(bench): SuperHero replaces Road to Bali as the reference film
Bali was chosen because the TRECVID DVU set ships character mugshots, but
its reference crops are unusable at scale: median detected face 27 px
against a 69 px maximum, so every reference was upscaled 4x or more past
what the embedder was trained for (AR-011). A 66 px floor left 2 of 69
references; no threshold exists that both keeps the faces in distribution
and leaves enough of them to calibrate.

SuperHero is 69 px median and 241 px max. Its gallery builds at a 66 px
floor with 14 references over 5 characters, and calibrates on its own
(a=15.2867 b=-4.98633, 100% train accuracy) instead of borrowing constants.

Measured on the fused 17-minute film, one stream rather than per-scene
clips so presence windows cross real scene boundaries as SR-002 intends:
precision 1.00, recall 0.65, F1 0.79 — 13 true positives, 0 false
positives, 7 misses. Every out-of-gallery character was declined rather
than forced onto a nearest match. The misses are the short scenes (14 s,
38 s, 27 s), consistent with per-track accumulation needing sightings.

- build_gallery gains --min-face-px, filtering the *detected face* rather
  than the crop. The DVU images are scene crops, not mugshots, so crop
  dimensions say nothing about face scale. A poisoned reference is
  permanent in a way a bad frame is not: it corrupts every future match
  against that identity.
- scripts/fetch_dvu.sh fetches mugshots, scene graphs and segmentation for
  any DVU film. NIST names the same film three different ways, so KG_DIR
  and KG_FILE are overridable rather than derived. This exists as a script
  because the first copy of this data was assembled ad hoc in /tmp and was
  lost with it, taking the working gallery along.
- Replay fixtures move to the artifact registry: push/pull_artifacts.sh
  gain a replay-fixtures target, and tests/fixtures/dumps/.gitignore keeps
  them out of git. superhero.h5 is ~9 MB and regenerating it needs the
  film, the models and a GPU — none of which CI has. The gallery ships
  with the dumps, since a dump only replays against the gallery it was
  produced with.
- AR-012 and AR-013 coverage is ported onto the new fixture rather than
  dropped with the Bali cases: 12369 assertions, up from 7991, since the
  film is an order of magnitude larger than the clips.

Suite: 15679 assertions, 101 test cases.

# CI never calls a model (see docs/requirements.md, "CI never calls a model"):
# the embedder is impractical on the N100 CI host, so inference happens HERE, on
# a machine with a GPU, and CI consumes the HDF5 dumps as data. Everything
# downstream of embedding — tracking, presence windows, belief accumulation,
# expansion — is cheap CPU maths and replays from these files.
#
# Reproducibility is a requirement, not a nicety. A fixture whose provenance is
# unknown is worse than no fixture, because it will be trusted. Every parameter
# that affects the output is pinned below rather than left to a default, and the
# dumps carry the embedder identity and SHA-256 (GR-004) so a replay cannot be
# silently scored against the wrong gallery.
#
# These are byte-reproducible only because node outputs block rather than drop
# on a full channel (AR-004). Before that fix the same command produced
# different dumps run to run, since what got dropped depended on timing.

# Source: hero/ — SuperHero, from the TRECVID DVU development set. Chosen over
# SuperHero on face scale: Bali reference crops had a median detected face of
# 27 px against a 69 px maximum, so every reference was upscaled far past what
# the embedder was trained for. SuperHero is 69 px median, 241 px max. That matters: derived
# fixtures can be committed, where anything cut from a copyrighted title could
# not live in the repository at all.
