perf: configurable scan speed for picture mode (up to 16x faster)

[codingfrog]

Summary

Picture scanning in dupeGuru processes full-resolution images (e.g. 4000x3000) one at a time, which makes scanning large photo libraries very slow (~2 images/second).

This PR adds:

• Pre-scaling images before block extraction — most of the pixel data is thrown away during block averaging anyway, so processing a 450x450 image gives nearly identical results at a fraction of the cost
• Parallel image preparation using ThreadPoolExecutor across all CPU cores instead of sequential single-threaded processing
• SQLite WAL mode for better concurrent cache access during parallel writes
• A user-facing "Scan speed" preference in the Picture preferences dialog with three modes:
  • Accurate (slow) — no pre-scaling, processes full-resolution images (original behavior)
  • Balanced (recommended) — pre-scale to 450px, good accuracy/speed trade-off
  • Turbo — pre-scale to 150px, fastest option for large collections

Each mode uses a separate cache file, so switching modes doesn't require re-scanning the entire collection.

Benchmark

Tested on real photos (mix of 12-24MP JPEGs):

Mode	Speed	Relative
Accurate	~2 img/s	1x (baseline, original behavior)
Balanced	~33 img/s	~16x faster
Turbo	~50 img/s	~25x faster

Changes

• core/pe/matchblock.py — parallel preparation + prescale multiplier plumbing
• core/pe/cache_sqlite.py — enable WAL mode
• qt/pe/photo.py — configurable pre-scaling in block extraction
• core/pe/scanner.py — pass picture_prescale option through
• core/app.py — separate cache files per prescale mode
• qt/pe/preferences_dialog.py — add "Scan speed" combo box
• qt/preferences.py — persist picture_prescale preference
• qt/preferences_dialog.py — improved Filter Hardness enable/disable logic
• qt/app.py — wire preference to model options
• qt/me/preferences_dialog.py, qt/se/preferences_dialog.py — use shared _setFilterHardnessEnabled()

Test plan

• Scan a folder of pictures with each mode (Accurate, Balanced, Turbo) and verify duplicates are found correctly
• Switch between modes and verify each uses its own cache (no re-scan prompt)
• Verify the preference persists across application restarts
• Verify Filter Hardness slider + labels are properly grayed out when scan type doesn't support it
• Run existing test suite (pytest)
