/*
 * drawlayer realtime worker subsystem
 *
 * Realtime painting now advances in heartbeat batches:
 * - read current layer content from the authoritative full-resolution
 *   `base_patch`,
 * - rasterize a small dab batch into a worker-private scratch patch,
 * - copy only the damaged area back into `base_patch`,
 * - publish one regular pipeline refresh before continuing.
 *
 * This keeps base-patch ownership authoritative while avoiding long stretches
 * where rasterization and pipeline refresh starve each other.
