Γ-W1-T3: staged contour traces draw the curve their exponent defines

New pure curve_tessellate joins the overlay's node vertices through curveMap,
one sample per pixel column; the knot no longer floats off its own trace.

 - `spline_edit` — THE point-editing grammar, and the one place it is written down: left-click grabs a node and adds one in empty space, right-click deletes, control-click toggles hard/smooth. Both spline consumers — the velocity-curve popup and the spline EG overlay — route their mouse-down through `resolveSplineEdit`, so the two cannot drift into two grammars. The endpoint and point-count rules are NOT restated here: `deletePoint` and `addPoint` own them, and the caller applies the resolved action to the curve. Also home to `splineOverlayBox`, the contour's mapping box inside the waveform overlay — the FULL area, no inset, so the drawn contour stays 1:1 with the sample's time axis. Spline points are excluded from `param_taper`'s Shift/Ctrl modifier law like waveform markers are: a point is a normalized position with no displayed unit, and control-click there is already claimed by the hard/smooth toggle above.
 - `curve_popup` — pure curve-popup geometry + dismissal test (FB1): centered sheet over the Sample face — width/height clamps, title row, Close button rect, curve-box rect, outside-sheet dismissal test. Mirror of `overflow_menu`; no LICE or REAPER types.
 - `envelope_overlay` — pure staged-envelope→polyline geometry for the Sample-view overlay (read from `envelope_overlay.h`): maps a `StageEnvelope` to a polyline inside a rect under whichever of TWO layout policies its `EnvKind` selects — an AHDSR draws a bounded param-domain schematic with its release RIGHT-ANCHORED to the canvas edge, an AHD draws 1:1 over the waveform's own time axis — plus a round mid-segment knot on every sloped stage that has a duration. Every vertex clamped in-canvas. Shares the `EnvNode`/`StageEnvelope`/`timeToX`/`levelToY` vocabulary with `envelope_edit` so the drawn handle and its grab region agree pixel-for-pixel. No VST3/REAPER/LICE types at the boundary.
+- `curve_tessellate` — the staged envelope's TRACE, split from `envelope_overlay` on the axis those two already have: that module decides where a node LANDS, this strokes the span BETWEEN two of them. Joins the non-knot vertices with the curve each stage's exponent defines, sampled one point per pixel column, at `start + (end - start) * curveMap(phi)` — the composition `envelopes.h`'s four evaluators use, so a drawn stage and the sound it makes cannot diverge. Node vertices keep their exact integer coordinates (the handles are drawn on them); only the interior samples are sub-pixel. A neutral exponent or a zero level span emits the two endpoints and nothing between, which is the straight stroke drawn before curves existed, vertex for vertex.
 - `envelope_edit` — pure node hit-test + pixel-delta→clamped-param inverse map for the draggable envelope nodes and their curve knots (read from `envelope_edit.h`): `nodeAtPoint` resolves a grab to the nearest node within a pick radius (Chebyshev distance, draw-order tie-break, knots appended last so a coincident endpoint handle wins); `resolveNodeDrag` maps a pixel delta since grab to a new `StageEnvelope` under the same caller-supplied per-param clamp bounds the knobs use — a drag can never produce a param a knob couldn't. Mirror of `card_drag`/`waveform_view`; the inverse of `envelope_overlay`'s params→polyline forward map, so node-drag, knot-drag and knob-edit read/write one shared model and can never diverge.
