Replace the nested spatial global convolution in fast_psf_accumulator_resolve with a reusable double-precision FFTW linear convolution on the CPU PSF backend.
- Add the private src/fast_psf_fftw.{c,h} module: zero-padded R2C/C2R plans, cached kernel spectrum and planar scratch, exact 1/(Pwidth*Pheight) and 1/N^2 normalization, (R,R) crop, and additive HDR output.
- Keep the previous nested loops as fast_psf_accumulator_resolve_spatial_reference for tests/benchmarks only; it is not a runtime fallback.
- Cache the circular row spans on FastPsfAccumulator and report one-time plan, kernel transform, scratch, and per-frame stage timings.
- Require fftw3_omp for CPU builds; HIP and dummy builds do not link FFTW.
- Namespace test/helper binaries by spacetime and build tag, and reject make test / psf-capture for non-CPU backends.
- Add tests/test_fast_psf_fftw.c (FFTW versus spatial), tests/benchmark_fast_psf_fftw.c, an FFTW CLI smoke check, and the 2026-09-25 benchmark record.
Reuse production catalog mapping and per-worker chunk boundaries to report triangle and spatial distributions without initializing HIP or writing image outputs. Include a protected full-catalog runner and build documentation.
Cooperate across 32 lanes per PSF and use two completion-protected staging slots with complete batch timing. Restore coarse OpenMP event production while serializing shared GPU submissions and direct fallback boundaries.
Add bounded benchmarks, streaming and renderer regressions, and preserve validation evidence and ownership documentation.
