* ui: bake jpeg exif orientation into uploaded images
stb_image in mtmd ignores exif metadata, so rotated smartphone photos
reach the model with raw pixel orientation. The webui now reads the
exif orientation tag at send time and feeds it into the existing
capImageDataURLSize canvas pass: the browser applies the rotation when
decoding, so capped images come out upright for free, and images under
the cap threshold get a single plain redraw when orientation > 1.
At most one re-encode ever happens per image. Upright jpegs with
capping disabled pass through untouched, bit perfect.
Adds jpeg-orientation.ts with a minimal exif parser working on a
bounded base64 prefix (both endianness, returns 1 on any malformed
input) and unit tests against handcrafted jpeg byte streams.
* ui: move jpeg exif constants into lib/constants
* ui: add browser test for jpeg orientation and capping
Covers capImageDataURLSize end to end in chromium with real Pillow
generated jpeg fixtures across exif orientations 1/3/5/6/8: upright
quadrant colors checked pixel-wise, expected dimensions with and
without capping, no orientation tag left in the output, and strict
passthrough when nothing needs rewriting.
