Panel appearance now applies to the whole panel, with seven styles: Floating, Capsules, Notch, Edge to edge, Fused islands, Adaptive and Morph.
- Share composition, geometry, and motion through the renderer-independent `ferese-panel` crate, including native materials, input regions, and Settings previews.
- Add the Morph hub with media, calendar, notifications, controls, workspace previews, hover feedback, and attached mode. Keep recording and low-battery status visible and respect window clearance.
- Cache workspace preview geometry, draw thumbnails directly, centralize Morph transitions, and keep rendering settings local to each shell instance.
- Put Record Screen in the Morph header and show the display control only when an external monitor is connected. Update panel documentation, the desktop screenshot, and native check style names.
Local validation included 660 compositor tests, 191 shell tests, isolated preview-cache checks, GPU Morph captures at 1×/1.25×/1.5×, formatting, and Clippy with warnings denied. The final header change passed all 23 Morph tests. Release workflow jobs are skipped for this PR.
Queue popup, modal and notification material geometry and opacity until the matching content buffer commits. Remove event-handler opacity writes that could present material state ahead of content, while preserving compositor dismissal ownership.
Add pending-presentation regression coverage and update the nested shell lifecycle check.
Share window geometry across overview, resize snapshots and retained closes. Advance close handoffs and group retained rendering by stacking position.
Drive shell motion from surface frames, reuse settled widget content, and synchronize notification materials with each card's fade. Replace physical config keys with duration and bounce, and update documentation and regression coverage.
