Record why Qwen-Image-2.1 is not a regeneration profile

Open weights remove the hosted-only objection to the 2.x line, but the
Diffusers pipeline has no strength or latent noise-mask input and the Qwen
Research License is non-commercial (issue #111).

(issue #111) has open weights, but its Diffusers pipeline uses `image=` only as
reference conditioning and starts the target latents from noise, with no `strength`
or latent noise-mask input. Its Qwen Research License also limits the weights to
non-commercial research and evaluation, so it is not a supported-profile candidate.
