--pixels adds aggregate, non-reconstructable pixel statistics (block-DCT
histograms with Benford deviation, high-pass noise stats, FFT band
energies and CFA peaks, ELA stats, gradient and color histograms) plus
per-section timing for pipeline latency planning. --pixels-full adds the
privacy-lifting artifacts behind an explicit flag (perceptual hash,
128px thumbnail, coarse ELA/noise-residual/FFT-phase maps). Expensive
maps are computed once and shared between the scalar and artifact paths
(2.2x speedup vs the first split implementation). numpy is required only
for the pixel modes; the metadata-only mode stays numpy-free.
