Victor Kuznetsov c858006e93 feat(visible): auto fill prefers LaMa > MI-GAN > cv2, warn on cv2 fallback
The auto backend now resolves best-first: LaMa (highest quality, recovers the
textured/structured backgrounds the classical fill smears) > MI-GAN > cv2. Both
learned backends share the same onnxruntime availability check, so auto cannot
tell them apart and always prefers the better one; a memory-tight deployment
that cannot afford LaMa's ~4.7 GB peak pins MI-GAN explicitly via
`--backend migan` / `backend="migan"` (the deployment's call, not the library's).
cv2 stays the no-deps floor and now emits a one-time quality warning when auto
falls back to it, since it smears texture/structure.

Motivated by a v0.12.1 reverse-alpha vs 0.14 localize->fill head-to-head:
reverse-alpha recovered structured backgrounds more cleanly than any inpaint;
LaMa closes most of that gap, MI-GAN can ghost/hallucinate, cv2 is weakest.
doubao/jimeng removal is identical between versions; gemini strict coverage is
4pp lower (all recovered via assume_ai) with cleaner clearance and no
outside-box damage.
