The Preferences row was Linux-only, but PHOTOCRAFT_GPU_ADAPTER and
performance.gpuAdapter were honoured on every platform, so Windows and macOS
could pick a non-default adapter without being tested for it. Ignore the
request off Linux (and in CPU mode, as before), and don't make a launch
standalone for a variable that is ignored there.

With the backend on auto, Linux installed no adapter selector, so wgpu took
the first discrete GPU the driver listed. On a machine with an eGPU, a
laptop dGPU and an iGPU that was not the one the user wanted.
- performance.gpuAdapter: a case-insensitive piece of the adapter's name
(several words must all appear); empty is automatic.
- PHOTOCRAFT_GPU_ADAPTER overrides it for one launch.
- Preferences > Performance > Advanced > GPU adapter lists the adapters the
instance found; a saved adapter that is absent stays listed, marked.
- A missing adapter, or one that can't present to the window, falls back to
the automatic choice with a note in System Info. CPU mode ignores it.
- Shown on Linux only; tested on Linux only. Windows and macOS need their own
work (the startup code honours the setting there, but it is untested).

Progress docs per craftrules standards/progress-docs.md: target-app parity (merges parity-estimate.md), gaps, roadmap with alpha gate, readiness by audience (full / mainstream / essentials) with Opus 5.5 hours, and UI, brush, format, hardware and localization parity docs. docs/parity.md is now docs/parity-checklist.md.
The Windows test failure (file_dialog::tests::save_dialogs_remember_where_each_document_was_last_saved) is pre-existing on main: the test hard-codes POSIX paths.
