Turn the demo app into a Canon 450D intervalometer
Some checks failed
CI / build-and-deploy (push) Has been cancelled

Replaces the gPhoto2 demo UI (live view beside the raw config tree) with a
timelapse intervalometer. The home screen carries only what changes between
runs - interval, frame count, start delay, start/stop, countdown, progress
and a log - while every camera setting moves into a settings drawer.

- intervalometer.js: schedules frames on an absolute grid (start + n *
  interval) so transfer time doesn't accumulate as drift over a long run. An
  overrun logs and fires as soon as the camera is free rather than dropping a
  frame; three consecutive failures abort.
- storage.js: frames stream into a folder via the File System Access API,
  named for capture time (20260801-172713_00001.JPG) so sorting by name is
  sorting by time. Falls back to downloads. Also holds the screen wake lock,
  since background tabs get their timers throttled.
- config-utils.js: config tree lookups, shutter speed parsing, and bulb
  capability detection (bulb toggle or Canon eosremoterelease).
- home.js: sequence controls plus a read-only exposure readout and pre-flight
  warnings when the interval can't fit the exposure and transfer.
- settings.js / index.js: app prefs and the full config tree behind a drawer.
  Config polling now only runs while that drawer is open, leaving the USB link
  to the captures during a sequence.

Live view stays up between frames and steps aside only while the shutter
fires, which is what the EOS driver requires; it recovers afterwards with
backoff instead of hammering a busy camera.

Deployed as an assets-only Cloudflare Worker. The WASM is built with pthreads
and allocates a shared WebAssembly.Memory, so _headers reproduces the COOP/COEP
pair from serve.json - without cross-origin isolation the app fails to start.
