Blend: stroke gradients and dashes follow a key path the blend turns - #7465
When a blend starts a key's path at another anchor (an open path clicked at its last anchor, or a closed path turned to another start or reversed to match the other key's winding), the steps read that key's width profile and pen recordings along the turned path, but its stroke gradient and dashes still followed the key's own direction. Steps near that key showed the gradient flipped or shifted and the dashes out of place. The steps now read them along the turned path:
A gradient along the stroke starts where the turned path starts, with a step where the key's own start now falls, and runs the other way on a reversed path. A gradient across the stroke swaps sides on a reversed path. Stops that reflect an even number of times read the same either way and are left as they are. Swatch links on the stops are kept.
Dashes run the other way on a reversed path, and exact dashes start where the turned path starts. A dash pattern restarts on every subpath at one offset, so the offset moves only when every subpath of the key needs the same one.
Two gradients with different stop counts keep a step (two stops at one offset) when the blend resamples them to common stops. Before, the two stops were merged and the step became a smooth ramp.
How the gradient and dashes follow the path is VectorCraft's own rule. docs/mcp.md and docs/target-app-parity.md describe it.
How it was tested
blend::tests::stroke_gradients_and_dashes_turn_with_a_key_path_started_elsewhere (crates/doc/src/blend.rs) covers an open key run from its end with a gradient along and across the stroke and an uneven dash pattern, a closed key started half way round, a reflected gradient, swatch links on a step, a step kept against a gradient of other stops, and two subpaths whose lengths need different dash offsets.
blend::tests::gradients_of_other_stop_counts_keep_their_steps covers resampling a gradient with a step next to a close stop.
Each part of both tests was shown failing with its part of the change taken out.

Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Stroke blends now preserve gradient steps when resampling gradients with different stop counts, including duplicate stops at the same offset.
Gradient tint and process-plate details are retained during resampling.
Along-path gradients and dash patterns adjust when paths are reoriented. Gradients shift at closed-path seams, and reversing a path adjusts gradient direction and dash order as applicable.
Dash offsets shift to the turned start only when subpaths align and corner alignment is disabled.
Documentation
Clarified how stroke properties turn with the path during blending and how gradient steps are preserved.
When a blend starts a key's path at another anchor or runs it the other
way, the steps already read that key's width profile and pen recordings
along the turned path. Its stroke gradient and dashes still followed the
key's own direction, so steps near that key showed them flipped or
shifted.
- A gradient along the path starts where the turned path starts and
runs backwards on a reversed one; a gradient across the path swaps
sides on a reversed one. Stops that reflect an even number of times
are left as they are.
- Dashes run backwards on a reversed path, and exact dashes start where
the turned path starts, when every subpath needs the same offset.
- Two gradients with different stop counts keep a step (two stops at
one offset) when they are resampled to common stops.

Walkthrough
Gradient resampling preserves discontinuities by retaining duplicate stops at step offsets. Stroke reorientation adjusts gradients and dashes based on path direction, closed-path seams, and subpath lengths.
Common gradient stops include duplicate offsets where either gradient steps. Resampling selects the stop after a step. Tests cover differing stop counts and stepped offsets.
Stroke gradient and dash reorientation crates/doc/src/blend.rs, docs/target-app-parity.md
Stroke reorientation uses subpath lengths to adjust dashes and gradients. Tests cover path reversals, closed-path seams, reflected gradients, and differing subpath offsets. Documentation describes gradient reorientation.
This change makes stroke gradients and dashes follow a turned key path during blending, and it keeps gradient steps when stop counts differ. The earlier review findings have been addressed and the new behavior has regression tests. I see no remaining merge-blocking risk.

The description explains what changed and why, with concrete behavior for gradients, dashes, and resampling. It lists tests added and reported results, and it links the related docs. The template's "What and why" and "How it was tested" sections are filled in. The checklist has three items checked and the cargo xtask ci item left unchecked, with the author stating the reason via the fmt diff note. The template's "Every new asset has a row in ASSETS.md" item is marked done, though the PR adds no assets per the summary, which is acceptable. Overall the description is mostly complete.

- Line 697: Update the at calculation in reorient_dash so a reversed closed
subpath with no seam uses position 1.0, while preserving seam-based positioning
for rotated closed subpaths and start-based positioning for open subpaths. Add a
test with closed keys of opposite winding that compares dash_at on the blended
result with dash_at on the key at L - u.

- Around line 685-687: Update the `hit` selection in `gradient_from` to resolve
the stop on the correct side when a reoriented span starts at a gradient step,
preserving the post-step swatch link instead of selecting the pre-step stop
based only on color and opacity. Add a regression for a closed path whose seam
falls on a step with equal-color, equal-opacity stops linked to different
swatches.

When a closed key path now starts where its stroke gradient steps between
two stops of one color linked to different swatches, the gradient's new
first stop takes the swatch link of the stop after the step instead of
the one before it.

- Line 671: In `gradient_from`, keep access to the original gradient stops
before unrolling, then map each unrolled stop to its source stop and obtain its
swatch, tint, and plates from that source rather than from the unrolled stops.
Preserve the existing reorientation behavior and verify the source-stop mapping
for repeated stops. Add a regression that rotates a closed path with a reflected
hue gradient containing linked stops and checks that the repeated stops retain
their links.

A hue gradient that reflects unrolls through its curve, whose stops have no swatch links, so a
gradient along a closed key started elsewhere lost its links. The links now come from the
gradient's own stops unrolled as a Classic gradient's, in order, so stops at one place and the
stops where two runs meet keep their own links.
When two gradients with different stop counts are blended, the second stop at the other
gradient's step took the last stop within the step tolerance, so two close but distinct stops
became a hard step. It now takes the last stop of a step of its own there, and otherwise paints
what the gradient paints at that place.
…rom its end
A closed key that winds the other way is reversed keeping its start anchor.
Its dash offset was computed as if the reversed path ran back from position
0 instead of from the end of the subpath, so the dashes shifted by the
subpath length modulo the pattern period. The offset now uses the full
length in that case, and the dash test covers a closed key 40 long with a
7.5 period.

What and why
When a blend starts a key's path at another anchor (an open path clicked at its last anchor, or a closed path turned to another start or reversed to match the other key's winding), the steps read that key's width profile and pen recordings along the turned path, but its stroke gradient and dashes still followed the key's own direction. Steps near that key showed the gradient flipped or shifted and the dashes out of place. The steps now read them along the turned path:
How the gradient and dashes follow the path is VectorCraft's own rule.
