Esa Kataja c00a00bb2a Propose the content rectangle from the staff lines
Both scan problems reported from testing came from the same place: the
content rectangle defaulted to the whole page, so the mechanism meant
to handle margin junk never engaged. Ketun joululaulu has a vertical
scan streak down the right margin and Engel a shadow, and because trim
is tight and per slice, either one sets that slice's width, which sets
the song's widest slice, which scales the whole song down.

Detection can propose it. Staff lines are long horizontal runs; scan
shadows, spine darkening and glass streaks are vertical, so a wide flat
opening keeps one and erases the other. Three corrections were needed
against the corpus:

- Search only rows inside detected systems. A horizontal artefact above
  or below the music is itself a long horizontal run reaching the paper
  edge, which put Engel's left bound at 0.
- Take a percentile of the staff-line extents, not the maximum. Where
  an artefact touches a staff line the two merge into one component: on
  Ketun p2 the merged line ends at 1575px against 1544px on the clean
  page.
- Take the left bound from the brackets too. A bracket sits left of
  every staff line, so a staff-line bound crops it off — visible
  immediately when comparing exported slices.

Anchors are now a dataclass carrying their left edge rather than a
(top, bottom) tuple.

Engel now drops 12-14% of page width and its music fills 1920px instead
of leaving the shadow's dead space; Ketun drops 12%.

Existing projects keep their saved rectangle; the editor's new Auto-fit
and Auto-fit all buttons re-propose it without disturbing cuts.
