Full Release Notes

## Watermark removal safety

- Prevents the exact 96px/R192 white source-witness rescue from accepting inverted or effectively zero signed spatial evidence solely because unsigned edges are strongly localized.
- Avoids the visible black-hole damage reproduced from issue #123 on structured dark content.
- Keeps the existing dark-polarity exception narrowly gated behind an independently selected drifted dark-polarity trial and strong localized signed spatial evidence.

On the reported #123 image, v1.0.35 preserves the source pixels and reports `no-watermark-detected` instead of producing damaged output. This is a damage-prevention hotfix; it does not claim reliable removal for that watermark family, and #123 remains open for additional samples.
