Full Release Notes

## 2K Image Watermark Removal

- Recognize the new Gemini 2K watermark layout found on exact `2048x2048` and `2400x1792` outputs: a `48x48` watermark with `96px` right and bottom margins.
- Keep existing canonical candidates first for other image sizes, and require candidate validation before selecting the new secondary layout.
- Preserve best-effort processing without adding a rejection threshold, changing alpha strength, or enabling broader cleanup behavior.

## Release Validation

- Reprocessed all 12 public issue #101 samples: all 12 were processed, 11 passed the residual gate, and every sample selected the reported anchor. One sample retains a mild edge residual instead of being skipped.
- Added deterministic regressions for both confirmed 2K dimensions and a negative control for the existing `2752x1536` canonical `96x96` layout.
- Complete automated result: 1,677 passed, 32 skipped, and 0 failed.
- Packed SDK consumer smoke: 8 passed.
- Scoped image quality gate, release goal audit, and GitHub CI passed.
