Added

• Configurable pipeline stages per project: Projects now store pipeline stage configuration
  (probe, transcribe, frames, describe, embed) persisted in SQLite (projects.pipeline_json,
  migration 11).
• Index without transcription (b-roll / dialogue-free footage): Speech transcription can now be
  disabled during project creation or dynamically toggled later. Disabled stages are skipped entirely
  during index runs and excluded from progress estimation.
• Smart pipeline job synchronization: When a stage is disabled across all projects watching a video,
  pending and queued jobs are marked skipped. Re-enabling a stage automatically restores them to pending
  for the next index run (while respecting zero-audio videos).
• CLI pipeline management:
  • ghostreel project create <name> --no-transcribe or --stages <list>
  • ghostreel project config -p <project> [--enable|--disable|--no-transcribe|--transcribe]
  • ghostreel project show -p <project> displays active and disabled stages
  • ghostreel index -p <project> [--stages|--skip|--no-transcribe]
• Desktop UI pipeline controls: Added a checkbox in the project creation modal to toggle
  transcription, and a dedicated Pipeline Stages section inside the [ ⚙ Project ▾ ] header dropdown
  to toggle stages interactively with clean vertical alignment.
