NX Loom 0.26.1 — the suggestion lane survives contact with a real avatar

Field report from an NX-Dinasty session: trace spaghetti knotted between the toes, meandering torso lines, and — with symmetry on — proposals that ignored the mirror entirely. All three are fixed.

• No more teleporting traces. The tracer walks the proxy's actual face adjacency instead of snapping to the globally nearest face, so a trace can never jump the gap between two toes (or any two disconnected shells). Under test with twin icospheres: 22 traces, 0 hops.
• Calmer fields on dense sculpts. The solving proxy is Taubin-smoothed first, singularities are clustered before seeding, scraps are dropped, and traces stop at 80% of the sculpt's span.
• Symmetry-aware suggesting. With a mirror axis set, the field solves on the kept half only, ghosts draw mirrored so you see the real outcome, and accepted proposals come out properly paired — zero unpaired arcs. Seam-hugging proposals are clipped away; that line belongs to the seam curve.
• The mirror-coverage guard's reach is capped at ~2% of the layout span, so long arcs no longer claim coverage over clearly separate parallels.

Suite: 411 headless + 16 GUI checks, 122-layout sweep clean.
