GPU decoding pipelines plus parallel-throughput fixes.

  • pipeline="cuda" (NVIDIA, Linux/Windows) and pipeline="metal" (Apple GPU, macOS) decode on the GPU via the BRAW SDK
  • Throughput fixes (fmParallel + deferred plane copy): ~2.3× (Metal) / ~1.6× (CUDA) vs CPU at 4.6K — see doc/gpu-benchmark.md
  • Removed the no-op alpha parameter (BRAW has no alpha channel)
