Two follow-up review findings on the merge with main.
A gradient leading a url() layer was treated as a resolvable surface even
when its stops are translucent, so the glow and AI-palette hunts averaged
wash stops (a 20% black wash reads as pure black) while the real surface
blends with image pixels the engine cannot read. resolveBackgroundInfo now
marks gradient-over-image unresolved unless every readable stop of the
leading gradient is opaque, in which case the gradient provably covers the
image and remains the scorable surface.
parseGradientColorsModern predated this branch's parseGradientColors
rewrite: its second regex pass re-extracted color tokens nested inside
color-mix() stops that the shared parser already captures whole via
balanced-paren tokens, appending ingredient colors that are never painted.
The worst-case stop ratio then invented low-contrast findings against a
color nobody sees. The helper is removed; all callers use the shared
parser, which covers the modern syntaxes it existed for.
Fixture coverage pins both: the translucent-wash-over-image glow abstains
in both engines, an opaque gradient over an image still flags in the
browser, and the color-mix wash case stays clean in the static engine.
Each new assertion was verified to fail against the previous engine.
