2c163bf73d Legacy Brightness/Contrast: brightness first, then contrast around 128, as in Photoshop (#2615)
* Legacy Brightness/Contrast: brightness first, then contrast around 128, as in Photoshop

With Use Legacy on, PhotoCraft applied contrast first and then added
the brightness, so any setting that moves both sliders came out wrong:
brightness +40 with contrast +30 mapped mid-grey 128 to 168, where
Photoshop gives 185 (up to 17 levels darker across the midtones).

Measured on Photoshop 27.11 (scripted, a gray ramp through seven
settings): Photoshop adds the brightness, then scales contrast around
128/255. Contrast 80 keeps 128 at 128; the 0.5 pivot moved it to 130.
With both changes every measured value matches within 1 level, on the
CPU and in the GPU adjustment kernel.

* Legacy B/C: brightness after contrast when contrast is lowered

The corpus caught it: psd-tools' brightnesscontrast_legacy_grayscale.psd
(brightness -23, contrast -26) matched Photoshop with the old order and
was 6 levels off with brightness first. Photoshop adds the brightness
before contrast when contrast is raised (measured: +40/+30 maps 128 to
185) and after it when contrast is lowered. The measured cases with
lowered contrast had brightness 0, so they could not tell.

CPU and GPU kernel (brightness after contrast goes in p0.w). The io
corpus oracle is back at its floor; the 34 GPU parity tests pass.
