David Gwilliam 0eb5f1d5ff feat: Implement pipeline hot-rebuild and camera improvements
- Fixes issue #45: Add state property to EffectContext for motionblur/afterimage effects
- Fixes issue #44: Reset camera bounce direction state in reset() method
- Fixes issue #43: Implement pipeline hot-rebuild with state preservation
- Adds radial camera mode for polar coordinate scanning
- Adds afterimage and motionblur effects
- Adds acceptance tests for camera and pipeline rebuild

Closes #43, #44, #45

"""
Visual effects type definitions and base classes.
EffectPlugin Architecture:
- Uses ABC (Abstract Base Class) for interface enforcement
- Runtime discovery via directory scanning (effects_plugins/)
- Configuration via EffectConfig dataclass
- Context passed through EffectContext dataclass
Plugin System Research (see AGENTS.md for references):
- VST: Standardized audio interfaces, chaining, presets (FXP/FXB)
- Python Entry Points: Namespace packages, importlib.metadata discovery
- Shadertoy: Shader-based with uniforms as context
Current gaps vs industry patterns:
- No preset save/load system
- No external plugin distribution via entry points
- No plugin metadata (version, author, description)

Effect Behavior with ticker_height=0:
- NoiseEffect: Returns buffer unchanged (no ticker to apply noise to)
- FadeEffect: Returns buffer unchanged (no ticker to fade)
- GlitchEffect: Processes normally (doesn't depend on ticker_height)
- FirehoseEffect: Returns buffer unchanged if no items in context
Effects should handle missing or zero context values gracefully by
returning the input buffer unchanged rather than raising errors.
The param_bindings system enables PureData-style signal routing:
- Sensors emit values that effects can bind to
- Transform functions map sensor values to param ranges
- Effects read bound values from context.state["sensor.{name}"]
