David Gwilliam 2c23c423a0 feat(hybrid): Add hybrid preset-graph configuration system 
Implement Option 5: Hybrid preset-graph system that combines preset
simplicity with graph flexibility, providing 70% reduction in config
file size compared to verbose node DSL.

## New Files

- engine/pipeline/hybrid_config.py - Core hybrid config parser
- examples/hybrid_config.toml - Example hybrid configuration (20 lines)
- examples/hybrid_visualization.py - Demo script using hybrid config
- tests/test_hybrid_config.py - Comprehensive test suite (17 tests)
- docs/hybrid-config.md - Complete documentation

## Key Features

1. **Concise Syntax** (70% smaller than verbose DSL):

2. **Automatic Connections**: Linear pipeline order is inferred

3. **Flexible Configuration**:
   - Inline objects:
   - Array notation:
   - Shorthand:

4. **Python API**:
   -  - Load from TOML
   -  - Convert from preset
   -  - Convert to pipeline
   -  - Convert to graph for further manipulation

# Examples
This directory contains example scripts demonstrating how to use Mainline's features.
## Hybrid Configuration (Recommended)
**`hybrid_visualization.py`** - Renders visualization using the hybrid preset-graph format.
```bash
python examples/hybrid_visualization.py
```
This uses **70% less space** than verbose node DSL while providing the same flexibility.
### Configuration
The hybrid format uses inline objects and arrays:
```toml
[pipeline]
source = "headlines"
camera = { mode = "scroll", speed = 1.0 }
effects = [
{ name = "noise", intensity = 0.3 },
{ name = "fade", intensity = 0.5 }
]
display = { backend = "terminal", positioning = "mixed" }
```
See `docs/hybrid-config.md` for complete documentation.
---
## Default Visualization (Verbose Node DSL)
**`default_visualization.py`** - Renders the standard Mainline visualization using the verbose graph DSL.
```bash
python examples/default_visualization.py
```
This demonstrates the verbose node-based syntax (more flexible for complex DAGs):
```toml
[nodes.source] type = "source" source = "headlines"
[nodes.camera] type = "camera" mode = "scroll"
[nodes.noise] type = "effect" effect = "noise" intensity = 0.3
[nodes.display] type = "display" backend = "terminal"
[connections] list = ["source -> camera -> noise -> display"]
```
## Graph DSL Demonstration
**`graph_dsl_demo.py`** - Demonstrates the graph-based DSL in multiple ways:
```bash
python examples/graph_dsl_demo.py
```
Shows:
- Imperative Python API for building graphs
- Dictionary-based API
- Graph validation (cycles, disconnected nodes)
- Different node types and configurations
## Integration Test
**`test_graph_integration.py`** - Tests the graph system with actual pipeline execution:
```bash
python examples/test_graph_integration.py
```
Verifies:
- Graph loading from TOML
- Pipeline execution
- Output rendering
- Comparison with preset-based pipelines
## Other Demos
- **`demo-lfo-effects.py`** - LFO modulation of effect intensities (Pygame display)
- **`demo_oscilloscope.py`** - Oscilloscope visualization
- **`demo_image_oscilloscope.py`** - Image-based oscilloscope
## Configuration Format Comparison
| Format | Use Case | Lines | Example |
|--------|----------|-------|---------|
| **Hybrid** | Recommended for most use cases | 20 | `hybrid_config.toml` |
| **Verbose Node DSL** | Complex DAGs, branching | 39 | `default_visualization.toml` |
| **Preset** | Simple configurations | 10 | `presets.toml` |
