Addresses 16 robustness, transparency, and performance issues across
the Celery media processing pipeline:
Critical:
- Singleton DB engine in vision tasks (was leaking one per task call)
- acks_late + task_reject_on_worker_lost so crashed workers don't lose tasks
- Global soft/hard time limits (5/10 min) to prevent hung worker slots
- Thumbnail copy-before-resize (in-place mutation degraded larger sizes)
- backfill_vision now checks each task type independently (OCR, faces, etc.)
- Parameterized LIMIT in backfill_vision (was f-string SQL injection)
High:
- try/except + retry(max=3) on all vision inference tasks
- extract_metadata writes processing_error on exiftool failure
- PIL Image handles closed in _load_thumb/_load_original
- Scan progress Redis keys auto-expire after 1 hour
- Watcher lock renewal is wall-clock based (30s) not event-count based
- worker_process_init signal warms up vision models on startup
Medium:
- Explicit task_routes for every task name (wildcards never matched)
- app.services.metadata added to Celery include list
- POST /maintenance/recover-stuck endpoint for photos stuck in processing
- Docker healthchecks for worker-light, worker-vision, and Redis
- Task ID in vision log lines for distributed tracing
- Bare except:pass narrowed to specific exceptions

Lets operators fix corrupted capture dates at scale. Adds an editable
Date Taken field with a folder/filename-derived suggestion hint, a bulk
Date Taken section in the multi-select sidebar that either applies one
date to the whole selection or infers a per-photo date from each path,
a warning badge on thumbnails whose stored date disagrees with the
path, and a "Date issues" filter pill so suspicious photos can be
surfaced and fixed as a group. Edits are written back to EXIF on disk
so rescans don't clobber the fix.

Adds a new Map sidebar entry that plots photos by their EXIF GPS
coordinates on a clustered Leaflet map. While wiring this up, the
metadata extractor was reading unprefixed GPS keys that never exist
in `exiftool -G -j` output AND assumed coordinates were already
floats — every photo silently lost its GPS. The new extract_gps
helper handles Composite/EXIF group prefixes and parses DMS strings,
and lat/lon are stored as first-class indexed columns so the map
can query them without parsing exif_json on every request.
