Three bugs fixed in the draw-first crop tool introduced by PR #114:
1. Stale cropAreaRef: replaced useEffect-based ref sync with direct
synchronous updates in handleMove and handleDrawStart. The useEffect
ran after browser paint, so handleDragEnd read stale values (often
{width:0, height:0}), preventing cropDrawn from being set.
2. Aspect ratio minSize: when aspectRatio=6 (VIN mode), height=width/6
required width>=60% to pass the height>=10% check. Now only checks
width>=minSize when aspect ratio constrains height.
3. Bounds clamping: aspect-ratio-forced height could push crop area
past 100% of container. Now clamps y position to keep within bounds.

- Replace libtesseract-dev with libgomp1 (OpenMP for PaddlePaddle)
- Pre-download PP-OCRv4 models during Docker build
- Add OCR engine env vars to all compose files (base, staging, prod)
- Add optional Google Vision secret mount (commented, enable on demand)
- Create google-vision-key.json.example placeholder

CloudEngine wraps Google Vision TEXT_DETECTION with lazy init.
HybridEngine runs primary engine, falls back to cloud when confidence
is below threshold. Disabled by default (OCR_FALLBACK_ENGINE=none).

Replace direct pytesseract calls with OcrEngine interface in vin_extractor.py,
receipt_extractor.py, and ocr_service.py. PSM mode fallbacks replaced with
engine-agnostic single-line/single-word configs. Dead _process_ocr_data removed.

Introduce pluggable OcrEngine ABC with PaddleOCR PP-OCRv4 as primary
engine and Tesseract wrapper for backward compatibility. Engine factory
reads OCR_PRIMARY_ENGINE config to instantiate the correct engine.

When OCR reads extra characters (e.g. sticker border as 'C', spurious
'Z' insertion), the raw text exceeds 17 chars and the old first-17
trim produced wrong VINs. New strategy tries all 17-char sliding
windows and single/double character deletions, validating each via
check digit. For 'CWVGGNPE2Z4NP069500', this finds the correct VIN
'WVGGNPE24NP069500' (valid check digit) instead of 'CWVGGNPE2Z4NP0695'
(invalid).

tessedit_char_whitelist does not work with OEM 1 (LSTM engine) and
causes empty/erratic output. This was the root cause of Tesseract
returning empty text despite clear, well-preprocessed images.
Character filtering is already handled post-OCR by the VIN validator's
correct_ocr_errors() method (I->1, O->0, Q->0, etc).

The min-channel correctly extracts contrast (white text=255 vs green
sticker bg=130), but Tesseract expects dark text on light background.
Without inversion, the grayscale-only path returned empty text for
every PSM mode because Tesseract couldn't see bright-on-dark text.
Invert via bitwise_not: text becomes 0 (black), sticker bg becomes
125 (gray). Fixes all three OCR paths (adaptive, grayscale, Otsu).

Two fixes:
1. Always use min-channel for color images instead of gated comparison
that was falling back to standard grayscale (which has only 23%
contrast for white-on-green VIN stickers).
2. Add grayscale-only OCR path (CLAHE + denoise, no thresholding)
between adaptive and Otsu attempts. Tesseract's LSTM engine is
designed to handle grayscale input directly and often outperforms
binarized input where thresholding creates artifacts.
Pipeline order: adaptive threshold → grayscale-only → Otsu threshold

Replace std-based channel selection (which incorrectly picked green for
green-tinted VIN stickers) with per-pixel min(B,G,R). White text stays
255 in all channels while colored backgrounds drop to their weakest
channel value, giving 2x contrast improvement. Add morphological
opening after thresholding to remove noise speckles from car body
surface that were confusing Tesseract's page segmentation.

White text on green VIN stickers has only ~12% contrast in standard
grayscale conversion because the green channel dominates luminance.
The new _best_contrast_channel method evaluates each RGB channel's
standard deviation and selects the one with highest contrast, giving
~2x improvement for green-tinted VIN stickers. Falls back to standard
grayscale for neutral-colored images.

Save original, adaptive, and Otsu preprocessed images to
/tmp/vin-debug/{timestamp}/ when LOG_LEVEL is set to debug.
No images saved at info level. Volume mount added for access.

Replace filesystem-based debug system (VIN_DEBUG_DIR) with standard
logger.debug() calls that flow through Loki when LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG.
Use .env.logging variable for OCR LOG_LEVEL. Increase image capture
quality to 0.95 for better OCR accuracy.

Log-based dashboard with 6 panels: request rate, response time
distribution (p50/p95/p99), HTTP status code distribution, request
volume by endpoint, slowest endpoints, and status code breakdown.

Adds file-provisioned dashboard with 5 panels:
- Container Log Volume Over Time (all 9 containers)
- Error Rate Across All Containers (percentage stat)
- Log Level Distribution Per Container (stacked bar chart)
- Container Health Status (green/red per container)
- Total Request Count Over Time (backend requests/min)

Add file-based dashboard provisioning config and mount dashboards
directory into Grafana container for auto-loading dashboard JSON files.

The request-id middleware used {{ .Request.Host }} which is not available
at config load time in the file provider. This template error blocked
the entire file provider from loading, preventing all file-based
middlewares (including grafana-ipwhitelist) from being registered.
The middleware was unused (not referenced by any router or chain) and
the backend already generates X-Request-Id via randomUUID().

Promtail 2.9.0 embeds Docker client API v1.42 which is incompatible with
Docker Engine v29 (minimum API v1.44). Grafana Alloy v1.12.2 resolves this
by using a compatible Docker client.
