fix(ingestion): the switch walk also skips any input named with "negative"

#90's rule matches only whole underscore-separated words, so negative2, negativeprompt and NegativePrompt counted as positive inputs and an off node wired only to one of them blocked the file. The walk skips those too; follows_input is unchanged.

+"""Image categories (#332): an image file's own category.
+
+An image shows its own category when it has one, otherwise the category its
+link supplies (its recipe's, else its positive prompt's); this table holds
+only the own values. A row is keyed by the file key: the deepest configured
+output source that contains the file (its real, case-normalized path) and the
+path below it, case-folded where the OS folds case
+(``py/api/images.py`` ``image_category_key``). Without nested sources the key
+equals a favorite's key. Nothing follows a moved file: its row stays and is
+hidden until a file appears at the same path again.
+
+Writes validate strictly (the route strips the value and applies
+``validate_category``). Startup checks the structure only, so a value saved
+under older rules never stops the library opening; restore also checks the
+values. Optional in old backups, required once a database is current.

+"""A per-process cache of LoraManager's layout for the image hot paths (#362).
+
+Every Library list, prompt detail, inspect, reveal and serve request needs the
+LoRA allow-list (``ImagesMixin._lora_image_dirs``). Building it means finding
+the LoraManager install, reading its plugin settings file and its settings
+file, and resolving every folder. ``LayoutCache`` keeps the last result and
+reuses it while all of these hold:
+
+- the key (the configured install path, stripped) and the home folder the
+  folder guard compares against are the same;
+- the entry is younger than ``MAX_AGE_SECONDS`` (monotonic clock);
+- the plugin settings file and the settings file have the same signature
+  (``st_mtime_ns``, ``st_size``, or ``MISSING``) as when it was stored;
+- the install and every stored media root still resolve to themselves (a
+  folder swapped for a symlink reloads, so the folder guard runs again).
+
+A result is stored only when no watched file is "racy" (modified within
+``RACY_SECONDS`` of the load, git's rule for racily clean index entries),
+every watched file could be checked, the settings file was readable, and no
+``clear()`` ran during the load. What each rule covers: signatures catch a
+settings change on the next request; the racy rule catches a write during the
+load, a half-written file and coarse timestamps; the maximum age bounds the
+inputs no signature sees (``extra_model_paths.yaml``, environment, temporary
+failures); ``clear()`` makes a finished import's new folders servable at once.
+
+Hits and loads take no lock: a slow ``os.stat`` on a network share holds up
+only its own request, and two threads that miss together both load (both
+loads only read). A short lock guards the compare-and-store and the logging
+state; no file I/O runs under it. Standard library only, so it is tested
+without ComfyUI or LoraManager.

+"""Where LoraManager keeps its files (#355).
+
+LoraManager (``custom_nodes/comfyui-lora-manager``) stores one
+``<name>.metadata.json`` sidecar per model, a preview image or video beside
+it, and each model's downloaded CivitAI example images. Where it stores them
+is a user setting, and its settings file itself can live in three places.
+This module repeats LoraManager's own rules, reading its files only (never
+importing it), so the LoRA import, the trigger-word cache and the image
+server share one definition:
+
+- ``load_layout`` finds the settings file (environment folder, portable
+  plugin file, or the user config folder, in LoraManager's order), keeps only
+  the seven keys the import needs, and resolves the LoRA roots, the sidecar
+  root (centralized storage), the example-images root and the active
+  LoraManager library. Every folder from the settings, and each of
+  ComfyUI's default LoRA folders, passes the folder guard: it must exist and
+  must not be a filesystem root, the home folder or a folder that contains
+  it. Default folders the guard refuses are listed in ``refused_defaults``.
+- ``discover_sidecars`` finds every sidecar whose model file exists inside a
+  LoRA root: beside the models in ``alongside`` mode, under the sidecar root
+  (matched to its model by ``file_path``) in ``centralized`` mode.
+- ``local_media`` lists a LoRA's preview and example images that the image
+  server may serve.
+
+Standard library plus ``platformdirs`` only (LoraManager depends on it), so
+it is testable outside ComfyUI.

+"""Prove the scratch-seeded resets leave the state the old resets left (#384).
+
+Run by hand on Linux (the browser server's platform):
+
+    python -m tests.browser.reset_equivalence
+
+It starts the browser server three times: twice seeding on the live database
+as before #384 (``PM_TEST_SEED_ON_LIVE=1``) and once with the scratch seeder.
+Each server gets the same sequence: every reset kind of ``/__test__/reset``
+and ``/__test__/concept/reset``, with other fixtures' resets and API writes
+between them. After every reset it reads every table's rows (by rowid), the
+output and input file trees (size, SHA-256, mtime) and the response body.
+
+Values that differ between the two old runs are wall-clock values (created_at,
+an unpinned concept "now", file mtimes); they are masked. Everything else must
+be equal between the old runs and the new one. Exit status 0 means equal.

+The logger writes into ``<server root>/logs`` (``repoint_logs``, called by
+``create_app`` before any record is written), so no test reads or deletes a
+real log folder. Every route refuses a log folder outside the server root.
+
+- ``POST /__test__/logs/reset`` restores the default logging configuration,
+  empties the active log, removes every other entry of the log folder (a
+  link is removed, never followed) and clears the in-memory buffer. The
+  global ``/__test__/reset`` calls it too;
+- ``POST /__test__/logs/seed`` ``{records, filler, rotated, active, link,
+  other}`` writes buffer records with fixed times (``records``: the concept's
+  four lines, then one DEBUG, ERROR and CRITICAL record, older; ``filler``
+  more INFO records older still), ``active`` bytes into the active log,
+  rotated copies ``prompt_manager.log.<n>`` of the listed sizes (fixed
+  times), on POSIX a symlink ``prompt_manager.log.<n+1>`` to a file outside
+  the folder (``link``) and a user's ``prompt_manager.log.bak`` (``other``).
+  ``{mode: "concept"}`` reproduces the concept's Logs sample (app.js 695)
+  for the comparison: the buffer holds only its four lines, the active log
+  is 1.4 MB with three rotated copies ("prompt_manager.log · 1.4 MB · rotated
+  copies: 3") and console logging is off, as the concept's toggle;
+- ``POST /__test__/logs/rotate`` rolls the copies over as the handler does
+  (``.2`` → ``.3``, ``.1`` → ``.2``, a new ``.1``), so a reviewed plan no
+  longer matches;
+- ``GET /__test__/logs/state`` answers the folder's entries (name, size, link)
