H3 Prompt Writer: fixes from a full review

Thirteen fixes with tests: keep-going endings and audio, timing,
script parsing, undo, stale timeline updates, thumbnails, bypassed
inputs and wrapped picture chips.

 ### Video Crop + Rotate + Pad → Frame
 
 Picks one frame from a video, then gives you the same rotate, crop and pad controls as the image node, plus an optional megapixel resize. Scrub to the frame with the playhead on the node; the editor adds frame-by-frame stepping and playback. It returns the transformed `image`, a `mask` of the added area, a `stitcher`, the chosen `original` frame, and the output `width` and `height`. For a whole clip, use the Clip version below.

+# Load Audio
+
+Loads a sound file and hands on only the part you pick. Use it for a voice
+clip, a song or any sound a video model or a save node takes, when you want
+one part of the file and not the whole thing.
+
+The node shows the whole file as a wave, so you can see where the loud parts
+are. The part that comes out is bright. Drag the white **IN** and **OUT**
+handles to set where it starts and stops, drag the bright part to slide it,
+or click somewhere else on the wave to move it there. You can also type a time
+under the wave, in seconds (`12.5`) or minutes and seconds (`1:02.5`).
+
+Press **▶** to hear only the part that comes out. **LOOP** plays it again and
+again.
+
+## Max length
+
+Set **Max length** to the longest sound the next step can take, such as the
+length of the video you are making. The start stays where it is, and anything
+past the limit turns red with a dashed line where it is cut. Next to OUT,
+the node shows how long the sound that comes out is, such as `15.0 s`. It
+turns red when part of your pick is cut; hold the mouse over it to see how
+much, and click it to move OUT to the cut. Play stops at the cut, so what you
+hear is what comes out. `0` means no limit.
+
+Max length can be wired. When the wire comes from a number node such as
+Float 🆎, the wave shows the cut for that number; otherwise the length's tooltip says
+`max wired` and the run still cuts the sound to the wired length.
+
+## Controls
+
+- **Source** (`audio`): a sound file in ComfyUI's input folder. **Upload**
+  adds one. Videos are listed as well, for their sound.
+- **Max length** (`max_seconds`): the longest the sound may be, in seconds.
+  `0` means no limit.
+- **IN** (`start_seconds`): where the sound starts.
+- **OUT** (`end_seconds`): where the sound stops. `0` means the end of the
+  file.
+
+## Outputs
+
+- `audio`: the part you picked, for any node that takes `AUDIO`.
+- `seconds`: how long that sound is.
+
+## Technical details
+
+- Only the picked part is decoded: decoding stops once the window is full,
+  so a short pick from a long recording stays quick.
+- The sound keeps its own sample rate and channels.
+- A start past the end of the file stops the run with a message that says so.
+- The wave is drawn in the browser from the file itself; nothing extra is
+  stored with the workflow besides the four values above.
