docs(inpaint): clarify single-frame mask, conditional round-trip, temp accumulation

Adds a Notes section to inpaint-crop-math.md: MASK is single-frame (mask_to_np
uses frame 0), the pixel-exact round-trip holds only in free+whole_crop+blend=0,
crop_info mask is float32, the no-edge whole-crop feather fallback, and the
editor temp/ source PNGs clear on ComfyUI restart not per run.

`softness` (the seam feather = `blend`) is a Crop node INT widget (0-150), mirrored by the editor's Softness slider; `node_inpaint_crop.py::run` feeds it into the crop geometry as `params["blend"]` (so the crop context grows to fit the feather - section 1) AND injects it into `crop_info["blend"]` (clamped 0-150) for the stitch. `blend_mode` is editor-only `state_json` -> `crop_info["blend_mode"]`. `node_inpaint_stitch.py` reads `blend` + `blend_mode` from `crop_info` (defaults `16` / `mask` for an Image Crop `crop_info` that lacks them).
`color_match` (off/subtle/strong) is the STITCH node's OWN widget, not in `crop_info` (a post-result tweak with no live preview). It shifts the inpainted crop's color stats toward the original over the UNMASKED CONTEXT (the surroundings OUTSIDE the mask) — subtle = match mean, strong = match mean + std. NOT the mask and NOT the whole crop: both include the masked area, so they drag the inpaint's DELIBERATELY changed colors back toward the original (a red->white dress goes pink). Matching the context corrects only the lighting/tone drift in the unchanged surroundings. Falls back to uniform if the mask ~fills the crop (no context). So it is for blending an inpaint INTO the scene, not for deliberate recolors (keep it off for those).
## 6. Notes / caveats
- **MASK is single-frame.** `mask_to_np` collapses a `[B,H,W]` mask to frame 0, so a video / batch crop uses ONE mask (the first frame's) for every frame. The image batch is cropped per-frame with the same rect; only the mask is shared.
- **"Pixel-exact round-trip" is conditional.** Cropping an UN-edited region and stitching it straight back is pixel-exact ONLY in `free` size mode (no resize - and only when the source rect dims are already a `multiple`, so `resize_image_tensor` short-circuits) with `whole_crop` blend mode and `blend = 0` (alpha = 1 everywhere, no feather). `keep` / `force` always resize the crop (so the paste resamples), and any `blend > 0` or `mask` mode feathers the seam - both are intended, not bugs.
- **`crop_info["mask"]` is float32** regardless of the image dtype (the image tensor keeps its own dtype; the carried mask matches `out_mask`).
- **Stitch with no mask edge feathers the whole crop.** If the resolved paste alpha has no edge to soften - an Image Crop `crop_info` whose mask is all-zeros (no mask was wired into Image Crop), an all-ones mask, or a whole-image inpaint with nothing painted - `stitch_back` falls back to the `whole_crop` rectangle feather over the full crop, so the edited crop is still pasted (with a soft seam) instead of pasting nothing (all-zeros) or a hard rectangle (all-ones).
- **The editor's `temp/` source PNG accumulates.** `node_inpaint_crop.py::_save_source_temp` writes one PNG to ComfyUI's `temp/` per run (so the editor can load the upstream pixels of a generative chain). These are cleared on the normal ComfyUI `temp/` lifecycle (restart), not per run.
