- [quality.*] accepts only the supported keys (quality_key_supported):
twelve player-editable ones (masked, copied, classified, applied) and
nine preset-only ones (no settings.toml form; applied on select). Any
other key, e.g. vsync or renderer, is a load error.
- Picking a preset now also applies bloom, texture LOD, anisotropy, FMV
chroma smoothing and dithering (quality_apply_video_globals).
- The frontends flag Custom on any tracked row; the host counts only rows
of keys the title governs (psxq::launcher_custom_edit), so Antialiasing
no longer turns Ultra into Custom when no preset sets it.
Tests cover the rejection, every player key's masking/copy, and the
classification cases.

Nothing is measured about an unknown GPU, so the fallback no longer assumes
Ultra's extra work (supersampling above the display, title Ultra extras);
Low would drop Smooth motion and the PGXP extras on what is usually capable
new hardware. Medium keeps the display's resolution with dynamic
resolution under it. Covers unnamed renderers, Linux with only an AMD PCI
id, and unnamed nouveau chips. docs/QUALITY_PRESETS.md states plainly that
autodetect is a static heuristic over name, threads and memory with no
benchmark, and that the dynamic systems keep the frame rate.

1. Detection never runs under --headless / --hidden-window (CI, scripted
runs): a saved preset applies, else the title's [video]; nothing is
written. A detection is saved only when the GL probe succeeded; a result
from the OS name alone is used for that run and the next launch probes
again (a failed probe could otherwise pin "unknown GPU" -> Ultra).
2. Linux without a GL probe: the classifier now reads the sysfs PCI id
(Steam Deck parts, Intel integrated vs Arc, NVIDIA).
3. AMD/Intel rules rewritten against real renderer strings: "Radeon RX
Vega 11 Graphics" and other Vega/"Radeon Graphics"/R5-R7/680M-890M APUs
are integrated (Low); RX/Pro/W cards and Strix Halo are Ultra; the Intel
Arc iGPU is Low, Arc A/B cards Ultra. quality_presets_test holds a
44-row table of Windows, Mesa (incl. Steam Deck LCD/OLED, zink) and macOS
GL_RENDERER strings, plus probe-failure and headless cases.
5. generated/OpenBIOS.emitter.sha re-stamped.

Owner correction: low-end machines (software GL, Steam Deck, mobile GPUs,
integrated GPUs up to the 890M/Iris Xe class, Apple M1/M2 base, GeForce
MX/GT, fewer than 5 threads, under 6 GB) start on Low; every other machine
starts on Ultra with the dynamic systems as its safety net. Medium and High
are manual choices.

Owner decision: Ultra on first launch, with dynamic resolution, Smooth
motion from surplus and the adaptive aspect as the live safety net. Apple
silicon, discrete GPUs, unknown GPUs and 8 GB machines now detect as Ultra;
software GL, Steam Deck, mobile, Intel HD/UHD and small AMD iGPUs stay Low,
mid iGPUs Medium; fewer than 4 threads or under 6 GB still caps.

A title may declare [quality.low|medium|high|ultra] tables of [video] keys.
On first launch, and when the hardware fingerprint changes while a preset is
in force, psxrecomp detects the CPU, threads, RAM and GPU (OS facts; a hidden
1x1 GL window reads GL_RENDERER only when a detection is due and the OS did
not name the GPU), picks the matching preset and saves quality_preset,
quality_base, quality_hardware and quality_detected to settings.toml.
- Each preset is the whole game.toml re-parsed with its keys over [video], so
every [video] key works in a preset with its usual validation.
- A preset in force owns its keys: saved settings.toml values for them are
ignored. Custom (the player changed a governed setting in the launcher)
applies the player's values over quality_base and is never overridden;
new hardware under Custom is only reported.
- Launcher: GameInfo.quality_* (offered mask, detected preset, hardware
summary, quality_apply / quality_redetect callbacks) and
Settings.quality_preset/quality_base, behind RECOMP_LAUNCHER_HAS_QUALITY_PRESETS.
- PSX_QUALITY=<preset> for one run, PSX_QUALITY_REDETECT=1.
- Titles without [quality.*] are unchanged.
Rules (quality_tier.c) and the decision are unit-tested in
quality_presets_test; docs/QUALITY_PRESETS.md.
