//! Intra prediction sample generation: reference-sample derivation with
//! substitution, and planar / DC / angular predictors (H.266 ยง8.4.5).
//!
//! Ported from VTM `xPredIntraPlanar` / `xPredIntraDc` / `xPredIntraAng`. The
//! angular path uses the VVC angle and inverse-angle tables, builds the extended
//! main/side reference arrays (including the negative-angle left extension via
//! `absInvAngle`), copies integer slopes directly, and interpolates fractional
//! positions with the 4-tap cubic (DCT-IF chroma) or smoothing filter selected
//! exactly as VTM does. Square blocks only, so no wide-angle remapping applies.
//!
//! Deferred for a later increment (documented simplifications, so this is not yet
//! a fully conformant predictor): position-dependent prediction combination
//! (PDPC) and the reference-sample smoothing ([1 2 1]/4) filter. The directional
//! core below is otherwise spec-faithful.
