//! **The pixel loop**: supersampling, and nothing else.
//!
//! There is no compositing model here and no coverage curve. Each pixel is cut
//! into a [`SUB`]×[`SUB`] grid and every subsample asks the shape list one
//! question — *which of you, if any, is on top of me* — which is the painter's
//! order read from the back. The pixel is then the average of what its
//! subsamples saw.
//!
//! **That is exact rather than approximate**, and it is why the seam between
//! two touching shapes is seamless: a per-shape coverage composite blends each
//! edge against what is under it and leaves a lighter line where two edges
//! meet, because both are partly transparent at the same subpixel. Here nothing
//! is partly anything — a subsample belongs to exactly one shape or to none.
//!
//! And it keeps the whole file in integers ([`super`] on why that matters):
//! coverage is a count, alpha is that count scaled, and a channel is a mean of
//! bytes.
