find_dupes: streaming row-chunked compare (fits ~4GB cgroup caps)

The single-matrix fix still oom-killed at n=31,937: Hermes background
jobs run in a systemd scope capped near 4GB, and the n^2 uint64 xor
matrix alone is 8GB. Now row chunks of 1024 stream through both hash
gates (peak a few hundred MB temps), the only resident n^2 structure
is the bool close-matrix (1GB), and the color-histogram L1 is computed
only for rows surviving both hashes (replaces the 4GB float32 matrix).
Verified on a 2,502-file corpus incl planted cross-chunk duplicate
pair and an orphan copy (correctly untouched).

+### Probe scheduling (thinned inference)
+
+The original loop predicts on *every* frame until a scene yields a face —
+free on a 3090 (~0.2 s/predict), hopeless on an iGPU (~5 s/img). With
+`--probe-stride N` the decode stays frame-perfect but inference runs only
+at scene starts and then every Nth frame, giving up after
+`--probe-max-per-scene` probes and waiting for the next scene. Ported from
+the `feat/igpu-ov` branch to main (Oct 28) so both platforms share one
+schedule.
+
+| mode (same 43k-frame special, 3090 GPU1) | wall time | stills |
+|-------------------------------------------|-----------|--------|
+| default (every frame)                     | 6m11s     | 475    |
+| `--probe-stride 25 --probe-max-per-scene 4` | 2m34s   | 459 (96.6%) |
+
+Use `25`/`4` for real runs; stride 1 keeps byte-identical behavior, so
+older extracted corpora are unaffected. Accepted trade-off: a face visible
+for less than ~stride frames between probes can slip through.
+
 ## Notes
 
 - Runs every frame of every scene until a face qualifies, then waits
