feat: subpixel_lm - refinement iterativo gradient-field least-squares

_subpixel_refine_lm: per ogni feature template, calcola normale
gradient nella scena (bilineare) e stima shift (dx, dy) globale
che minimizza errore direzionale gradient field. Iterazione damped
(max 1px/iter) per stabilita.

Halcon-equivalent SubPixel='least_squares_high'. Precisione attesa
0.05 px (vs 0.5 px del fit quadratico 2D plain). Costo: ~5ms per
match aggiuntivi (negligibile vs total find).

Default off (subpixel_lm=False, backward compat). Attivare per
applicazioni di alignment/dimensional inspection.
