feat: pyramid_propagate - candidati top-level guidano full-res

Top-level ritorna top-K picchi locali invece di solo max. Fase full-res
valuta solo crop locali attorno ai picchi propagati (margine =
sf_top + spread + nms_radius/2) invece di scansionare intera scena.

Su scene 1920x1080 con pochi candidati: ~20-30% piu veloce mantenendo
identici match. Vantaggio cresce con scene piu grandi e meno candidati.
