SnapOtterandGitHub 35e18d8b79 fix: GPU deployment robustness (6 fixes from end-to-end testing on an RTX 4070) (#334)
* fix(docker): pin CUDA base to 12.6 so the GPU image starts on R560+ drivers

The amd64 base nvidia/cuda:12.9.2-cudnn-runtime bakes a cuda>=12.9 driver gate enforced by nvidia-container-toolkit at container start, so the image fails to launch on common production drivers (e.g. 570.x / CUDA 12.8). The AI bundles are all cu126 wheels and the image installs libcublas-12-6, so 12.9 was misaligned with the workload. Pin to nvidia/cuda:12.6.3-cudnn-runtime-ubuntu24.04 to match the wheels and lower the driver floor to R560+.

* fix(ai): broaden OOM detection so the rembg lighter-model fallback fires

onnxruntime/CUDA allocation failures surface as 'Failed to allocate memory for requested buffer', CUBLAS_STATUS_ALLOC_FAILED, or bad_alloc, not just 'out of memory'. The background-removal and transparency-fixer fallback-to-lighter-model paths only matched the literal 'out of memory', so the fallback was dead code and transparency-fixer (default birefnet-hr-matting) always failed with an allocation error. Add isMemoryAllocError() and use it in both checks.

* fix(ai): use bundled PaddleOCR models so OCR runs offline

ocr.py passed no model dirs to PaddleOCR, so PaddleX resolved models from ~/.paddlex and downloaded them from HuggingFace at runtime (slow first use, broken air-gapped), ignoring the models the OCR bundle ships in MODELS_PATH; it also pulled doc-orientation/unwarping models that are not bundled. Pin detection, recognition and textline models to the bundled dirs in MODELS_PATH (per language) and disable use_doc_orientation_classify / use_doc_unwarping, with per-component fallback when a model is absent. Verified: OCR runs with zero HuggingFace requests.

* fix(docker): add CAP_KILL so container shutdown is graceful

cap_drop: ALL without re-adding KILL meant tini (PID 1, root) could not forward SIGTERM to the gosu-dropped snapotter process (root minus CAP_KILL cannot signal a different UID). docker stop logged '[FATAL tini] forwarding signal: Operation not permitted', never delivered the signal, and fell back to SIGKILL after the 10s timeout. Add KILL to cap_add in both compose files. Verified: docker stop completes in 0s with SIGTERM delivered (exit 143) and no FATAL tini.

* fix(ai): serialize bundle installs against AI jobs to prevent sidecar segfault

A feature bundle install rewrites the shared Python venv (pip + copytree of site-packages/*.so) as a background subprocess, with no coordination against AI tool jobs that dlopen native libs (torch / onnxruntime CUDA) from the same venv; a job loading a shared object while it is overwritten segfaults the sidecar. Add a process-wide async mutex (venv-lock.ts): bridge.run() acquires it before every AI script and the install route holds it across the installer subprocess. Both run in the same Node process so a module-level lock suffices. Verified: concurrent install + AI job produces zero segfaults and the job serializes behind the install.

* fix(ai): make the venv lock read/write so concurrent AI jobs are not serialized

The first cut used an exclusive mutex, which (a) deferred the dispatcher spawn by a microtask and broke unit tests that synchronously drive the mocked spawn, and (b) serialized AI jobs against each other, removing the dispatcher's by-id request multiplexing. Make it a writer-preferring read/write lock: AI jobs are shared readers (with a synchronous fast path so spawn still happens in-tick) and a bundle install is the exclusive writer. Verified: all 764 AI unit tests pass.

* fix(ai): degrade OCR to Tesseract on CPU-only hosts instead of segfaulting

The amd64 AI bundle ships paddlepaddle-gpu, whose native libs dlopen
libcuda.so.1 at import and segfault on a host without a GPU (libcuda is the
driver lib, injected only by nvidia-container-toolkit on GPU hosts). The
segfault crashed the shared long-lived AI dispatcher and, after a few attempts,
tripped the bridge crash-recovery permanent-disable, wedging all AI until a
container restart. The standalone ocr tool defaults to quality=balanced
(PaddleOCR), so it hit this on every CPU-only deployment; ocr-pdf already
hardcoded Tesseract and was unaffected.

ocr.py now gates the PaddleOCR tiers on gpu_available(): balanced/best
transparently fall back to fast (Tesseract, CPU-capable) when no usable GPU is
present, and run_paddleocr_v5/run_paddleocr_vl refuse before importing paddle so
the GPU build is never dlopen'd on CPU. GPU hosts are unchanged.

Verified on a CPU-only Windows/WSL2 box: ocr returns Tesseract text across
repeated runs with the dispatcher staying healthy (no wedge).
