bflatasticandClaude Opus 5.5 6ce58040fd Viewer: the Snapping menu has After Effects' two options
The Tools bar's Snapping options menu (#265) offered per-feature
toggles (Edges, Corners, Centers, Anchor Points, Mask and Shape Path
Points) that After Effects' Snapping menu doesn't have. It now has the
two After Effects has:

- Snap Edges Extended (as before).
- Snap to Features in Collapsed Compositions and Text Layers: the
  visible layers inside a precomp layer with Collapse Transformations
  on are snap targets too, mapped into the outer comp (points always,
  edge lines while the precomp layer is unrotated); a snap highlights
  the precomp layer. Nested collapsed precomps are followed eight deep.

Every layer feature snaps again (corners, edge midpoints, centre,
anchor point, mask and shape path points); the snapping engine itself
is unchanged. `view.snappingOptions` takes `edgesExtended` and
`collapsedFeatures` (and `toggle` of either); the old keys are refused.

Test: collapsed_precomp_features_snap (fails before: no such option),
snapping_options_command_sets_and_toggles (the per-feature keys are
refused), snapping_options_pick_the_targets (AE behaviour kept: edges
extended or not, hidden layers, guides only), and the Snapping menu UI
test (only the two options are listed).
