Adds test-LSCO-asy-ZF.msr with its data file lem07_his_0592.root, a
maxLH_check (chisq) test, and musrview_check tests (time domain and
Fourier) including their reference PNGs.
musrview is now a client/server application following the ROOT7 architecture
(S. Linev et al., J. Phys. Conf. Ser. 1525 (2020) 012092): the C++ side holds
the data, an ROOT::RWebWindow ships it as JSON to a JSROOT page which renders
it. This addresses three long standing problems.
The fit parameter, theory and run info blocks were TPaveText/TLegend objects
which scaled their content down until it became unreadable as soon as a fit had
many parameters. They are HTML panels now: fixed font size, own scrollbar, and
each of them can be shown and hidden individually. The run info keeps listing
every run with the very symbol it is plotted with.
The command keys ('d', 'f', 'a', ...) were executed even while a text or latex
label was being typed into the canvas. The page checks whether a text input has
the focus, so typing a 'd' inserts a 'd'.
The plot views were encoded in a set of entangled variables plus a static one
which leaked state between canvases. PMusrViewMode describes them as four
orthogonal properties - domain, Fourier component, difference including whether
it is formed before or after the transform, and average - so that combinations
such as 'Fourier-difference-average' are well defined. PMusrViewModel::GetCurves()
is the single place which maps a view mode onto histograms; plotting and ascii
export both go through it and can no longer disagree, which removed some 700
lines of duplicated view logic from the export.
New classes, namespace musrview:
PMusrViewMode the decoupled view state, free of ROOT and GUI, unit tested
PMusrViewModel the GUI-free data layer, physics taken over unchanged
PMusrWebCanvas the web front end and the graphics export
Further notes:
- The interactive path builds no TCanvas at all, the spectra travel as a TList
of drawables. A TCanvas creates and maps its window already in the
constructor, which would put an empty ROOT canvas next to the musrview window.
- The graphics export keeps the classic pad layout and its 800x600 size and
runs with ROOT in batch mode, so batch operation needs no browser.
- The window opens at 1200x900, since toolbar and panels take their share.
- Non-muSR axis labels are taken from the data file again, and ROOT/TLatex
markup is rendered in the HTML panels as well.
- musrview needs a ROOT built with -Droot7=ON -Dwebgui=ON, plus -Dqt6web=ON for
the embedded window (--embedded, the default). --browser uses the standard
browser of the system, --browser=server only prints the URL.
- PMusrCanvas is no longer part of the build, the files are kept for reference.
Tests: 87/87 pass, among them a new unit test of the view modes and a new
musrview test covering the non-muSR fit type.

Three unrelated issues made the musrview_check tests fail on macOS while
passing on Linux.
1. Unspecified argument evaluation order
TColor::GetColor(rand.Integer(255), rand.Integer(255), rand.Integer(255))
evaluates its (side-effecting) arguments in an unspecified order: clang
goes left-to-right, gcc right-to-left, so the same seed yielded RGB on
one platform and BGR on the other. Visible whenever more runs are
plotted than the startup xml colour list provides, e.g.
test-histo-HAL9500.msr with 16 runs against 10 colours.
The rgb values are now drawn into separate variables first. This keeps
the clang result and changes gcc to match, hence the regenerated
reference PNG for musrview-histo-HAL9500 (99.94% of the differing
pixels were exact R<->B swaps).
Fixed in PMusrCanvas, PFourierCanvas and both mupp PMuppCanvas copies.
2. Fixed size path buffers
char fileName[128] plus strncpy(dst, src, sizeof(dst)) truncates *and*
leaves the buffer unterminated once the path reaches the buffer size.
musrview then failed on a 132 character msr-path in doc/examples/ViewOpts.
musrFT and musrt0 were worse: an unbounded strcpy of the startup file
path into char startup_path_name[128], i.e. a stack buffer overflow.
All path/filename buffers in the drivers are now std::string:
musrview, musrFT, musrt0, musrfit, any2many, addRun, dump_header.
PMusrCanvas::SaveGraphicsAndQuit() takes const Char_t* accordingly.
Along the way in the same files:
- msr2msr_replace() wrote a 256 byte line into char temp[128]
- msr2msr assembled "cp"/"rm" shell commands from paths in a 256 byte
buffer; replaced by std::filesystem
- msr2msr and addRun read lines with getline(buf, N), which silently
abandons the rest of the file on the first over-long line
- addRun: bound the unbounded sscanf "%s" to "%255s"
- dropped scratch buffers that only held a string literal, in favour of
TString::ReplaceAll(const char*, const char*)
3. musrview_check.py left its PNGs behind on failure
The two early error returns skipped the cleanup, and since generated
PNGs were identified by "not in the pre-run snapshot", one leftover file
permanently masked the real output of that test: musrview overwrites the
stale PNG, so it was there, just filtered out. One failure thus poisoned
every later run (30 of the 37 observed failures) after a 15 s poll each.
Cleanup now runs in a finally block on every exit path, and generated
PNGs are detected by mtime instead, which sees rewritten leftovers while
staying safe for a sibling test running concurrently under ctest -j.
Also dropped the MUSRVIEW_PNG_DIR env var and its tmp-dir fallback: it
is read nowhere in src/, so the fallback was dead code that guaranteed
the full 15 s poll before every "no PNGs found" failure.
