Two ways the written files could misdescribe themselves without anyone noticing.
The pixel format is stated twice and the two were never compared: each image
carries its own type as a CBOR tag, which is what the data files are written
with, while the master is typed from the start message. A stream whose header
contradicts its images produced data files of one type under a master declaring
another, and with NXmxVDS, HDF5 then converts silently on every read.
HDF5DataFile::CreateFile now checks the two agree and refuses the run otherwise -
the point where the values first meet, so it covers every path into the writer.
Two test fixtures were relying on exactly that inconsistency. The HDF5 writer
tests wrote uint16 buffers under a JUNGFRAU experiment, which converts to photon
counts by default and so declares int16; they never read the pixels back, so it
went unnoticed. The receiver-lite tests feed frames from
compression_benchmark.h5, which really are signed int16, through a DECTRIS
experiment, which declares unsigned by default - the same class of bug the
pixel_signed propagation fixed on the live path. Both now declare what they send.
Second: a virtual dataset whose source file is absent reads as the fill value,
and HDF5 defaults that to zero, so a data file that was not copied alongside the
master is indistinguishable from frames of genuine zero counts. Measured with
DIALS on a four-file set with one file removed: 25 frames of pure zeros, no error
and no warning. The image VDS is now filled with the error marker instead, which
sits outside underload_value..saturation_value, so a reader masks those frames.
Same measurement after the change: -32768 throughout, which DIALS excludes.
Only the images ask for a fill value; the per-image metadata datasets keep the
default.

This is an UNSTABLE release. It includes many experimental features, as well as many AI generated fixes. We recommend using rc.152 for production use.
* jfjoch_process: Major rotation (rot3d) data processing overhaul - robust profile-fit integration, Cauchy-loss scaling with optional absorption surface, de-novo indexing and space-group/centering determination fixes, and merging statistics + ISa in the mmCIF output.
* jfjoch_process: Add EXPERIMENTAL ice-ring detection (--detect-ice-rings) that excludes ice reflections from scaling.
* Compression: Add BSHUF_ZSTD_RLE_HUFF, make compression size-aware (drop frames that don't fit rather than aborting), and add the jfjoch_recompress tool.
* jfjoch_viewer: Report "Multiple lattices detected" and grey out "Analyze dataset" on a live connection.
* jfjoch_broker: Write smargon chi/phi goniometer positions to NXmx; read sensor thickness/material from HDF5 metadata.
* CI: Build Windows (CUDA and non-CUDA) installers.Reviewed-on: #66

This is an UNSTABLE release. The release has significant modifications for data processing - in case of troubles go back to 1.0.0-rc.144.
jfjoch_process: Generate a dedicated file (_process.h5), which can be used as a replacement for the _master.h5 file for a reanalyzed dataset.
jfjoch_process: Improve the performance of scaling and merging, implement on the fly scaling.
jfjoch_writer: All final data analysis results are repopulated in the _master.h5 file.
jfjoch_scale: Dedicated tool for rescaling/merging existing data.
jfjoch_viewer: Fix bugs where pixel labels where displayed on a wrong pixel.
WARNING! Scaling and merging are experimental at the moment, and may not provide reasonable results for the time being.

This is an UNSTABLE release. The release has significant modifications for HDF5 writing logic - in case of troubles go back to 1.0.0-rc.144.
* **Default HDF5 writing mode is with VDS, not soft-links** - this improves DIALS compatibility and makes format more future-proof, NXmx legacy format might be phased-out in the future.
* XDS plugin: Improve performance of VDS reading.
* jfjoch_writer: Significant improvement on how file systems I/O are handled through a dedicated pass-through VFD.
* jfjoch_writer: Clean-up of HDF5 routines to better handle issues.
