prepareSources applies every face, mark, and region protection before the
compiler runs and fails closed when one cannot be honored: all face modes,
tracking with interpolation and grown holds over lost detections, reframe_out
crops with blur fallback, synthetic identity only through a licensed provider
(blur fallback otherwise), inpainting with a quality floor that falls back to
a cover, and person-bound marks re-found next to the face. The gate runs on
the render output: classifier at the profile rate plus cuts, face tracking
matched to people locally, pixel verification of every recorded protection,
consent and age proof (always for paid video), text and technical checks.
Auto-fix proposes only compliance repairs and stops after three rounds.
