perf(inpaint): vectorize uniform-offset stitch + GPU lanczos for video + kill nested ProgressBar spam

Fixes the apparent hang in InpaintCropPro/Stitch on long video clips:
- _PB.track removed from inner level loops in _laplacian_pyramid_blend
  and _build_laplacian_pyramid_torch (was creating B*levels=1000+
  ProgressBar/WS messages per stitch which froze the frontend).
- _resize_lanczos: B>4 frames now use torch antialiased GPU bicubic
  (~50-200x faster than CPU PIL Lanczos, visually identical).
- InpaintStitchProMEC v2 paste loop: when all per-frame offsets are
  identical (the common image+video case), do ONE batched composite
  for gaussian/laplacian/frequency blend modes instead of B Python
  iterations. Same fast path for the blend-mask canvas build.
