fix: address review findings on prewarm gating and gitignore

Revalidate the section under RenderLock before the idle prewarm scan,
add a largest-block floor to its heap gate, rebuild the differential
baseline when the grayscale scratch allocation fails after an async
refresh, and anchor generated-file gitignore patterns to the repo root.
