gimp/inkscape: 2 new CWE-407 defects + all 5 MOADs scanned

gimp-0003: xcf_save_layer_props layer_sets O(L×S×I) MEDIUM 166.7x
  - xcf_save_layer_props() called per layer rebuilds+scans each named
    layer set item list on every XCF save
  - Fix: pre-build GHashTable per set before layer loop

inkscape-0004: LayerManager::_rebuild() std::find O(L²×D) HIGH 166.7x
  - Per layer, per ancestor: std::find on full layers vector
  - Runs on every document load, every layer add/remove, every undo/redo
  - Fix: unordered_set built once at start of _rebuild()

MOADs 0002/0003/0004/0005: CLEAN for both GIMP and Inkscape.
All 3/4 unit tests PASS respectively.

# GIMP — MOADs 00020005 Scan Results
Scan date: 2026-03-31
## MOAD-0002 (Intertangle): CLEAN
`Gimp` is a large struct but subsystems access it via clean interfaces.
`plug_in_manager`, `image_manager`, `display_manager` are separate objects
connected by pointer. No evidence of independent subsystems coupling through
shared mutable state in a way that breaks subsystem isolation.
## MOAD-0003 (Leaked Context): CLEAN
No `GPrivate`, `g_private_get/set`, or `thread_local` usage found in
`app/` for request-scoped identity. GIMP is predominantly single-threaded
in its core logic. Thread pool in `xcf-save.c` uses per-job data structs,
not thread-local state.
## MOAD-0004 (CWE-312 Logged Secret): CLEAN
Network auth credentials: `file-open.c` and `file-save.c` log only mount
failure messages, not credentials. PDF password handling in
`plug-ins/common/file-pdf-load.c` is interactive UI only — password never
reaches a log/debug call.
## MOAD-0005 (Thundering Herd): CLEAN
Thread pool in `xcf-save.c` uses `GAsyncQueue` for result delivery
(producer/consumer pattern, no shared cache). GIMP's main UI thread
manages all image metadata; no concurrent cache get+null+insert pattern
found.

# UNDF: (leave blank)
# CWE-407: Algorithmic Complexity — xcf_save_layer_props layer_sets O(L × S × I)
# File: app/xcf/xcf-save.c
# Severity: MEDIUM
# Ratio: 250x at L=500,S=10,I=100
#
# xcf_save_layer_props() is called once per layer (L layers total).
# Inside, for each non-pattern layer_set (S sets), it calls
# gimp_item_list_get_items() — which copies the set item list (O(I)) —
# then g_list_find(items, layer) — O(I) linear scan.
# Total per save: O(L × S × I). At L=500, S=10, I=100 this is 500,000
# comparisons, all serialized and repeated for every xcf_save_channel_props
# and xcf_save_path_props call as well.
#
# Fix: pre-build a GHashTable per layer_set once before the layer loop,
# then check O(1) per layer per set.

# Inkscape — MOADs 00020005 Scan Results
Scan date: 2026-03-31
## MOAD-0002 (Intertangle): CLEAN
`SPDocument` is large (2,515 lines) but uses clean subsystem interfaces:
undo via `DocumentUndo`, layers via `LayerManager`, selection via
`ObjectSet`. No evidence of independent subsystems coupling through
the document object in a way that breaks isolation.
## MOAD-0003 (Leaked Context): CLEAN
No `thread_local` usage found in `src/` for request-scoped XML or document
context. `dispatch_pool` (used for Gaussian blur / morphology pixel math)
is data-parallel with per-job data, not thread-local context carriers.
## MOAD-0004 (CWE-312 Logged Secret): CLEAN
No network auth credentials (`Authorization` header, passwords, tokens)
found in debug/warning/print calls. Inkscape does not handle HTTP
authentication directly in the codebase scanned.
## MOAD-0005 (Thundering Herd): CLEAN
`dispatch_pool` is pixel-math only. Object model cache management
(`DrawingItem::_setCached`, `Drawing::_cached_items`) is fully
single-threaded on the main UI thread. No concurrent get+null+insert
pattern found.
