This commit introduces a flexible metadata system that allows users to add
rich metadata to plots and folders using YAML or JSON files, with full
hierarchical inheritance and plot-specific overrides. The project structure
is now better organized with clear separation of concerns.
Key improvements:
- Add intelligent file update checking with 30-second buffer to avoid unnecessary operations
- Implement efficient PDF to PNG conversion (only when source is newer)
- Add smart file copying (skip if target is up-to-date)
- Create proper folder structure using plot_root/source_name pattern
- Improve template with better text handling for long plot names
- Add text wrapping, truncation, and hover tooltips for plot names
- Remove unnecessary directory cleaning for true incremental updates
- Fix title display issue (was showing '.' instead of 'Gallery')
- Add comprehensive logging showing what's processed vs skipped
Performance benefits:
- Subsequent runs are significantly faster (only processes changed files)
- Reduces ImageMagick conversions and file I/O operations
- Maintains file system timing robustness with buffer delays
UI improvements:
- Better handling of long filenames with word wrapping
- Constrained text areas prevent overlap between thumbnails
- Hover tooltips show full names when truncated
- Responsive grid layout maintained
