Version: [4341] LinkScape 1.3

- **Straighter raster corridors**: Fixed an issue in 1.2 with raster
corridors being generated with inefficient path. Newly added
Bresenham/line-of-sight smoothing rebuilds each corridor path after
BFS, eliminating the needless right-angle detours that appeared on
long connections while still honoring passable masks and minimum
widths.
- **Ordered path reconstruction**: The raster solver now tracks
predecessors per pixel, guaranteeing contiguous, direction-aware paths
that respect max search distance constraints.
- **Obstacle-mask fix**: Patch-size filtering now happens before
obstacle masking, so filtered-out sliver patches no longer block
corridors.
- **Benefit-aware “Largest Patch”**: Both raster and vector strategies
now select the corridor with the best benefit-per-cost score (added
habitat area ÷ corridor area) rather than the cheapest link, meaning
adjacent large patches are prioritized when budget allows.
