player bar: the track-change morph stops being a coin flip

Two independent fragilities each collapsed the shape→shape morph back to
a grow-from-dots, which is why it only sometimes worked.

The hold was 600ms against an arrival whose timing is DECODE time: the
same track costs ~5ms once the session holds its waveform in memory but
hundreds of ms to over a second on the first cold decode. 2000ms covers
the cold case with room; fresh-stream searches take well past that, so
the loading story still gets the lane.

And the hold bailed on a bar-count mismatch — but the lane's width follows
the song TITLE now, so switching between a long and a short name resizes
the lane mid-gap and the guard threw the held shape away. Held and morphed
heights are refitted to the new count instead (nearest neighbour — it is a
moving start point, on screen for under a second).

Four consecutive cached switches measured after the fix: minimum lane
height 15.1 on every one (dots are ~2, the old dip hit ~5). Gapless
playback is untouched — the hold and morph are pure painting, and the
sink-append path never waits on the lane.
