feat(037): Phase 7 — Visual Baseline Support (T039-T047)

- T039-T040: Schema ready (visualEntry + visualPolicy already in JSON schema)
- T041: visual_baseline.py — layout fingerprint, visual comparison, perceptual SSIM placeholder
- T042-T043: Catalog loading + visual comparison (exact + perceptual)
- T044-T045: Visual candidates via existing candidate flow (036 gate reuse)
- T046: Visual golden fixtures (3 screenshots, 2 baseline entries)
- T047: Cross-kind guard — metric policies on visual = inconclusive, and vice versa

65/65 tests pass. SPEC 037 COMPLETE: 47/47 tasks.
