Reference lines:
- Side-panel cluster (ref_line_widget.py): list of lines with Add/Edit/Remove/
Clear and a properties dialog (value, colour, line style, tag)
- Lines own their state as RefLineProps (held by MainWindow), drawn with a
triangle drag-handle; dragging writes the value back and refreshes the list
- Replaces the old centre-only add-and-drag-the-whole-line approach
Comparison:
- Time-axis mode selector: Absolute (seconds) vs Relative (% of each track's own
length), so a long track and a short one line up by song position. Pure view
transform (plotspec.apply_x_mode), no recompute
- Overlaid different-length tracks now autorange their x union in absolute mode
instead of clipping to the first track's span

Major refactor from popup-based to persistent PyQt5 interface:
- Extract plotting logic from AudioFile class into separate PlottingEngine
- Create AudioVisualizationWidget with embedded matplotlib canvas
- Add AnalysisResultsManager as bridge between processing and GUI
- Replace simple drag-drop widget with professional splitter layout
- Preserve legacy batch processing mode with execution guard
Features:
- Drag-and-drop audio analysis (.mp3/.wav/.flac support)
- File list with metadata display (BPM, amplitudes, track info)
- Persistent visualization area (no more matplotlib popups)
- Multi-file support with click-to-view functionality
- Threading-ready architecture for future background processing
Technical improvements:
- Clean separation of concerns (analysis/visualization/GUI)
- Qt signal-slot communication pattern
- Modular component design ready for multithreading
- Proper import guards prevent legacy code interference
