Exposure + Highlights Improvements

As some of you know from the discussions on GitHub, I've never been fully happy with the Exposure and Highlights sliders. While they were mathematically correct, they just didn't look good. The highlights slider would dull the image without revealing any detail, and the exposure slider would oversaturate / overexpose everything without a nice, realistic rolloff.

This was a really hard to fix, but I'm happy to say I've finally landed on a solution that looks and feels so much better.

Here's a quick comparison

Exposure +3 stops (left is old, right is new): image

Exposure -3 stops (left is old, right is new): image

Highlights are now recovered beautifully (left is old, right is new): image

Watermarking Support

I'm excited to add a much-requested feature: Watermarking! In the export panel, you can now add your own logo or branding to your images. I've tried to make it as flexible as possible, giving you full control over the position, anchor, scale, spacing, and opacity.

Best of all, you get a live preview to see exactly how your watermark will look on the final image before you hit export.
