Docs: the ROADMAP's 2026-10-19 row, and the rows merges of conflicting PRs left twice

ROADMAP: a progress row and status line for the community PRs of 2026-10-19; the reproducible-bytes and inch-ruler rows appeared twice. gaps.md: G6 held four interleaved versions of its Missing line; it now says what is left (a scripting surface). target-app-parity.md: three copies of the Type evidence bullet, merged into one with every sentence. type-parity.md and ui-parity.md: a row and a shorter copy of it.

     Simplify and Add Anchor Points record no undo step when they change no path, and a path they leave as it is keeps its live shape.
     The Simplify dialog also has Corner Point Angle Threshold, Convert to Straight Lines and Show Original Path. The threshold is a slider from 0° to 180° and opens at 150°: an anchor whose corner is sharper than the threshold stays a corner, so moving the slider right keeps more corners, and the dialog sends `cornerAngle` as 180° less the threshold. While Preview is on, Show Original Path draws the paths as they were before the preview in a wide, faint band of their layer's color under the selection's outlines.
     Object › Path › Simplify opens a slider under the selection ([Manually simplify paths](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/draw-shapes-and-paths/modify-paths/manually-simplify-paths.html), [Auto simplify paths](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/draw-shapes-and-paths/modify-paths/auto-simplify-paths.html)) with Auto-Simplify, a rail from the fewest anchor points to the closest fit, and More Options, which opens the dialog at the slider's tolerance. The rail's levels are VectorCraft's own scale (`object.path.simplify {level}`): level 50, where the slider opens, is 1 pt, and every 10 levels halve or double the tolerance, from 32 pt at 0 to 1/32 pt at 100. Auto-Simplify picks the lowest level whose tolerance is at most 1/400 of the selection's longer side, or level 100 when that side is under 12.5 pt. The dialog's "Open this dialog with these settings next time" makes the menu item open the dialog on the settings of its last OK.

 - **Devanagari shaping:** with an OpenType Devanagari font, Ka, virama and Ssa (क्ष) form one conjunct glyph, Ra and virama before a consonant (र्क) become a reph drawn after it, the i matra (कि) is drawn before its consonant, and Ka with a nukta is drawn like the precomposed क़ (U+0958), as [Microsoft's Devanagari shaping specification](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/script-development/devanagari) describes. Each syllable is one cluster of its source bytes, and the arrow keys stop at its ends. A click inside a syllable drawn with several glyphs puts the caret at the syllable's nearer end, in point, area and path type. Tests: `crates/text/src/tests_devanagari.rs`; they print SKIPPED when no such font is installed.
 - **Vertical punctuation:** fullwidth `！` (U+FF01) and `？` (U+FF1F) use their nominal glyph upright when no vertical alternate is present, following the Tu fallback in [Unicode UAX #50 §3.1](https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr50/#vo). Code-built test fonts cover point and area type with and without `vert` alternates, retain the rotated fallback for a bracket and long vowel mark, and leave horizontal type unchanged. Tests: `crates/text/src/tests_vertical.rs`.
   - Free Distort's dialog (Effect › Distort & Transform › Free Distort…) shows a box in the proportions of the first selected object's bounds with a handle on each corner. Dragging a handle moves that corner. A handle focused by a click or Tab moves 1% of the box with each arrow key, and 10% with Shift. Reset puts the four corners back on the box. The preview and OK run `effect.apply`, or `effect.setParams` when the dialog edits an applied effect, and the Appearance panel's inline editor opens the dialog with Edit….

 - **Kerning across style runs:** characters that differ only in fill, stroke, underline, strikethrough, overprint, character style name, leading, baseline shift, rotation, Character Alignment, kerning, or tracking that keeps or drops ligatures alike are shaped together, so restyling one character keeps the font's kerning pairs with its neighbors. A character with manual kerning that follows one with automatic kerning keeps the font's kerning with it (unless All Caps or Small Caps sets it as two letters, as ß becomes SS), and its value replaces the font's kerning after it. A ligature does not form across a change of style, and a change of font, size or OpenType features still shapes the characters apart.

   The Character panel's Small Caps, Superscript and Subscript buttons and the panel menu's items of the same names turn small caps and the superscript or subscript position on and off for the selected type, or for the text the Type tool has selected (`text.setFormat` or `text.setRangeStyle` `{smallCaps, position}`), in Document Setup's proportions. Turning Superscript on turns Subscript off, and turning Subscript on turns Superscript off. A button or item shows as on when the first selected character (at a caret, the character before it) has its attribute.
 - **Paragraph alignment:** the shared Paragraph/Properties alignment row leaves every button unselected when the paragraphs it acts on differ. Auto resolves per paragraph; choosing an alignment uses the existing command. Headless paragraph_mixed_alignment_* regressions exercise mixed → Center → Undo, caret/uniform states, Unicode range boundaries, Auto/direction, split runs and grouped text. These regressions and full integration CI pass. Original captures confirm mixed → Center → Undo in the existing alignment-button layout. The [public Paragraph panel guide](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/design-with-text/edit-format-text/paragraph-panel-overview.html) lists the seven controls, but does not specify mixed-state rendering. Other paragraph fields remain outside this change; scores and hours unchanged.
   For Auto Size area type in columns, the bisection for the frame's height runs on the lines of the one-column layout, and its result is checked with at most two layouts of the columns. When the text wraps around objects or does not fit the one-column layout, or when the check fails, the columns are laid out at every step of the bisection, as before. Typing at the start of a story of 50,000 characters in 2 columns took 1,670 ms a keystroke and now takes 292 ms (release build, `auto_height_in_columns_typing_timing`).
