* Correct the gradient evaluator's documented setup cost to O(n log n)
* Add a Cyclic gradient attribute that wraps the stop list through the 1|0 boundary back to the first stop
* Show the wrap segment's midpoint diamond in the color picker spectrum strip when cyclic
* Keep the wrap midpoint diamond tracking the pointer by a wrapped strip width when dragged past the ends
* Give the Gradient tool's viewport overlay the same cyclic wrap midpoint diamond and drag behavior
* Correct the docs claiming the final stop's midpoint is always ignored now that cyclic uses it
* Move the gradient cyclic toggle onto the Ends row as a Link icon checkbox
* Update labels
* Register GradientHueDirection with the Data panel so its attribute column renders
* Reword wrap segment to wrapped interval and stray segment usages to interval
* Clean up comments
* Fix the color picker write-back losing default position elision and the blend path guessing the cyclic flag
* Add an OkLab gradient interpolation space and make it the new default
* Fix the Properties panel fill row resetting the gradient interpolation space to the default
* Add OkLch, Lab, LCh, and HSL gradient interpolation spaces
* Add a hue direction attribute and picker choice for polar gradient interpolation spaces
* Add an HSV gradient interpolation space
* Rename the sRGB Linear and sRGB Gamma gradient spaces to RGB Linear and RGB Gamma
* Divide the gradient interpolation dropdown between absolute and relative color spaces
* Rename the OkLch gradient interpolation space to OkLCh for channel-notation capitalization
* Shorten the color picker popover's hue direction row label to Arc
* Call the Gradient Interpolation node's parameter Space and extend the picker tooltip title to match
* Rename the gradient interpolation attribute and type family to gradient space
* Rename the gradient tool's gradient space transform to gradient to viewport transform
* Add serde aliases and a node replacement covering the gradient space renames
* Give the gradient space choices artist-facing labels and reorder the dropdown sections
* Add a Gradient Hue Direction node and its attribute read node
* Say interpolate instead of blend for gradient stop color traversal in docs and tooltips
* Label the polar perceptual gradient spaces as Perceptual Hue and group the dropdown sections by geometry
* Add a migration alias covering the gradient space attribute reader rename
* Carry the gradient hue direction attribute through boolean operations
* Register GradientHueDirection wire types in the node registry
* Build dropdown menu entries from choice type metadata
* Add a gradient interpolation color space attribute, blending stops in linear light by default
* Add a Space interpolation dropdown to the color picker popover
* Stamp legacy gradient ramps with their implicit gamma interpolation during deserialization
* Resolve color-interpolation from SVG style blocks and fix cascade order among repeated declarations
* Build radio widget entries from choice type metadata so variants display their icons
* Route the node properties enum radio through the shared choice type entry builder
* Rename spread method to gradient spread so it matches the other gradient attribute names
* Keep the legacy gradient struct's spread method field name matching its on-disk key
* Add a spread method field to GradientRamp, carried at runtime as the gradient item's attribute
* Retire the Fill node's spread method input, folding its value into the gradient ramps on document upgrade
* Add an Ends spread method radio to the color picker popover, replacing the Gradient tool's control bar radio
* Update the demo art
* Introduce the GradientRamp exchange struct as the serialized TaggedValue::Gradient payload
* Unify FillChoice and FillChoiceUI into one enum generic over color format, carrying GradientRamp stops
* Rename the TaggedValue::Gradient variant to GradientRamp to match its payload

* Rework Gradient into a newtype of List<Color> with optional position and midpoint attributes
* Fix Vello stopless-gradient fallback coverage, empty legacy gradient tables, the node docs gradient swatch, NaN position elision, and wired setter input overwrites
