The theme effects stored their animation time in a 32-bit float taken
from the ImGui clock. After a few days of uptime a float can no longer
resolve a single frame step, so every oscillation, drift and sweep began
to stutter, snapping forward a frame at a time instead of moving
smoothly.
- The clock is now held as a double, and the phase/oscillator maths runs
through a small set of shared helpers that reduce the argument in
double before returning a float. A float clock at 30 days steps by a
quarter second per ULP; the double clock stays frame-accurate.
- Hue cycling, the rainbow and gradient borders, shimmer, specular
glare, glow pulse, edge trace, embers, the sandstorm and the viewport
wash all use the shared helpers, so their timing no longer drifts with
uptime.
Tests: the helpers advance smoothly after seven days, pin the legacy
float breakdown at 30 days, and stay in range for negative offsets.
