+-- The player's own camera controls: zoom everywhere, and the battle's orbit.
+--
+-- This mod has four cameras, and by the time a wheel notch arrives they all
+-- want it. So one module owns the INPUTS and answers the only question that
+-- matters -- which camera is this aimed at -- rather than each camera
+-- growing its own wheel handler and racing the others for the event:
+--
+--   a staged battle      the camera the fight is shot with (BattleCam): the
+--                        wheel and Q/E work its lens, and the right stick,
+--                        a drag or the mouse walk it around the arena.
+--
+--   the 3RD rung         the boom behind the player's shoulder
+--                        (ThirdPerson): the wheel, Q/E and a pinch let it
+--                        out and pull it in.
+--
+--   an orbit rung        the engine's own survey zoom, which the wheel has
+--                        always driven -- so here the module mostly gets
+--                        out of the way, and only ADDS the two keys and the
+--                        pinch that the engine has no handler for.
+--
+--   the 1ST rung         nothing. The eye is in the player's head; there is
+--                        no distance to change, and a pinch there would
+--                        silently wind the survey zoom for whenever they
+--                        stepped back out. Inputs pass through untouched.
+--
+-- Every claim is answered by a GATE rather than by a mode flag, and every
+-- wrap forwards whatever it does not claim -- so with voxel mode off, and
+-- on every screen that is not the overworld or a battle, each byte flows
+-- exactly where it always did.
+--
+-- Installed AFTER FirstPerson (see main.lua), which makes these wraps the
+-- outer ones: a battle's controls get first refusal on the mouse and the
+-- touch screen, which is right, because while a fight is staged the
+-- free-roam look is not driving anyway.

+--
+-- PINCH_SLACK is how far apart two fingers must travel, as a ratio of
+-- their starting gap, before the gesture counts as a pinch at all -- below
+-- it a two-finger tap wobbles rather than zooms.
+--
+-- SURVEY_PINCH is how many of the engine's integer survey steps one
+-- doubling of the finger gap is worth. The survey ladder is coarse (whole
+-- pixels per world pixel), so a pinch has to be geared down or the first
+-- centimetre of travel crosses the whole range.
