    Today the animation toolbar drives every result layer through
    a single hardcoded controller. RENDERING_RULE_MODEL_PLAN.md
    §11.2 calls for an explicit per-layer Temporal tab where the
    user can pick:
      - the time field (for vector layers — datetime attribute)
      - a playback mode (Single instant / Range / Cumulative)
      - frame rate (fps)
      - loop / ping-pong on reaching the end
      - playback range start / end

    The status-bar animation widget reads this spec instead of
    the hardcoded controller config. Result layers default to
    Single mode + the file's full time range; vector layers
    default to disabled (no temporal column).

    Slice Z.13-data ships the value type + JSON round-trip. The
    tab UI widget + LayerStyleDialog integration is Z.13-ui (a
    separate slice). Storing TemporalSpec on each OpenSWMMVisLayer
    is Z.13-attach.
