Delivers the full Template Designer GUI Foundation epic (canvas dimensions,
text placement, properties panel, save/reopen XML templates) plus the
overdue high-volume render benchmark spike, all verified against the actual
built .exe per Sprint 1's DoD edit. The benchmark found the render path
misses the 100k-record/10-minute target by 5x-10x+ (code/BENCHMARK.md),
logged as a new high-priority backlog story and technical debt entry for
Sprint 3. Sprint Review confirmed all 5 stories against acceptance criteria;
Retrospective confirmed full follow-through on all four Sprint 1 actions
with no new kit-level changes needed.

Sprint Review (product-owner): verified all 5 committed stories against
acceptance criteria (goal met, two tracked caveats), updated the backlog
with verification notes and two new follow-up stories, and flagged a
process-improvement item.

Sprint Retrospective (scrum-master): named team-level strengths to keep
(dependency-ordered batch swarming; leave-it-better-than-you-found-it
and honest gap reporting), checked for anti-patterns (none found beyond
one named near-miss), and proposed a Definition of Done edit requiring
verification against the actual built artifact for any story that
changes launch/packaging/config-resolution behavior — directly
addressing how the license-key bug reached "Done" undetected.

User approved the proposed edit; applied to
templates/definition_of_done.md and marked Applied in
logs/process_improvement_log.md.
