The old displacement-map approach shifted entire rows by a parabolic
profile, creating a circle/barrel distortion. The actual problem is
a linear vertical shear: after deskew aligns horizontal lines, the
vertical column edges are still tilted by ~0.5°.
New approach:
- Detect shear angle from strongest vertical edge slope (not curvature)
- Apply cv2.warpAffine shear to straighten vertical features
- Manual slider: -2.0° to +2.0° in 0.05° steps
- Slider initializes to auto-detected shear angle
- Ground truth question: "Spalten vertikal ausgerichtet?"
