Stop duplicate image settings from competing with composer

The bottom composer is the canonical image-generation control surface now. The legacy right-side control panel was still rendering schema defaults for selected image nodes, which made aspect and size controls disagree on the same operation.

Constraint: Image generation controls must stay consistent with the Popi composer UX

Rejected: Synchronize both panels | duplicating controls preserves the confusing two-source UI

Confidence: high

Scope-risk: narrow

Directive: Do not re-enable the right-side image panel unless it reads from the same composer-owned state

Tested: npm run test:run -- src/components/__tests__/ControlPanel.test.tsx

Tested: npm run test:run -- src/components/__tests__/GenerationComposer.test.tsx src/components/__tests__/ControlPanel.test.tsx

Tested: PROVIDER_MODE=popi NEXT_PUBLIC_PROVIDER_MODE=popi npm run build

Tested: Playwright localhost check for composer visible and legacy image settings absent
