feat(gpx): apply elevation cleaning to totals + profile chart
Task group 2 (part a) of elevation-profile-hardening — wire the group-1
primitives into the headline stat and the chart.

- computeElevation (parse.ts): despike each segment's elevation sequence,
  then take filteredTotals; gain/loss are now noise-filtered (no more
  20–50% inflation from per-point jitter), the profile is built from the
  despiked data, and additive gainRaw/lossRaw expose the unfiltered sums.
- elevationSeries: despike per segment (no cross-trkseg interpolation)
  before downsampling, so the chart and the headline totals derive from
  the same cleaned data.
- types.ts: GpxData.elevation gains gainRaw/lossRaw (additive).

Well-formed monotonic climbs are unchanged (steps exceed the 5 m
threshold → filtered == raw); a shared noisy-track test proves jitter is
filtered and a 300 m single-point spike is interpolated out of both the
totals and the chart.

Verified: gpx 111/111; full pnpm typecheck 13/13, lint 13/13, test 11/11
(journal + planner compile with the additive fields).

## 1. Cleaning primitives
- [x] 1.1 Create `packages/gpx/src/elevation-clean.ts` with `despike(points, opts?)` — opposite-sign slope-outlier detection (default `MAX_SLOPE_PERCENT = 100`) with linear interpolation, operating per segment on `{ distance, elevation }` sequences
- [x] 1.2 Add `filteredTotals(points, opts?)` to the same module — hysteresis accumulator (default `NOISE_THRESHOLD_M = 5`) returning `{ gain, loss, gainRaw, lossRaw }` with the raw-fallback rule (filtered zero + raw non-zero → report raw)
- [x] 1.3 Add `cumulativeFilteredTotals(points, opts?)` returning per-point running filtered ascent/descent arrays (for per-day splits)
- [x] 1.4 Write `elevation-clean.test.ts`: isolated spike interpolated; steep monotonic climb untouched; no cross-segment interpolation; ±2 m jitter → 0 totals; multi-leg climb counted fully; near-flat raw fallback; cumulative arrays sum to totals
## 2. Wire into existing computations
- [x] 2.1 Update `computeElevation` in `packages/gpx/src/parse.ts` to despike per segment, then use `filteredTotals`; keep `gain`/`loss`/`profile` shape and expose `gainRaw`/`lossRaw` as additional fields (profile built from despiked data)
- [x] 2.2 Update `elevationSeries` in `packages/gpx/src/elevation-series.ts` to build from despiked points (despike per segment before flattening)
- [ ] 2.3 Update `compute-days.ts` to build its cumulative ascent/descent arrays via `cumulativeFilteredTotals` over the despiked track
- [ ] 2.4 Update/extend existing tests (`parse.test.ts`, `elevation-series.test.ts`, `compute-days.test.ts`) with a shared noisy-track fixture; assert chart series, totals, and day sums agree
## 3. Verification
- [ ] 3.1 Confirm no consumer changes needed: typecheck journal + planner; spot-check `gpx-save.server.ts`, detail loaders, and planner `computeDays` usage compile and behave
- [ ] 3.2 Manual sanity check: parse a real noisy activity GPX (e.g. an existing import fixture) and compare gain before/after — filtered value should drop noticeably and match the chart
- [ ] 3.3 Run `pnpm typecheck && pnpm lint && pnpm test` and the journal/planner e2e suites
