feat(sequence): create v2 timeline with placeholder effects

- Add PlaceholderEffectV2 for unported effects (logs TODO warning)
- Create timeline_v2.seq with 8 sequences using v2 syntax
- Explicit node routing (source -> temp1 -> temp2 -> sink)
- Uses: HeptagonEffectV2, GaussianBlurEffectV2, PlaceholderEffectV2
- Compiler generates valid C++ for all sequences
- All tests passing (36/36)

Timeline structure validated. Placeholders allow demo to run while
complex effects (rotating_cube, hybrid_3d, particles) await porting.

handoff(Claude): V2 timeline operational, ready for MainSequence integration
