fix(capture): drop first and last 6in from width samples

sampleWidths used floor(L/6)+1 stations from t=0, so tapered tips
dominated min/max. Sample only interior stations at 6, 12, … ≤ L−6.
When L≤12 there is no interior span: every6In stays empty and
min/max/avg stay 0. CAPTURE.md Widths bullet matches.

sqft, bdft, scale, and inventory PNG are unchanged.
