Optimize scan process with quick/deep modes and archive tag merging

Quick scan (default):
- Pre-load all ImportTask records for O(1) duplicate checks
- Batch task creation commits (50 at a time)
- Cache import settings (5-min TTL)
- Skip pHash comparison for speed

Deep scan (on-demand):
- Full reprocessing of all files
- pHash similarity detection
- Optional thumbnail regeneration
- Optional sidecar re-application

Archive tag merging:
- Add archive tags to existing images when duplicates found
- Works for both hash and pHash duplicate detection

Also fixes:
- Add missing source/post tag icons to gallery templates

 ### Scan Tasks (`app/tasks/scan.py`)
 
-| Function | Line | Purpose |
-|----------|------|---------|
-| `scan_directory()` | 29-154 | Walks `/import` directory, creates ImportTask records, queues import tasks |
-| `_create_task_if_new()` | 157-228 | Creates ImportTask if file not already processed |
-| `recover_interrupted_tasks()` | 231-302 | Re-queues stuck tasks (called periodically by Beat) |
-| `update_batch_stats()` | 305-349 | Updates ImportBatch statistics |
+Two scan modes are available:
+- **Quick scan** (default): Pre-loads existing task/hash data for O(1) lookups. Only queues truly new files. Skips pHash comparison for speed.
+- **Deep scan** (on-demand): Full reprocessing of all files. Re-extracts metadata, runs pHash comparison, optionally regenerates thumbnails and re-applies sidecars.
+
+| Function | Purpose |
+|----------|---------|
+| `_build_task_lookup()` | Pre-loads all ImportTask records into dict for O(1) checks (single query) |
+| `_should_skip_file()` | Check if file should be skipped using pre-loaded lookup |
+| `scan_directory()` | Quick scan - walks `/import`, uses O(1) lookups, batches task creation |
+| `_flush_pending_tasks()` | Batch add tasks and commit for efficiency |
+| `deep_scan_directory()` | Deep scan - full reprocessing, pHash comparison, optional thumbnail regen |
+| `recover_interrupted_tasks()` | Re-queues stuck tasks (called periodically by Beat) |
+| `cleanup_old_tasks()` | Deletes failed/skipped tasks older than 7 days (daily) |
+| `update_batch_stats()` | Updates ImportBatch statistics |
 
 ### Import Tasks (`app/tasks/import_file.py`)
 
-| Function | Line | Purpose |
-|----------|------|---------|
-| `import_media_file()` | 23-252 | Main import task - filters, deduplicates, copies, creates thumbnail |
-| `import_archive()` | 255-407 | Extracts archive, queues child import tasks |
-| `_fail_task()` | 410-425 | Marks task as failed |
-| `_skip_task()` | 428-443 | Marks task as skipped |
-| `_add_artist_tag()` | 446-459 | Adds artist:name tag to image |
-| `_supersede_existing()` | 472-539 | Replaces smaller image with larger version |
+Import tasks support two modes based on `context.deep_scan`:
+- **Quick mode** (default): Fast duplicate detection by content hash only. Skips pHash comparison.
+- **Deep mode**: Full reprocessing with pHash comparison, optional thumbnail regen, sidecar re-application.
+
+**Archive tag merging**: When a duplicate is found (by hash or pHash similarity), if the file came from an archive, the archive tag is added to the existing image. This ensures images are tagged with all archives they appear in.
+
+| Function | Purpose |
+|----------|---------|
+| `_get_cached_settings()` | Cached import settings (5-min TTL) to avoid repeated DB reads |
+| `import_media_file()` | Main import task - supports quick/deep modes, filters, deduplicates |
+| `import_archive()` | Extracts archive, queues child import tasks with deep scan context |
+| `_fail_task()` | Marks task as failed |
+| `_skip_task()` | Marks task as skipped |
+| `_add_artist_tag()` | Adds artist:name tag to image |
+| `_add_archive_tag()` | Adds archive tag to image (for files from archives) |
+| `_regenerate_thumbnail()` | Regenerate thumbnail for existing image (deep scan) |
+| `_supersede_existing()` | Replaces smaller image with larger version |
