Judge the keep rule against the camera's own target, and aim Mantas at 35 %
configureSettle() read the camera's auto-exposure target, tolerance and
limits before the camera was opened, so it got none of them and judged every
frame against its 50 +- 5 % default until the first profile switch - on
every tower. It now runs again once the camera is open. On the Alviums this
brings their own IntensityControllerTolerance and, at night, the at-limit
verdict from their chunk data into play.

The gige recipe aims at 35 % instead of 50: at 50 the sky over the horizon
burnt out at noon on rietschen, where smoke would rise. The old program ran
these cameras at 23-25. Tests 542/542 (mock).
