Implements image import feature that adds images as new layers without clearing existing work:
**New Import Image Function** (`hooks/use-file-operations.ts`):
- `importImage()` - Creates new layer with imported image
- Preserves all existing layers and canvas state
- Automatically names layer from filename (removes extension)

- **Import** - Adds image as new layer (preserves existing work)
**User Experience:**
- File > Import Image... opens native file picker
- Only image files accepted (image/*)
- Import creates layer with image dimensions
- Layer positioned at origin (0, 0)
