SAVER_GRAPHICS: interpret the capture reason, not a public stop-code contract

SAVER_GRAPHICS (0x0000F008) classifies a diagnostic capture where the SAVER producer classified the capture in the graphics/presentation path. SAVER values are diagnostic categories; the public symbol does not provide a stable bugcheck-parameter contract that identifies one defective driver by itself.

Capture the evidence that belongs to this category

Preserve GPU/adapter and driver, present history, VidPN/display state, scheduler events, compositor state, and any device-removal evidence. Also keep the Windows build, dump type, producer, WER/event correlation, and relevant process or package identity.

What the investigation should prove

The goal is to correlate the capture with one graphics transition such as present, mode set, device loss, or scheduler timeout. Use the dump and surrounding events to find the first concrete blocked transition or failing component; do not manufacture parameter meanings from the numeric SAVER value.
