Refactor feature extraction to use transformed frames in VideoEditor

This commit updates the feature extraction process to utilize the transformed frames that users see, rather than the original frames. It includes a new method for mapping coordinates from transformed frames back to original coordinates, ensuring accurate tracking. Additionally, feedback messages have been improved to reflect the success or failure of feature extraction based on the visible area.
