"Of the various methods discussed (MIG, TIG, others) which is least
likely to cause panel warpage?"

For a continous-bead weld, my vote goes to TIG. I have seen some of the
fellows here at the lab weld two soda cans together without popping a hole
in them. If you don't care about what the joint looks like, use a spot
welder. There is only local heating and virtually no panel warpage.
