Jesse.MarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 441447648d v0.7.1 — a caboose is not a load, a Day that says it ended, and a train you may throw away
Four issues off the Gitea tracker, all of them things a player saw at the board. Reasoning for
every item, and what was verified how: CHANGELOG.md.

- Gitea#8: X22 Pee-Dee refused every caboose, including the one it was made up with, so setting it
  out stranded the train. All six cabooses are minted loaded because §2.2's "coloured is loaded,
  white is empty" doubles as a piece count in the supply table; one read of the flag took that
  literally. A caboose carries the crew, not freight, so it is never a load.
- Gitea#10: a Day turns over inside the phases that run themselves, so it passes between one click
  and the next — and both transient signals fade before a player reading the board notices. A modal
  stops and waits, carrying the standings, the Days left and the combined target. Suppressed on the
  first frame, on Undo stepping back across a rollover, and on the Day the game ends.
- Gitea#9, which SUPERSEDES Gitea#6 from three days ago: a Timetabled train may be tossed face-up
  to a Department slot, where a rival may pick it up — the second half of the ruling needed no code,
  since that is where every discard already goes. An Extra still may not. A New Game setting on this
  line (discardTimetabled, on by default), the plain rule on the 0.4.9 line.
- Gitea#2 is not an engine bug: the rules are implemented exactly, and running the coach pool dry is
  Jesse's ruling to keep — "part of the strategy". What was wrong is that the game said nothing. A
  blocked platform now gives its reason, from the engine's own predicate, including how many coaches
  are stranded in Classification and what brings them back.

The same four ship as v0.4.9g on the playtest line.

Closes #2
Closes #8
Closes #9
Closes #10

/**
* THE RULES BLOCK, driven identically on both screens.
*
* The lobby (`lobby.ts`) and the solitaire New Game dialog (`main.ts`) ask the same twelve questions.
* They used to ask them in two hand-written copies and had already drifted — the dialog had "where
* an Extra may start" and no optional rules, the lobby the reverse — so this module owns reading,
* writing, comparing and annotating the block, and each screen supplies only the id prefix its
* markup uses (`lb-` or `ng-`).
*
* THE MARKUP ITSELF STAYS STATIC IN `play.html`, deliberately. Generating it here would be less
* duplication, but `test/web.test.ts` drives the emitted bundle against a hand-built DOM stub with
* no HTML parser in it (there is no jsdom in this project, and adding one to test a form is a poor
* trade), and the ids in that stub come from scanning the real `play.html`. A test in the same suite
* asserts both screens carry every key below, which is the drift guard the shared markup would have
* been.
