/**
 * The lobby — Phase 4 of `docs/architecture/multiplayer.md` (§12 steps 17-20), fully specified in
 * `docs/architecture/lobby-and-sessions.md`.
 *
 * Pure logic, no sockets, no filesystem, no in-memory registry — same split `session.ts` already
 * draws (`http.ts` wires connections and persistence to this; `persistence.ts` is the only thing
 * that touches disk). A `Lobby` exists only BEFORE `Lobby.Start`: once the config locks and the
 * `GameSession` is built, this module is done with that game — everything after is `session.ts`.
 *
 * WHY A SEPARATE FILE FROM `session.ts`. `session.ts` is already the "running game" module and is
 * large; a lobby's concerns — seating, host rights, the join secret's door versus a game code's
 * discovery, config locking — share almost no code with running a Stage clock, and mixing them would
 * make both harder to read for no reuse gained.

 * used to be appended as people joined, so a bot dropped into a later chair padded the array with

 * `Lobby.Start`, and compaction would have shifted the `player` index every `PlayerSession`
 * already carries (`joinLobby` stamps it at join time, and `/api/stream` and `/api/intent` route
 * by it) — quietly handing a player somebody else's railroad.
