Jesse.MarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 4adf149ba5 v0.8.0.10 — playtest fixes: clearance rulings, the log, the map, and a save file
From the first two multiplayer playtests of v0.8.0.9, each traced before fixing.

The engine:

- A train on a card BEHIND the one departing no longer triggers a clearance
  ruling or an opposite-direction bar (#26). Reproduced from the exported
  save: X15 was held over X18 behind it, and X18 then collided into the full
  Whistle Post. Games in progress holding a ruling the engine no longer asks
  for will not resume (28 of 40 recorded four-seat games); shipped as is at
  Jesse's call.
- `mainlineModified` carries the card's previous kind, so the log can say
  what a Realignment converted (#27).

The screen:

- The turn chart and the Division map name the player whose move is on
  screen while bot turns replay, not the live actor (#25).
- The owning player's name is no longer outlined by the turn arrow's stroke,
  which made it unreadable (#24).
- A Mainline card flashes on the map when a Realignment changes it (#28).
- The history is held back with the board and revealed step by step, instead
  of arriving whole while the board is still catching up (#29).
- A ruling made by holding the office reads "Superintendent Player X" (#30),
  and no line names a player twice (#31).
- A seated player can download their own game as a save file: the play
  page's Save replay button, fed by GET /api/save?token=… (#32). The StartOS
  action cannot do this — an action result is text only.

/**
* Events — protocol.md §3.
*
* An event is a FACT: ordered, append-only, and standalone. Events NARRATE the game — they drive the
* log, the sounds and the replay's captions.
*
* THEY DO NOT RECONSTRUCT IT. This header claimed `state = fold(events)` until v0.4.0 and it was
* never true. `applyIntent` does go through `reduce`, but the phase driver in `advance.ts` mutates
* state and THEN emits a descriptive event, so fourteen of the forty-six types below are never
* reduced — the clock, and the whole Mainline phase, which is every train movement in the game.
*
* The canonical record is `{ seed, history: Intent[] }`, replayed by `fromSave`. That is what save,
* restore, undo, restart recovery and post-game replay all run on. See
* `docs/architecture/protocol.md` §3, and `test/events.test.ts`, which pins the unreduced set so
* that closing the gap is a deliberate act rather than a surprise.
*
* DESIGN RULE (overview.md, post-game replay): events must render STANDALONE. Carry the from/to,
* not just an id the renderer has to resolve against live state — otherwise a replay viewer has to
* reconstruct the whole board to draw one frame.
