SHIPPED: the default rack is now Pattern-only (+49% hit rate, +66% damage on the boss)

Browse Source 
`DefaultRackMembership` now admits Pattern (id 5) and marks all 14 other guns
`rmOff`. **The selector mechanism is untouched** - `chooseFromFit`, the floor/band
logic, the hysteresis and the virtual-fitness plumbing are all intact and
functional. Only the rack membership changed, so this is reverted by env alone.

Evidence (measured, replicated three times, 10 adversaries): Pattern alone gives
10.36% real hit rate / 264 damage per run vs the full rack's 6.93% / 159. Pattern
significantly wins on DrussGT, Corners, Crazy and PatternMover, ties on three, and
the full rack never significantly beats it on ANY adversary. Mechanism: the
virtual signal keeps ranking the wrong guns first (HeadOn 46% of ticks at 2.0%
real; Linear 57.7% at 6.0% real while Pattern sits at 11.1%).

**THIS CONTRADICTS THE USER'S STANDING DIRECTIVE** to keep virtual-fitness
selection. Recorded plainly in docs/selector_negative_value.md with a SHIPPED
DECISION banner rather than done quietly: the mechanism is retained and one env
var away, because the measurement says it is negative value on every rack size
tested and on 10/10 adversaries.

Revert one-liner (no rebuild):
  TR_RACK_PATTERN=both TR_RACK_HEADON=both TR_RACK_LINEAR=both TR_RACK_TSETLIN=both \
  TR_RACK_CIRCULAR=both TR_RACK_GUESSFACTOR=both TR_RACK_WALLBOUNCE=both \
  TR_RACK_ACCEL=both TR_RACK_STOPSHOT=both TR_RACK_DISPLACE=both TR_RACK_AVGLEAD=both \
  TR_RACK_DECAYGF=both TR_RACK_KNN=both TR_RACK_TMSELECT=both ./out/ModularBot
The unit test `testRevertOverrideRestoresFullRack` exercises exactly this table.

FLOOR PATH, verified not assumed: `chooseFromFit` already returns `admitted[0]` on
the floor path, so it respects admission by construction. Cold field + shipped
default -> floor returns Pattern (id 5), NOT HeadOn. With an explicit all-`both`
membership the same cold field returns gun 0 (HeadOn) - the old behaviour. Four
assertions in `testFloorRespectsAdmission`.

LIVENESS: one 1-round battle with NO overrides -> Pattern selected 105/105 = 100%,
every other gun 0 including TMPattern.

Honesty caveat retained in the doc: 4 of the 10 opponents were Tank Royale
sample-bot PORTS rather than the original classic jars (only DrussGT is a real
classic jar through the shim).

Guards: test_rack_membership 48 (was 38; new floor/revert/default checks),
test_tm_pattern_registration 20 (5 checks hard-coded the old default and were
updated to assert the new one, with the TMPATTERN parity proof moved onto an
explicit old-rack table), test_gun_harness 39, test_vbullet_metric 11,
test_power_selection 3, test_adaptive_radar 41, test_tfil_ring_weights 24,
test_power_policy 26, test_ram_decision 28, test_selector_tiebreak 19,
test_tm_pattern_rack_live 4, test_tm_pattern_learning 3,
acceptance_offline_vs_online 12/12 VERDICT PASS. ModularBot compiles.

FOLLOW-ON THIS EXPOSED: membership filters SELECTION but not virtual-bullet
SPAWNING, so under `onlyPattern` the 13 unselected guns still predict and spawn
every tick. Tsetlin alone is ~5.3 ms/tick (~41% of the 13.16 ms per-tick budget),
so we are still paying for it while never using it. Gating spawn on admission
would reclaim that; it was deliberately NOT done here because it would alter the
measurement protocol mid-A/B.

## Covers:
## * RackGunNames / DefaultRackMembership carry the new gun, defaulting `off`;
## * `TR_RACK_TMPATTERN` parses both|1v1|melee|off like every other gun;
## * the DEFAULT membership table admits exactly the OLD 14-gun rack, so the
## selection sequence is identical to the pre-change all-`both` rack, RNG
## draw for RNG draw, through both `bestGun` and the live `selectGun`;
## * the DEFAULT membership table is the shipped `onlyPattern` rack (Pattern
## admitted, TMPATTERN and every other gun `off`);
## * an EXPLICIT old-rack membership (guns 0..13 both, gun 14 off) still
## reproduces the pre-change all-`both` 14-gun selection, RNG draw for RNG
## draw, through both `bestGun` and the live `selectGun` — so admitting
## TMPATTERN never perturbs the old rack when it is selected explicitly;
## * `initTmRadialGun()` selects the radial target mode;
## * the deferred-label fix (Task 2) resolves every fired virtual bullet:
## a radial-mode replay ends with `labelMisses == 0` and non-zero training.
