Changes:
- Fixed fire power at 3.0 (removes hitRateEMA power ladder noise that
cleared exemplars mid-battle and corrupted learning)
- Relative velocity encoding: input uses (velDir - bearing) instead of
absolute velDir, so exemplars generalize across Walls' starting walls
- Fix test winner detection to use per-round score delta instead of
rank field (rank in round_ended is cumulative battle rank, not round winner)
- Keep exemplars across power changes (no longer relevant with fixed power)
- Store lastBulletSpeed at fire time for accurate EVALUATE lead prediction
Result: 2/10 rounds won vs Walls (Nim); first-round win now possible from
round 1 when aimer generalizes from relative velocity patterns.
Bottleneck: sparse exemplars in early rounds; energy bleeds at P3 cold-start.
