Subject: [PATCH] scoring benches: self-inflicted + deaths counter verified
 (night 13)

scoreself2.sh -- one rig covering three unverified items, using a SELF-DESTRUCT
to reach the same paths an eject does without the panic button that defeated
five earlier rigs.

VERIFIED:
  chart '-1 each self-inflicted point'  type=0 award=-40.00 x11, total -440
  self-kill negation (#134)             type=2 award=-539.00, kills NOT incremented
  deaths counter                        PLAYER_DEAD deaths=1 tally=1

OPEN, found by arithmetic: the -500 death cost fires on a COMBAT death (prior
run: victim total exactly -500.00) but NOT on a self-kill -- A's total is
exactly -440 + -539 = -979, with no -500 in it, despite advDamage=1 and the
role bound.  The cost is dispatched by a DIRECT Player::ScoreMessageHandler()
base call, bypassing the BT handler, so it never reaches the matchlog and only
the totals expose it.

+# Two chart rows and one field complaint are still unverified:
+#   "-1 each self-inflicted point of armor damage"  -- code-verified only
+#     (ScoreInflictedMessageHandler's negate-if-target-is-self arm); every
+#     previous run reported negative(self)=0 because nobody self-damaged.
+#   "-1000 destroying your own 'Mech by ejecting"   -- arithmetic only
+#     (-500 death cost + a self-kill negating its own ~500 award).  A
+#     SELF-DESTRUCT reaches the same two paths without needing the panic
+#     button, which five rigs failed to trigger.
+#   "kills/deaths counts were screwy" -- kills=1 is verified, deathTally is not.
+#
+# A self-destructs (BT_SELF_DAMAGE, inflictor = SELF); B stands off.
+# Composition from night12/scoreself.sh, which was built for #134.
