#118 alarm dig complete: the TechStatus bit model -- MarkGeneratorOut bridge removed

Browse Source 
The gauge-alarm "condition" is a STATUS-FLAG BIT INDEX edge-scanned by
MechTech (bit 0/1 structure, 2 leak, 3 heat, 4 AmmoBurning, 5 Jammed,
6 !HasVoltage). Conditions 4/5 -> the engEject flash = the AMMO purge/unjam
invite (flashing the very key whose streamed function is EjectAmmo) --
never pilot eject; cond 6 -> the bus-switch invite; the PANIC lamp is the
sole pilot-eject indicator.

The destruction->stateAlarm(4) bridge is REMOVED as unfounded: alarms never
read stateAlarm; state 4 is the THERMAL BREAKER state produced by
GeneratorSimulation itself (byte-matched vs FUN_004b1f7c). And the binary's
crit distributor (@0049c9a8, read raw) touches nothing electrical -- a
generator destroyed in place keeps stale Ready voltage until any transition
recomputes output via (1 - damage) x rated. The port now matches that
subtlety exactly (verified: single-gen force-kill -> no bus invite, no arm,
silent unarmed keypad -- all authentic).

KB: the full bit table + invite semantics + electrical subtlety recorded in
decomp-reference.
