#87 root cause: the level-crossing zone-record send was missing -- observers never saw damage

Browse Source 
The binary's effect watcher (FUN_0042aa2c) raises
ForceUpdate(DamageZoneUpdateModelFlag) when a zone's damageLevel CROSSES a
band-descriptor threshold (FUN_0042a5f4, master-gated on entity+0x28 & 0xc)
-- that send is how every other pod's replicant learns zone levels
mid-fight. The port's band hub kept only the graphic-state branch, so an
observer's copy sat at 0.0 until destruction: no enemy hull darkening, no
doll movement, ever (the night-10 "no armour discoloration" report).

Restored the level branch with the already-reconstructed DescriptorCrossed
(@0042a5f4) + the master gate on both branches (mesh swap still runs on
every instance). 2-node verified: A-side armour watcher pushed 114 level
changes; every replicant peak matched the master's finals to 4 decimals
(dtorso 0.9321 == 0.9321).

Render path cleared separately (gotcha #23 discharged): BT_ARMOR_FORCE 0/1
A/B captures prove the tint renders (hull -> charcoal at 1.0). Solo
perception is the authentic economy: 2-25 pt lasers vs 68-185 pt pools.

Bench: zonewalk.sh node A now carries BT_ARMOR_LOG + BT_SHOT_EVERY (the
standing zone-replication receipt) + digest_walk.py; armorpx.sh is the
force-pair pixel rig.
