Add TeslaRel410 (original 4.10 games under DOSBox-X emulation)

Browse Source 
- Ecosystem doc: new section on the TeslaRel410 project — custom
  DOSBox-X fork HLE-emulating the Division VPX board to run the
  original, unmodified Tesla 4.10 BattleTech/Red Planet DOS binaries
  on current Windows 10 pod hardware (RIO COM1 / plasma COM2
  passthrough). Networking facts for SiteLink: WATTCP (real TCP/IP)
  via NetNub over emulated NE2000 bridged by pcap -> routable in
  principle; BOOTP is broadcast -> site-local provisioning.
- Clarified BT411 and RP411 as the two native Win32 Tesla 4.10
  reconstructions (per operator), complementary to the emulation path.
- Brainstorm: new game-linking subsection for the emulated originals +
  open question 11 (NetNub cross-subnet addressing, 30 Hz sim latency
  tolerance).
- CTCL naming note: provenance question is out with VWE veterans.
