CydandClaude Fable 5 e610a2a3aa 4.10 reconstruction: real spawn factory path -> Mech ctor frontier ...

BTPlayer::CreatePlayerVehicle reconstructed (faithful; BT411's BT_SPAWN_XZ/
BT_SPAWN_ENEMY bring-up scaffolding dropped): builds the Mech::MakeMessage from
the mission game-model resource and hands it to MakeAndLinkViewpointEntity.
Mech::Make = new Mech(creation_message); a staged Mech ctor chains the real
JointedMover base (so the model skeleton/segments stream from BTL4.RES) then
Fails.

This validates the entire spawn factory chain live: CreatePlayerVehicle ->
MakeAndLinkViewpointEntity -> registry -> Mech::Make -> new Mech -> JointedMover
base ctor (streams the mech model) -> halts at the Mech ctor (mech.cpp:66).

The Mech ctor (@004a1674, 5690 bytes -- the largest function in the game) plus
the subsystem roster is the next MAJOR milestone, not a brick: it needs the full
1995 Mech member layout derived first (MECH.HPP is still reserved[331]; BT411's
decomp uses raw offset pokes that can't compile fresh), the subsystem class
hierarchy (only GAUSS/PPC/SENSOR survive in the 4.10 archive; the rest are the
measured "917 missing functions"), and the segment-table walk. Plan + scope in
MECH.NOTES.md.
