Three-stage refactor of the game-engine plumbing (game logic untouched):
Stage 1 — lock-free persistence + admin serialisation. Remove the file
lock from repo/fs (the .lock file, the Read/Write-vs-*Safe duality and the
dead ReadSafe polling) and replace the two-step rename with a single atomic
rename so concurrent reads are torn-free without a lock. Serialise the
state-mutating admin writers (init/turn/banish) with one shared router
LimitMiddleware, rewritten to block on the request context instead of a
racy shared 100ms timer.
Stage 2 — remove the obsolete immediate-command path end to end. Players
submit through PUT /api/v1/order; the legacy PUT /api/v1/command path is
deleted across game (route, handler, 24 command factories, Ctrl), backend
(Commands handler/route, engineclient.ExecuteCommands), gateway (dispatch +
executeUserGamesCommand + routing entry), the FlatBuffers/model contract
(UserGamesCommand[Response]) and transcoder, plus every affected
OpenAPI/README/FUNCTIONAL/ARCHITECTURE doc. The integration proxy test is
converted to the order path.
Stage 3 — flatten the REST->engine wrapper. Replace the executor adapter,
the controller package functions and RepoController with one concrete
controller.Service; drop the single-implementation Repo and Storage
interfaces (repo.Repo / fs.FS are now concrete). Handlers depend on a thin
handler.Engine seam and own the domain->REST projection; storage is
resolved once at startup instead of per request.

Engine no longer mints its own game UUID. The orchestrator (backend)
generates the game UUID at game-create time and passes it in the
admin/init request body as the required `gameId` field, so the value
that names the engine container and host bind-mount directory also
ends up inside the engine's state.json.
The engine rejects the zero UUID with 400 and any init that conflicts
with an existing state.json with 409 (a second init on the same gameId
is also a conflict; full idempotency is not part of the contract).
Updates rest.InitRequest, openapi.yaml (schema + 409 response),
controller.GenerateGame/NewGame/buildGameOnMap signatures, the engine
HTTP handler/executor, the backend runtime worker, and the relevant
unit and contract tests. Documentation in game/README.md,
docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, backend/README.md, and backend/docs/{runtime,flows}.md
is updated in the same patch.

Replaces the manual Submit button with an auto-sync pipeline driven
by `OrderDraftStore`: every successful add / remove / move
coalesces a `submitOrder` call so the engine always mirrors the
local draft. Removing the last command sends an empty cmd[] PUT —
the engine, repo, and rest model now accept that as a valid
"player cleared their draft" state.
`hydrateFromServer` is now invoked unconditionally on game boot so
a fresh device picks up the player's stored order, and the local
cache is overwritten by the server's view (server is the source of
truth).
Header replaces the static "race ?" + turn counter with a single
headline string `<race> @ <game>, turn <n>`, sourced from the
engine's Report.race + the lobby's GameSummary.gameName + the live
turn number, with a `?` fallback while any piece is loading.
Tests:
- engine: empty PUT round-trips, repo round-trips empty Commands
- order-draft: auto-sync sends full draft on every mutation,
rejected response surfaces error sync status, rapid mutations
coalesce, server hydration overwrites cache
- order-tab: per-row status flips through the auto-sync lifecycle,
remove → empty cmd[] PUT, rejected → retry button
- inspector overlay: applied + valid + submitting all participate
in the optimistic projection
- header: live race / game / turn rendering with fall-back
