When an online game loses the connection the game screen now says so and freezes
instead of silently greying out: a "connection lost" banner appears and the rack,
the move controls, the add-friend/block controls and the chat/dictionary entry all
disable (a started move stays a draft, committed by the player on reconnect). It is
driven off the net-state machine (netState.offline), so it also covers the
Telegram/VK mini-apps, where a lost connection was previously mute in-game.

If the player is already in the dictionary when the drop happens, the word check
falls back to the game's pinned on-device dictionary (exact when that dawg is
cached; "unavailable offline" otherwise) and the network-only complaint + external
look-up hide. Chat, when already open, keeps its existing read-only degrade
(send/nudge disable). New pure helper localWordCheck is unit-tested; the in-game
gating gets an e2e.

**Losing the connection while inside an online game** is surfaced on **every platform, including the
Telegram/VK mini-apps** — unlike the offline-play mode above, which is web/native only — because an
online game needs the server for every move. A slim *connection lost* banner appears at the top of the
board and the play area **freezes**: the rack, the move controls, the add-friend/block controls and the
chat/dictionary entry all disable, while a move you had started stays on the board as a draft. Nothing
is sent; when the connection returns the banner clears, the controls come back and you commit the move
yourself. If you were already in the chat or the dictionary when the drop happened you stay there — chat
becomes read-only (send and nudge disable) and the dictionary keeps checking words against the game's
on-device dictionary.
