feat(ui): Erudit blank tiles carry the star (✻) mark

The Erudit variant's blank is the "звёздочка", so render it with a star.
An empty rack blank (and its drag ghost) shows ✻ centred; a placed blank
keeps its designated letter and carries ✻ where the (absent) point value
sits — on the board and in the Stats best-move tiles. The Scrabble variants
are unchanged. Gated by usesStarBlank() in lib/variants.ts.
