Adds a single "Name color" toggle (Colored / Black) to the Graphics
Settings modal, backed by a `darkNames` boolean in the override schema
that derives the five underlying name-rendering fields
(fill/outline player-color flags + static outline RGB). Forcing the
outline RGB to 0 in dark mode is what makes the shader's defaultFill
ramp actually render black — flipping the boolean uniforms alone
wasn't enough because the fill is derived from uOutlineColor when
fillUsePlayerColor is false.
Flips the render-settings.json defaults so black names are the
renderer baseline; the modal's no-override state follows the JSON
source of truth. Adds tests covering schema parse behavior and the
generateRenderSettings derivation for each override field.
## Description:
- Add a user-facing **Graphics Settings** modal accessible from the
in-game Settings menu, with live preview as sliders change.
- First two knobs: **Name Scale** and **Minimum Name Size** (the
name-cull threshold).
- Overrides stored as a single JSON blob in `localStorage` under
`settings.graphics`, validated by a Zod schema
(`GraphicsOverridesSchema`). Future graphics knobs just extend the
schema + slider list.
## How it fits together
- `generateRenderSettings(overrides)` (`RenderSettings.ts`) — pure
function: clones `render-settings.json` defaults, layers overrides on
top, returns a fresh `RenderSettings`.
- `UserSettings.graphicsOverrides()` / `setGraphicsOverrides()` —
read/write the blob; falls back to `{}` on a missing/corrupt entry.
- `ClientGameRunner` listens for
`USER_SETTINGS_CHANGED_EVENT:settings.graphics`, regenerates, and
`Object.assign`s each category into the live `view.getSettings()` slice
so passes pick up the new values on the next frame (no renderer
reconstruction).
- Modal reads defaults straight from `render-settings.json` so there's
no duplication.

The lil-gui render-settings panel (createDebugGui) has been an orphaned
export since the WebGL renderer landed — no caller, no hotkey, no menu
entry. Wire it to a button in SettingsModal that toggles the panel on
and off, and group it with the existing Performance Overlay toggle
under a new "Development Only" section above the Exit Game block.
## Description:
Replaces the DOM-based `AttackingTroopsOverlay` with
`AttackingTroopsController`, rendering attack troop counts through
`WorldTextPass` instead of a separate fixed-position DOM container.
## Summary
- New `AttackingTroopsController` polls `attackClusteredPositions()`
every 200ms and pushes labels to the WebGL view each frame, lerping
cluster positions over 250ms for smooth front-line movement (replaces
the old CSS `transform 0.25s` transition).
- `WorldTextPass` gains `setAttackTroopLabels()` and renders them at a
fixed on-screen size (zoom-independent) using `screenScale / zoom`.
- World text now draws on top of `NamePass` so attack callouts aren't
hidden behind centered player names.
- Fragment shader adds a soft quadratic dark halo around every
world-text label; extent uses the remaining SDF range after the hard
outline so it fades smoothly to zero (no rectangular clipping).
- Deletes `AttackingTroopsOverlay.ts`; existing unit tests repointed to
the controller's exported `alignClusterOrder`.

Resolves#3910
## Description:
- Split the events HUD into two components: a new
**`<actionable-events>`** that owns alliance prompts (request / renew)
and a slimmed-down **`<events-display>`** for everything else.
- Reworked `<events-display>` into two visual tiers: dim/scrolling tier
2 on top (trade results, unit losses, donations, alliance status),
prominent tier 1 anchored at the bottom (inbound nukes, naval invasion,
attack requests, alliance broken, conquered player, chat). Tier 2 caps
at the 4 newest entries; events expire after 8s.
- Added a transient **+gold pip** above the gold pill in
`<control-panel>`, animated with a small fade-in. Fires for trade ships,
trains, donations, and conquest. Trade-ship and train arrivals are
removed from the events scroll since they're surfaced here instead.
- New `MessageType.NUKE_DETONATED` and a server-side emission in
`NukeExecution.detonate` — once an inbound nuke lands or gets
intercepted, the inbound warning vanishes and a "detonated" entry takes
its place.
- `displayMessage` gained optional `unitID` and `focusPlayerID` params
so events can link to a unit or a player. Unit captures and destructions
now navigate to the unit's last tile when clicked; donations navigate to
the other player.
- ActionableEvents card width matches `<events-display>`; cards persist
until the user clicks Accept/Reject/Renew/Ignore or the server-side
request timeout expires.
- Removed the in-events category filter UI and the gold-amount banner —
`<events-display>` is now a lightweight log that hides entirely when
empty.

The contents (Lit web components for in-game chat, build menu, leaderboard,
attack displays, etc.) are HUD, not graphics — the actual graphics is in
client/render/.
