tools/realign_sheet.py strips the blank spacer rows from a documented
Animals/Monsters sheet, drops the dark-box preview copies and moves the
light frames into the manifest's slot columns, so a sheet pastes into the
template as one block. Both sheets are pasted; the manifest gains the
fifth foal/horse pair the Animals sheet actually has.

The sheet becomes a fixed grid (one row per entity, one column slot per
animation state) described by a sidecar entities.toml that only maps
names to rows; the loader reads present states and frame counts off the
pixels, so assembling the sheet by hand needs no bookkeeping.
tools/mktemplate.py renders the labelled template with low-alpha slot
guides. The CGA atlas is kept for larger UI text.

NPC strategy is now a Brain field on the entity (Idle, Wander, Hunt(Prey))
that Sim::think matches on, so behavior is data independent of species.
Hunt follows the first step of an A* route to the nearest prey in sight,
replanned every window; the pathfinder moves from game/ to sim/ for that.
A greedy step-toward-target was tried first and oscillated at walls. Bumps
between the same species no longer fight, and six foxes join the hens.

Occupied tiles now block movement through World::blocked, the one predicate
the sim and the pathfinder share. Entities carry an EntityKind so the sim
knows which ones to think for; Sim::think gives each NPC a random king move
one window in four. Intents execute in id order so contested tiles resolve
deterministically.

pbio moves to git.bnd.wtf/irrlicht/pbio.git branch truecolor16: the
framebuffer is now RGB565 u16, no palette. Assets are loaded from PNG via
the png crate and quantized to RGB565 on load; transparency comes from the
alpha channel as a per-tile opacity mask, so any color (black included) can
be opaque. The TGA loader and the palette-order fragility are gone.
overworld.png is the unmodified Mini-Medieval Overworld sheet (same 24-column
layout as the old TGA, so map tile ids are unchanged); entities.png holds the
player sprite extracted from the old entities.tga.
Adds an ignored snapshot test that renders the first frame headlessly to a
PNG for eyeballing the renderer without a window.
