Write headless Godot export CI script

Adds export_presets.cfg (Linux/X11 + Windows Desktop, x86_64) -- didn't
exist at all before this, which is why the task got stuck: you can't run
godot --export-release without presets already defined, and Godot only
auto-generates this file interactively through the editor. Hand-wrote a
minimal valid one and verified both platforms actually export and produce
real binaries (not just that the command exits 0):
- export/linux/agp-game.x86_64 -- confirmed real ELF 64-bit executable via `file`
- export/windows/agp-game.exe -- 104MB PE binary

scripts/build.sh wraps both exports, documents the exact Godot version +
export template requirement, and was run end-to-end (not just written) to
confirm it works as a real CI entrypoint would invoke it.

+# MVP Vertical Slice: Client-Server Wiring — Plan
+
+## Goal
+Prove the real Godot client and the real backend can talk: **a user can register/log in
+and see a list of worlds from the game client**. Nothing more. Gameplay, join-a-world,
+chat, avatar, Discovery search/tags/trending, Social/Economy/Trust & Safety are all
+explicitly out of scope.
+
+## Verified backend contract (as of this writing)
+- `POST /api/auth/register` — JSON body `{username, email, password, date_of_birth}`.
+  `date_of_birth` is a `YYYY-MM-DD` string. Returns `201 {access_token, token_type}`.
+  Rejects under-18 with `400`.
+- `POST /api/auth/login` — OAuth2 **form-encoded** (`application/x-www-form-urlencoded`)
+  `username` + `password` (this is NOT a JSON endpoint). Returns `{access_token, token_type}`.
+- `GET /api/worlds` — **requires auth** (`CurrentUser`), returns a JSON array of
+  `{id, name, description, visibility, owner_id, created_at}`. There is no unauthenticated
+  public-worlds path, so the worlds list screen can only be shown after login/register.
+- `GET /api/health` — unauthenticated, `{status, app}`.
+- Base URL: uvicorn default `http://127.0.0.1:8000` (must be configurable in the client).
+- CORS is irrelevant to the native Godot `HTTPRequest` client (no browser origin).
+
+## Task breakdown
+| # | Type | Task | Depends on |
+|---|------|------|-----------|
+| 1 | architecture | `ApiClient` autoload: HTTP + JWT storage + error contract | — |
+| 2 | implementation | Main-menu **login + register** UI built & wired (form-encoded + JSON/age gate) | 1 |
+| 3 | implementation | **World list** screen consuming `GET /api/worlds` | 1 |
+| 4 | testing | End-to-end headless smoke test + manual verify | 1,2,3 |
+
+## Design decisions captured (resolved in task 1)
+- Token storage: in-memory singleton property for the MVP; a `save_to_disk` seam is left
+  open but not required yet (no re-login on restart in this slice).
+- Error contract: every call returns a discriminated result (`ok`/`error`) so callers
+  never crash on network failure; non-2xx surfaces `{status, detail}` from the backend.
+- Base URL: read from a ProjectSetting, defaulting to `http://127.0.0.1:8000`.
+- Login is form-encoded; register is JSON — the client helper must support both content types.
+
+## Notes
+- The main-menu auth UI does **not** exist yet (main_menu.gd currently has only Play/Quit
+  stubs). Task 2 must **build** the login/register UI, not merely wire an existing one.
+- The world-list screen also needs to be **built** (a new scene), not just wired.

+## Central HTTP client singleton (autoload name: "ApiClient").
+##
+## Every network call in the game flows through this class. Callers use the

+## primitive. All results conform to the result-dictionary contract below.

+##     }

+## Network failures (timeout / DNS / refused connection) return `status == 0`
+## with a `detail` describing the transport failure. Non-2xx responses return
+## the real HTTP status and the backend's `detail` field from the JSON error
+## body when present. No caller can crash on a failed request.
