daddy b6c6ddfbc4 Add world content persistence backend (Postgres chunks, internal API, game-server token auth)
Implements docs/architecture/world_persistence_impl.md §9's backend task:
chunk/room/revision Postgres schema (migration 0005), a Python port of the
world.md §3.6 binary chunk codec with golden-file tests, a WorldStore
service (world.md §5.1 minus flush_dirty/rebuild_index), the public
world-content router (rooms/chunks CRUD, optimistic concurrency, batch
writes) and the internal read-only API for dedicated servers, and
game_servers.py changes: a per-spawn bearer token, --api-url/--server-token
args, and a real "ready"-field wait replacing _await_port, which bound the
UDP port before content existed and failed open (no error) past its
deadline.

create_world now auto-creates the "main" room.

Deviations/findings, not silently decided:
- chunk_codec.py implements real IEEE-754 float32 packing rather than
  mirroring a confirmed bug in scripts/chunk_data_decoder.gd's
  _read_float32/_write_float32, which do a lossy int<->float cast instead
  of a bit reinterpretation (verified against Godot 4.6.2 headless) and
  will corrupt any non-integer position/rotation/scale/bounds value. Not
  fixed here (client-side, out of scope); flagged for the client task.
- world_persistence_impl.md references a world's monotonic
  content_revision (§6/§7.2/§8.1) but never defines where it's stored.
  Resolved as MAX(id) over the append-only world_chunk_revisions table,
  scoped to world_id, rather than adding an undocumented column.
- No existing Godot-side golden fixture/test vectors were found to reuse,
  so tests/fixtures/chunks/*.bin are authored fresh from this
  implementation (see generate_fixtures.py).

Verification: 132/132 backend pytest tests pass against a real ephemeral
Postgres (both reusing an already-running instance and cold via
conftest.py's own docker-compose bootstrap), including migration
upgrade/downgrade/upgrade, codec round-trip + validation-error tests, and
full HTTP round trips for PUT/GET/batch/delete/revisions/rollback and the
internal API's token auth.

"""Game-server orchestration.
On ``POST /api/worlds/{id}/join`` the backend ensures a headless Godot
dedicated-server process is running for that world and returns its address.
One process per world, keyed by ``world_id``. A background reaper kills a
world's server once its status file reports zero players for
``GAME_SERVER_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS``.
This lives in-process (a module-level singleton) rather than as a separate
service, so the backend MUST run single-worker -- which it does
(``uvicorn app.main:app`` with no ``--workers``). The Godot binary and
project are on the host (see ``settings.GODOT_BIN`` / ``GAME_PROJECT_DIR``);
the backend spawns them as subprocesses.
Design notes / limits (PC3):
- Port allocation is a linear scan of the configured range.
- No crash-restart: if a server process dies, the next join respawns it.
With world content now durable in Postgres (world_persistence_impl.md
D2), this is genuinely safe rather than merely tolerated: the sim
process holds no unsaved world content, so a reap/crash/kill can never
lose world data.
Per-spawn auth token (world_persistence_impl.md §7.3): each spawned server
gets a random ``secrets.token_urlsafe(32)`` on its command line, which it
uses as a Bearer token against ``/api/internal`` to pull its world's
content read-only before binding its ENet port. The token grants access to
exactly one world and dies with its process (the reaper's
``del self._servers[wid]`` invalidates it; see ``validate_token``).

it treated a bound UDP port as "ready", but with content loading
the port binds *before* the server has fetched its world's rooms
and chunks (world_persistence_impl.md §7.2 step 4) -- so a client
could get handed an address for a server still mid-fetch. And it
*failed open*: past its 8s deadline it simply returned, with no
error, so ``ensure_server`` reported success for a server that may
never have started at all. This raises ``TimeoutError`` instead,
which ``ensure_server`` turns into a real 503 for the joining
client, and also bails out early (same exception) if the process
has already exited.
