Closes: bf-6amz0, bf-3l7tf
The starter kits had uncommitted changes from a refactoring that broke
the Rust and TypeScript builds. This commit completes the refactoring
and fixes the build errors.
**Rust starter fixes:**
- Add `http::header` import to fix `header::HeaderName` reference
- Replace `hmac::compare_digest` (non-existent) with constant-time comparison
**TypeScript starter fixes:**
- Rename `GameState` -> `VisibleState` and `MoveResponse` -> `TurnResponse`
- Fix `strategy.ts` to use `bot.position.row` instead of `bot.row`
- Fix Move type to use `position: {row, col}` structure
**Go starter fixes:**
- Remove unused `strings` import
All 8 starter kits now build successfully with their respective toolchains.
Closes: bf-2rwz

- HMAC-SHA256 request verification and response signing
- Type-annotated compute_moves() stub (holds all bots in place)
- Grid utilities: toroidal distance, BFS, neighbor enumeration
- README with quickstart, protocol spec, and customization guide

- Add ReplayPlayer to type imports in replay-viewer.ts
- Add explicit type annotation for entry parameter in replay.ts transcript map
- Fixes TypeScript compilation errors for §15.3 screen reader transcript feature
Replace random 2-player pairing with the full §6.1 algorithm:
- Seed selection: bot with oldest last-match timestamp (tiebreak: lowest bot ID)
- Format selection: seed's least-played player count among {2, 3, 4, 6}
- Opponent selection: Pareto 80%/16-rank skill proximity + oldest last-pairing
with seed + fewest 24h games for game-count balance
- Map selection: least-recently-used active map for the chosen player count,
with map_scores.last_used_at updated after each match
- Random player slot assignment for all participant counts

Add crosspoll_state table to persist per-island generation counters
across evolver restarts. Load state on startup and save after each
cross-pollination check. Add persistence pattern and translation
structure tests.

Add forkable starter kit templates for Python, Go, JavaScript, Rust,
Java, and C# — each with HTTP server scaffold, HMAC auth, game types,
random strategy, Dockerfile, and GHCR workflow. Update /compete/docs
page with starter kit links and registration instructions.
