54548e4873 fix(bots): remove timestamp from verify_signature signing string
All 10 non-gatherer bots included timestamp in the request verification
signing string but the engine (auth.go SignRequest) does not include
timestamp. Every incoming turn request failed 401 verification, bots
crashed after 10 turns, and all matches ended in stalemate.

The engine documentation in auth.go is also misleading (old comment
mentioned timestamp in signing string) but the actual implementation
never included it. Fixed all language implementations to match.

Affected: random (py), swarm (ts), hunter (java), guardian (php),
          rusher (rs), assassin (rs), phalanx (rs), opportunist (go),
          farmer (go), scout (py), raider (java)

6f1b50384c Complete Phase 2: HTTP protocol and 6 strategy bots
Phase 2 Implementation:
- HMAC authentication for engine-to-bot communication
  - Request signing with timestamp anti-replay
  - Response signing for integrity verification
- HTTP bot client with timeout and crash detection
  - Per-turn 3s timeout, 10 consecutive failure crash threshold
  - Move validation (position ownership, direction validity)
- Integration tests for HTTP match execution
- 6 strategy bots in 6 languages:
  - RandomBot (Python): Random valid moves - rating floor
  - GathererBot (Go): Energy-focused with combat avoidance
  - RusherBot (Rust): Aggressive core rushing via BFS
  - GuardianBot (PHP): Defensive core protection
  - SwarmBot (TypeScript): Formation-based group combat
  - HunterBot (Java): Target isolation and hunting

All bots include:
- HMAC signature verification
- Dockerfile for containerization
- README documentation

All engine tests passing (32+ tests)
