Added tests for:
- TestNextScheduledTime: verifies correct calculation of next scheduled
run time across various scenarios (same-day future, same-day past,
different weekdays, edge cases around midnight)
- TestWeeklyScheduleEnvParsing: validates environment variable parsing
for the WEEKDAY:HH:MM format, including valid and invalid inputs
These tests ensure the weekly automated map evolution ticker (§14.6)
correctly schedules evolution runs at the configured time.

- Implement runWeeklyLoop() function that waits for scheduled time and
runs evolution for all player counts (2, 3, 4, 6) weekly
- Add --weekly flag to enable weekly mode (default: Sunday 03:00 UTC)
- Add --weekly-schedule flag for custom schedule (WEEKDAY:HH:MM format)
- Add ACB_WEEKLY_SCHEDULE env var for configuration
feat(acb-evolver): add weekly map evolution ticker
- Add MapEvolutionEnabled and MapEvolutionSchedule to RunConfig
- Add --enable-map-evolution flag to acb-evolver run subcommand
- Add startMapEvolutionTicker() goroutine that runs weekly
- Ticker executes acb-map-evolver --once to trigger map breeding
- Configurable via ACB_MAP_EVOLUTION_ENABLED and ACB_MAP_EVOLUTION_SCHEDULE
This integrates map evolution into the bot evolver's deployment,
allowing weekly automated map evolution based on engagement scores
as specified in plan §14.6.

The --once mode was implemented but the command-line flag was not being
parsed. This commit adds the flag parsing and help text for --once, which
enables the weekly automated map evolution run from the evolver.
The evolver's weekly ticker (run.go) calls acb-map-evolver --once to
trigger map evolution on Sundays at 03:00 UTC as specified in plan §14.6.
Energy node placement now uses a tiered radius distribution: 30% in the
contested central zone (0.05-0.20 from center), 40% in the mid-zone
(0.20-0.40), and 30% in the home zone (0.40-0.60). Previously nodes were
placed uniformly at 0.20-0.70, letting bots farm their home quadrant
indefinitely without crossing the midline.
After cellular automata wall generation, a 3-wide corridor is carved from
each core straight to the map center, plus a 5x5 open arena at the center
tile. This creates lanes that funnel bots into contact — replicating the key
mechanic that drove frequent fights in the original AI Challenge Ants game,
where symmetric food spawning near the midfield forced both colonies to
expand outward and collide.

- Add seedIfEmpty: idempotent startup seeding (20 maps per player count,
ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING) using cellular-automata generation + validate()
- Add continuous evolution loop across all player counts (2/3/4/6)
- ACB_MIN_SEED_COUNT and ACB_EVOLUTION_PERIOD configurable via env vars
- Add Dockerfile (lean Alpine build, no language runtimes)
- Add acb-map-evolver to acb-build.yml CI pipeline
- Add staging K8s Deployment manifest
