The design record's section array is [mission, command, engine]; the wire is
[command, mission, engine]. Hull size is an assignment inside the original's
per-section loop, and that loop runs over the array, so the last resolved
section in MEMORY order wins -- engine, else command, else mission.
The first cut of this walked the wire order, which gives a different answer for
a design with an empty engine slot and both other slots filled. Rule A3 makes
that shape invalid, so no design in the corpus can tell the two apart and the
480/480 census result is unchanged either way -- which is exactly why the order
is now a named constant with the reasoning attached instead of whichever loop
was already to hand.
derive_stats takes hull_size after its loop for the same reason; the
defence-platform flag is an OR and stays in the loop.
52 design unit tests (the mixed-class case now pins memory order and adds an
engine-slot case), census still 480/480 on 11 saves, realdata still 127/127 and
197/197. host ctest 43/43, clean-room OK.
