alex a4a1d373f1 RB: replay a recorded turn's commands -- ModCount is reachable, and the rates frame's memory order is not its wire order 
sots_turn --turn-commands puts /Sim/ModCount on the original's 24 with zero residual, closing
the one leaf that has been unreachable from a save all campaign. Canonical pair 108 -> 62,
closed 46, regressed 0, fresh build directory.

The .tcb capture format (line-oriented, parser-free, '?' for a field the instrument could not
read, per-client AI seeds), a converter from lane L4's shim dump, and an adapter from lane CB's
JSON capture -- CB's stays the capture of record, .tcb stays the engine's input, and the two
paths produce byte-identical replays.

A falsified prediction paid for itself: the first run regressed two leaves because list 5's
element is decoded in MEMORY order, and the memory order of the rates frame is NOT its wire
order. Memory member 1 is wire member SRsc; six members unread. Lane CB's decoder has the same
defect and should drop its list-5 record.

Two new addresses (the second and third gate-loop heads) in ghidra/addresses.d/lane-rb.json.
