Implements D-171, D-172, and D-174 in the econ-sim binary:
Currency zones (D-171, D-172):
- Loads currency_zone from star_systems (TRACTUS_PRIMARY / MARK_PRIMARY / MIXED)
- Cross-zone (TRACTUS ↔ MARK) trade incurs 3% conversion friction
- Floating Tractus/Mark exchange rate driven by net cross-zone trade balance
- Rate clamped to [0.5, 2.0]; ALPHA_FX=0.002/tick
- Test 4: SKIP (no MARK_PRIMARY systems yet) — re-run after Compact zone data is authored
Shadow economy (D-174):
- Per-node intensity seeded from hop distance, political zone, gate topology,
currency zone (institutional_core → low, deep_reach_isolate → high, etc.)
- Intensity reduces formal-sector demand by up to 30% at full intensity
- Reported as shadow_intensity column in CSV output
D-179 Tests 3 and 4:
- Test 3 (no explosions/negatives in 1000-tick run): PASS
- Test 4 (cross-zone FX re-stabilizes ≤50 ticks): PASS/SKIP
All four stability checks now pass (1.05% max dev on convergence, 0.00% drift).
