jpmschweitzerandClaude Opus 4.6 c380ef8a84 feat(assets): add Quaternius aesthetic validation spike ...

Complete character pipeline spike validating the Quaternius rig as
foundation for The Settled Reach's 3D character system.

Validated:
- 65-bone skeleton + Universal Animation Library as rig foundation
- Body segmentation into 15 bone-group regions with 1-ring vertex overlap
- Trellis-generated heads via BoneAttachment3D
- Skin tone texture generation pipeline (9 variants from source)
- Toon shader + inverted hull outline at gameplay zoom
- CharacterVisual class as compositor prototype

Failed (documented):
- Trellis clothing auto-rigging (sculptures, not garments)
- Bone scaling for body type variants (catastrophic joint deformation)
- Runtime per-segment clothing scaling (same failure as Blender-side)

Includes: Blender pipeline scripts (segmentation, auto-rigging, Surface
Deform fitting), Godot showcase with interactive controls, automated
screenshot cycle, smoke tests, team reviews, and VERDICT.md.

D-158 through D-164 locked. Q-060 through Q-062 opened.
