feat(thressgame-coverage): Wave 11 (4 critical integration fixes)

Closes critical gaps surfaced by oracle gap audit:

- T70 (C1): server WS submit-choice handler now calls submitChoiceAndResume(engine, choiceId, value); both submit and timeout-default paths thread the value through the resume helper. Game state delta broadcast after resume.

- T71 (C3): fireOnRuleExpireHooks dispatcher implemented (mirrors fireOnRuleActivatedHooks pattern); engine.detachCustomDescriptor(descriptorId) method; WS custom-modifier.remove action with full integration; on-rule-expire hooks now actually fire on detach (was a public stub).

- T72 (C4): real cancel-capture via snapshot+restore. applyMove now snapshots defender's facts as LastCaptureSnapshot on GAME_ENTITY before retract; integration preset checks CaptureCancelled flag after fireOnCapturedHooks; if true, re-inserts defender facts and reverts mover's Position. Parry rule now actually undoes a capture in real play.

- T73: client-side request-choice plumbing. GameClient.dispatchServerMessage routes request-choice WS frames to a new GameClientEvent; sendSubmitChoice convenience method; useMultiplayerGame hook exposes pendingChoice + submitChoice; GameView renders RequestChoiceModal when pendingChoice is set.

Tests: 2744 -> 2774 (+30). bun run check exit 0.

+/**
+ * T72 — REAL-pipeline parry test (capture undo via snapshot+restore).
+ *
+ * The sibling `parry.test.ts` exercises the parry descriptor in
+ * ISOLATION: it bypasses `engine.applyMove` and drives
+ * `fireOnCapturedHooks` directly. That test pins the descriptor's
+ * shape + the request-choice / cancel-capture wire-in but does NOT
+ * cover the realistic capture pipeline (engine.applyMove → dealDamage
+ * → defender retraction → on-captured trigger → resume → cancel-
+ * capture → restore).
+ *
+ * THIS test is the critical real-pipeline check for T72:
+ *
+ *   1. White pawn (e2-e4-e4xd5) captures black pawn at d5 via
+ *      `engine.applyMove`. The full pipeline runs: PRE_MOVE_*
+ *      snapshots, dealDamage retracts the defender, attacker
+ *      advances, onAfterMove stage 4 fires `fireOnCapturedHooks` —
+ *      and our seeded `OnCapturedHooks` runs the parry descriptor's
+ *      inner arm.
+ *
+ *   2. The arm pushes a request-choice (rps), suspends. Stage 4b
+ *      detects the suspend (the pending-choice depth grew during the
+ *      fire), so it does NOT clear the LastCaptureSnapshot. Without
+ *      this guard the snapshot would be gone before resume could
+ *      consume it.
+ *
+ *   3. AutoChoiceResolver returns "rock" for the rps choice (defender
+ *      throw); the local `rpsBeats` rule decides the defender wins
+ *      against the simulated attacker throw "scissors". The resume
+ *      helper threads the original capture event payload through
+ *      `runPrimitives` so `cancel-capture`'s
+ *      `ctx.event.kind === "capture"` guard is satisfied.
+ *
+ *   4. `cancel-capture.apply()` re-inserts every defender fact from
+ *      `LastCaptureSnapshot.defenderFacts` (PieceType, Color,
+ *      Position, …) and sets `CaptureCancelled = true`.
+ *
+ *   5. The resume helper then mirrors stage 4b's post-fire cleanup:
+ *      polls `CaptureCancelled`, calls
+ *      `rollbackAttackerFromSnapshot` (restoring the white pawn's
+ *      pre-move Position + HasMoved), retracts the flag, and
+ *      retracts the snapshot. After this the engine state is
+ *      indistinguishable from "the white pawn never moved to d5"
+ *      — which is the parry contract.
+ *
+ * ## Asserts pinned
+ *
+ *  - Black pawn is BACK at d5 with PieceType=pawn, Color=black, and
+ *    its other pre-capture facts intact.
+ *  - White pawn is NOT at d5; its Position is restored to e4 (the
+ *    pre-capture origin) and HasMoved is restored to its pre-capture
+ *    value (true, since e2-e4 already moved it).
+ *  - `CaptureCancelled` flag is cleared (no leak across the move).
+ *  - `LastCaptureSnapshot` is cleared (no leak).
+ *
+ * ## Why this test must NOT bypass `applyMove`
+ *
+ * The plan task explicitly forbids the existing-test shortcut. The
+ * snapshot+restore wiring spans:
+ *   - engine.applyMove (writes the snapshot via
+ *     `recordLastCaptureSnapshot` before dealDamage retracts);
+ *   - apply.ts onAfterMove stage 4b (suspended-vs-completed branch);
+ *   - cancel-capture primitive (defender restoration);
+ *   - rollbackAttackerFromSnapshot helper (attacker rollback).
+ *
+ * Bypassing `applyMove` (as parry.test.ts does for its own scope)
+ * would skip the recordLastCaptureSnapshot writer and the suspended
+ * branch in stage 4b — neither path would be exercised. The only
+ * way to validate T72 end-to-end is the real pipeline.
+ *
+ * ## Resume helper local-to-this-file (also documented in parry.test.ts)
+ *
+ * T46's `submitChoiceAndResume` resumes with `event: undefined`,
+ * which would make `cancel-capture` throw
+ * `runtime.cancel-capture-no-event`. The local
+ * `resumeWithCaptureEvent` helper here threads the original capture
+ * event through to `runPrimitives` so the resumed continuation
+ * inherits the triggering arm's event payload — the same workaround
+ * the sibling parry.test.ts uses.
