James Dansereau 2f002a31aa D252: document the rainbow particle-palette bug (no fix for v0.2.0-pre)
User playtest report: bullet-impact sparks and lingering smoke/explosion
residue drift through the full hue wheel over time instead of holding their
intended grey/orange palette. Logged in findings §F (D252) with this
session's mechanism work: particle colour comes entirely from the 15
distinct IMAGE_SMOKE_N x IMAGE_FIRE_N (RGBA16) pairs the particles age
through (assets/oddtextures.c records, white default vertex); the M-82/D172
tile-offset fix and the 5551 decode are both verified correct for this path;
prime suspect is import_texture_rgba16 deriving width/height from the tile
line size (32x7 instead of 16x14 for the 16px-wide fire tiles), which would
scramble each aging stage into a different wrong hue -- exactly the observed
slow rainbow sweep. Per user instruction: documented only, ships as a known
issue (README + release notes + GRAPHICS-BACKLOG); index csv regenerated.
