shiny: tint from the body colour, and the fixes the screenshots found

Browse Source

Four things, all found by shooting the feature rather than by reading it.

The flat-pic tint was a no-op for the five colour-table species. tintFor ran
synthetic reference colours through the lookup, none of them were IN it, so
every ratio came back 1 and the tint was discarded -- a shiny Gyarados drew
an ordinary blue pic. Those species now measure the tint from the table's own
entries.

It was also a no-op for most SLIDE species, for a better-hidden reason: a hue
rotation moves red toward cyan and cyan toward red, so averaged over a
balanced set of references the ratios cancel and every species reports no
tint. Charizard and Ponyta both came back neutral. The tint is now measured
against the colour each species is actually MADE of -- a modal body colour,
generated into data/shiny_colors.lua as `dom`. 132 of 151 now carry a usable
tint; the rest genuinely shift too little for one to mean anything.

The sparkle drew sixty quads a frame that nobody could see. It was built to
numbers a tenth of the scale of a mon card -- a ring seven units across,
inside a Gyarados -- and additive drawing keeps the depth test, so all of it
was rejected. Sized against the card now, and pulled toward the camera the
way the move-animation card is.

And the summary PIC cannot be recoloured by touching pixels: the art is
four-shade DMG grey and the colour is applied afterwards by the palette pass.
That attempt is reverted, with the reason left where the next person will
look for it. The star is the designation that works there.

Also: tools/shiny_colors.py now resolves its own paths instead of hardcoding
a worktree, and the extract test gained a hard failure when NOTHING
recolours -- which is what a missing colour table looks like from the
outside, and it passed through it once already.

Evidence in .claude/shiny_update, every case beside its own control.
