docs(issues): #37 humanoid coat doesn't extend up to neck (env-var diagnostics committed)

Filed as #37 after a ~3 hr investigation that ruled out animation source,
backface culling/winding, palette overlay, and head-GfxObj polygons.

Confirmed:
- Stub is from part 9 (upper torso/coat) post-AnimPartChange (gfx 0x0100120D)
- Part 9's both surfaces ARE matched by our 2 TextureChanges
- Server data complete; composition formula matches ACME + retail decomp

Untested hypothesis space (next session):
- Texture decode chain (compare our SurfaceDecoder vs ACME TextureHelpers)
- Polygon-to-surface index off-by-one on part 9
- Multi-layer texture composition AC may do
- UV mapping bug

Diagnostic env vars committed to source for next-session reuse:
- ACDREAM_HIDE_PART=N — hide specific humanoid part to localize bugs
- ACDREAM_NO_CULL=1 — disable backface culling
- ACDREAM_DUMP_CLOTHING=1 — dump APC + TC + per-part Surface chain coverage

Bug was originally reported as "head/neck protrudes forward"; the apparent
forward shift turned out to be an optical illusion from the missing
coat collar. Math + cdb-ground-truth + ACME comparison confirmed the
head placement is correct retail-faithful — see #37 for the long write-up.
