fix #129: cap the punch mark bias's eye-space reach (was unbounded at distance)

The user's "doors/doorways leak through terrain and houses over a
landblock" is the #117 mark-pass bias evaluated in the wrong space.

Mechanism (confirmed analytically, Issue129PunchBiasTests): the punch's
pass-A stencil mark biased the aperture fan toward the viewer by a
CONSTANT 0.0005 NDC. NDC depth is non-linear - a constant NDC bias b
spans ~= b*d^2*(f-n)/(f*n) meters of eye depth at eye distance d. With
retail's znear 0.1 (d4b5c71) that is 0.125 m at 5 m but ~190 m at one
landblock: every hill/house in front of a distant aperture passed the
LEQUAL mark and was far-Z punched -> door-shaped leak through the
occluder. This is exactly the risk AD-18's register row recorded
("an occluder within ~bias in front of a distant aperture gets punched
through") - the symptom-scan rule found it before instrumentation.

Fix: cap the bias's EYE-SPACE span at 0.5 m -
  biasNdc(d) = min(0.0005, capMeters * near / d^2)
in the mark-pass vertex shader (clipPos.w = eye depth), CPU-mirrored as
PortalDepthMaskRenderer.MarkBiasNdc for tests. Below the ~10 m
crossover the constant-NDC term is smaller and wins - bit-identical to
the T5-validated close-range behavior, so the #108 grass coverage that
justified the bias is untouched. Beyond it the punch can never reach an
occluder more than 0.5 m in front of the aperture plane.

Pins (Issue129PunchBiasTests): the old form spans >100 m of eye depth
at a landblock (the leak, kept as documentation of the refuted shape);
the capped form stays <= 0.5 m at every distance 1-400 m and matches
the validated constant bit-for-bit below 10 m.

AD-18 register row updated in the same commit (bias description + the
#129 closure + the residual risk note: door-hugging geometry beyond the
0.5 m cap at >10 m viewing range re-occludes - the cap constant is the
tuning knob if the gate shows residue).

Suites: App 256+1skip / Core 1439+2skip / UI 420 / Net 294 green.
Awaiting the user visual gate at the original spot (+ #108 cellar
re-check up close).
