feat(D.2b): vitals numbers as UiText (widget-generalization Task 8)

The vitals cur/max numbers now render through the generic UiText widget — retail
gmVitalsUI uses UIElement_Text for them, not a meter-internal label. VitalsController
attaches a centered, non-interactive UiText child to each meter and stops the meter
drawing its own label (UiMeter.Label -> null). New UiText.Centered draws the first line
centered H+V with the SAME formula UiMeter's overlay used, so the numbers are
pixel-identical — user-confirmed in the live client.

This completes the D.2b widget-generalization pass: every chat + vitals widget is now
built generically and registered to its retail Type (Button/Field*/Menu/Meter/Scrollbar/
Text), with thin find-by-id controllers. (*Field is controller-placed; Type 3 stays
UiDatElement for chrome.)

 | AP-34 | Landscape-stage alpha deferral is a TWO-PHASE slice split (statics-early / dynamics+particles+weather-late around the **#124** look-ins) + outdoor-root attached scene emitters moved to the post-frame pass, not retail's single deferred alpha flush. Residual: building exteriors' / outside-stage dynamics' own translucent MESH batches still draw within their stage draw call (before later stage content) | `src/AcDream.App/Rendering/RetailPViewRenderer.cs` (`DrawLandscapeThroughOutsideView` late loop) + `GameWindow` post-frame Scene pass | The MDI dispatcher draws translucency inside each Draw call; a faithful FlushAlphaList port needs a global deferred alpha list across all landscape draws — the split covers the user-visible cases (#131 portal swirl, #132 candle flame indoors + outdoors) | Translucent landscape content drawn early and screen-overlapped by content drawn later in the stage gets overpainted (no depth self-protection) — the portal-swirl/candle-flame class re-appears in the residual configurations | `D3DPolyRender::FlushAlphaList` (DrawCells pc:432722) |
 | AP-36 | Dungeon streaming gate triggers on the player's CURRENT cell being a sealed EnvCell (`CurrCell.IsEnv && !SeenOutside`), an approximation of ACE's full landblock `IsDungeon` (all-heights-zero + NumCells>0 + Buildings.Count==0). The retail BEHAVIOR (a dungeon loads no adjacent landblocks) is faithful — only the runtime TRIGGER is the cheap cell predicate instead of classifying the center landblock. **#135 pre-collapse:** at login/teleport the same collapse is triggered EARLY (the instant the streaming center is recentered onto the spawn/dest cell) via `IsSealedDungeonCell` reading the EnvCell **dat** `SeenOutside` flag — because the physics `CurrCell` is null until placement, which waits for hydration; without the early trigger the full 25×25 ocean-grid window loads then unloads (the ~30 s login FPS ramp) | `src/AcDream.App/Rendering/GameWindow.cs:6895` (per-frame predicate) + `:IsSealedDungeonCell` + `:OnLiveEntitySpawnedLocked`/`:OnLivePositionUpdated` (login/teleport pre-collapse hooks) + `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/StreamingController.cs` (collapse/expand/`PreCollapseToDungeon`) | The predicate is already computed for sun/sky gating (playerInsideCell) and exactly matches for sealed dungeons vs windowed building interiors (SeenOutside=true → not gated); no landblock re-classification needed. The dat-flag read is the same `EnvCellFlags.SeenOutside` the hydrated `ObjCell.SeenOutside` is built from (`EnvCell.cs:72`/`PhysicsDataCache.cs:224`), so the pre-collapse decision matches the eventual per-frame gate exactly | A dungeon cell that reports SeenOutside (an entrance cell open to the surface) briefly un-collapses and re-streams the window; a hypothetical windowless building back-room (IsEnv && !SeenOutside but HasBuildings) would wrongly collapse its outdoor neighbors; a sealed-dungeon entrance cell that is itself SeenOutside is simply MISSED by the early trigger and falls back to the existing late collapse (no worse than before #135) | ACE `LandblockManager.GetAdjacentIDs` (dungeons→empty) Landblock.cs:577-582; `IsDungeon` Landblock.cs:1264-1277 |

Half-Lambert wrap + factor are an x87-decompile refinement (same artifact class as GetPowerBarLevel AP-24) | Surfaces facing slightly away from a torch (`−0.5 ≤ N·L < 0`) stay dark where retail's wrap lights them faintly; near-light gradient shading differs subtly from retail's per-vertex bake | `calc_point_light` 0x0059c8b0 (line 0x0059c9a2 ramp; 0x0059c925 wrap); static_light_factor 0x00820e24 |
-| AP-37 | LayoutDesc importer collapses the dat's nested meter structure (Type-7 meter → two Type-3 container children → three Type-3 image-slice grandchildren each) into `UiMeter`'s programmatic 3-slice fields (`BackLeft..FrontRight`) + reuses `UiMeter.DrawHBar`'s scissor-fill, instead of building those child nodes generically and porting `UIElement_Meter::DrawChildren`.
