fix(combat): resolve power spans after layout

Browse source 
Derive the dark middle range from live post-anchor sibling geometry instead of freezing the inherited 800-pixel prototype during controller binding. Render the user-directed bright desired-power band independently from the absolute bar-left edge to the green thumb center.

Power uses right justification.
The combat subtree inherits from an 800-pixel prototype and reflows into its
610-pixel mounted root on the first layout traversal. Therefore the controller
must not snapshot sibling positions during `Bind`: before reflow the bar is
`x=8,w=707` and Power is `x=611`; after retail anchoring they are `x=8,w=507`
and `x=411`. `ScalarRangeProvider` reads the live sibling rectangles during
drawing, producing the centered local interval `x=104,w=299`. Freezing the
pre-reflow width clamps that range to the bar's right edge and visibly shifts
the dark texture toward Power.
