Render each vital bar as a horizontal 3-slice from the real retail
RenderSurface sprites (authoritative ids from the vitals LayoutDesc
0x21000014 via dump-vitals-bars): a fixed-width bevelled left-cap, a
stretched glassy-gradient middle, and a fixed-width right-cap. The
empty back track draws full width; the coloured front fill grows from
the left to the value (the track owns the right end, so the fill omits
its own right-cap). Replaces the flat single-sprite Alphablend overlay
that read as the old UI - this is the bordered gradient look from the
retail screenshot (red HP / gold stamina / blue mana).
UiMeter gains the six 9-slice ids (BackLeft/Tile/Right +
FrontLeft/Tile/Right) and a DrawHBar helper; MarkupDocument parses the
backleft/backtile/backright/frontleft/fronttile/frontright attrs;
vitals.xml carries the 18 per-vital ids. The temporary
ACDREAM_BAR_PROVEOUT component grid is removed.
Adds AcDream.Cli render-vitals-mockup: a headless ImageSharp composite
that assembles the bars with the SAME DrawHBar logic, so the sprite
assembly can be verified by eye (Read the PNG) without launching the
client + server - the fast UI-iteration loop the user asked for.
export-ui-sprite dumps a single RenderSurface to PNG for HTML mockups.

UiMeter gains SpriteResolve/BackSpriteId/FrontSpriteId; when both are
set, OnDraw draws the empty-track sprite full-width then the colored-fill
sprite UV-cropped to the live fill fraction (left-to-right drain). Falls
back to solid rects when sprite ids are absent, keeping existing behavior
and tests intact.
MarkupDocument.Build() parses `back`/`front` hex attrs on <meter> and
passes `resolve` into every UiMeter. vitals.xml wires the authoritative
LayoutDesc 0x21000014 sprites (Health 0x06005F3C/3D, Stamina 3E/3F,
Mana 40/41). The bar prove-out block in GameWindow.cs was already gone.
If the sprites decode as 1x1 magenta at runtime they are paletted
(INDEX16/P8) — the solid-color fallback will display instead and can be
investigated separately.

Add AnchorEdges [Flags] enum and Anchors property (default Left|Top, so
all existing elements are unchanged) to UiElement. ApplyAnchor() captures
the design-time margins on first call then recomputes Left/Top/Width/Height
each frame; DrawSelfAndChildren drives it for every child before painting.
ComputeAnchoredRect is public + static so it can be unit-tested without a
running frame loop.
MarkupDocument.Build gains a private Anchor() CSV parser and threads it
into the <meter> initializer via the anchor= attribute.
vitals.xml: remove title="Vitals" (retail vitals has no heading) and add
anchor="left,top,right" to all three meter bars so they stretch when the
panel is dragged wider.
Two new xUnit tests in UiRootInputTests: Left+Right stretches width;
Left+Top only keeps fixed size. All 19 App.Tests green.

Add ResizeX/ResizeY bool properties to UiElement (both true by default).
HitEdges() in UiRoot masks out locked axes after edge detection, so a
locked edge falls through to window-move behaviour — matching retail,
where the vitals bar height is fixed and only widens.
MarkupDocument.Build() parses an optional resize="x|y|both|none"
attribute on <panel>; vitals.xml gets resize="x" to enforce the
horizontal-only constraint in all instances of the panel.
Two new tests: HitEdges_RespectsResizeAxisLock (UiRootInputTests) and
Build_ResizeAttrX_SetsHorizontalOnly (MarkupDocumentTests). 11/11 green.

Implements Task 8 of the D.2b retail-UI plan. MarkupDocument.Build() parses
KSML-style panel markup into a live UiNineSlicePanel subtree, resolving
{Binding} attribute expressions against a supplied object via reflection.
Color format is #AARRGGBB (alpha-first, matching controls.ini). Handles
<panel> root (geometry + optional title label) and <meter> children (fill,
label, bar color). Future element kinds (label, button, image) extend the
switch without touching existing code.
vitals.xml encodes the just-approved vitals panel layout (health red #FFC70D0D,
stamina gold #FFD49E1F, mana blue #FF1F33D9); ships next to the binary via
PreserveNewest csproj rule. GameWindow.cs drops the 35-line hand-built panel
block in favour of a 4-line File.ReadAllText + MarkupDocument.Build call —
identical tree, identical render, now data-driven.
2 new tests (Build_CreatesPanelWithMeterFillLabelAndGeometry,
Build_NullBindingValuesYieldNullFillAndLabel) + 11 total targeted green.
