THE TOURNAMENT, the pace-lit trail, and brighter opponents

The fourth mode: four rounds up the dead hierarchy (CUP_ROUNDS), each round
drawing a rung from its band, the champion always the final. It rides the
match machinery whole — cupDraw feeds the drawn rung through d.opp so every
ladder dial scales untouched; the body's pool spans the round (need-scaled
pool and divisor, so wounds carry between games); cupGameWon holds the same
body mid-round, kills it on the round, and past the final cupWon banks a
NOT-dead match run under CHAMPION OF THE DEAD CLUB. Blood carries; round one
is a single game; deathmatch stays as the arcade run. Full-run state test.

Sidequests: the ghost trail is pace-qualified (TUNE.trailSpeed) so both
tennis modes streak — pow>0.8 was only ever reached by the gore slingshot;
opponent sprites draw ~18% brighter via a load-time baked copy
(render.brighten, TUNE.oppBright) with no PNG touched; the cup scoreboard
line names the round instead of lying with deathmatch arithmetic; the rack
and the apron demo no longer draw under a trophy screen.
