Combat: SRD multiattack profiles + monster abilities in turn engine

Elites/bosses in turn-based fights now swing a full SRD multiattack
profile and fire their special ability — abilities never fired in the
turn-based path before, and every enemy made a single attack.

bestiary_srd.go adds SRDAttack/SRDProfile and a hand-authored registry
for the named bosses and multiattack elites; auto-resolve keeps its
tuned single-Attack blocks untouched. turnAbilityFires remaps the
auto-resolve phase clock onto fight progress for the phase-less duel.

+// SRD-shaped stat blocks for the turn-based elite/boss engine.
+//
+// The auto-resolve path (SimulateCombat) keeps the simplified one-attack
+// DnDMonsterTemplate shape — its Attack value is a gameplay-tuned average that
+// bakes a creature's whole action into a single number, and the 2026-05-10
+// rebalance is calibrated against it. Do NOT feed these profiles into
+// auto-resolve.
+//
+// The turn-based path can afford canonical SRD multiattack: the player issues a
+// command per round, so a creature making three attack rolls a turn is a
+// tactical problem the player can answer (heal, control, flee) rather than an
+// un-survivable spike. Each SRDAttack carries its own to-hit and average
+// damage, derived from the creature's SRD attack profile — not the tuned
+// auto-resolve Attack stat.
+//
+// File is intentionally NOT dnd_-prefixed (see memory: no new dnd_* identifiers).
+
+// SRDAttack is one attack roll within a creature's multiattack action: a d20
+// to-hit and an average damage value for that single strike.
+type SRDAttack struct {
+	Name        string // "Longsword", "Bite", "Claw" — surfaces in the round log
+	AttackBonus int    // d20 to-hit modifier; 0 falls back to the template AttackBonus
+	Damage      int    // average damage for this single attack
+}
+
