test(core): add missing check_auto_complete coverage

Three test cases were missing:
- waste_not_empty guard: stock clear, waste has a card, all tableau
  face-up — must return false even with all tableau conditions satisfied
- true case: positive path confirming all-face-up + empty stock/waste
  returns true (previously untested entirely)
- The previous face_down_cards test covered only that guard, not the
  waste guard or the positive path.

+# Solitaire Quest — Self-Hosting Guide
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Docker and Docker Compose
+- `openssl` for generating a JWT secret
+
+## Quick start
+
+1. Clone the repo and enter it.
+2. Copy the example environment file and fill in your values:
+   ```bash
+   cp .env.example .env
+   # Edit .env: set JWT_SECRET and SOLITAIRE_DOMAIN
+   ```
+3. (First time only) Generate the sqlx query cache so the server builds without a live database:
+   ```bash
+   cargo install sqlx-cli --no-default-features --features rustls,sqlite
+   export DATABASE_URL=sqlite://solitaire.db
+   sqlx database create
+   sqlx migrate run --source solitaire_server/migrations
+   cargo sqlx prepare --workspace
+   rm solitaire.db   # the real DB lives in ./data/ at runtime
+   ```
+4. Start everything:
+   ```bash
+   docker compose up -d
+   ```
+5. The server is now reachable at `https://<SOLITAIRE_DOMAIN>`.
+
+## Backups
+
+The entire server state is one SQLite file at `./data/solitaire.db`. Back it up with:
+```bash
+sqlite3 ./data/solitaire.db ".backup backup_$(date +%Y%m%d).db"
+```
+
+## Updating
+
+```bash
+git pull
+docker compose build
+docker compose up -d
+```

+//! Backend-agnostic sync plugin for Solitaire Quest.
+//!
+//! On startup, the plugin spawns an async pull task on [`AsyncComputeTaskPool`]
+//! that fetches the remote payload from the active [`SyncProvider`]. Once the
+//! task resolves, the merged result is written to disk and the in-world
+//! resources are updated. On app exit, a blocking push sends the current local
+//! state to the backend.
+//!
+//! The plugin is completely backend-agnostic: the caller (usually
+//! `solitaire_app`) constructs the right [`SyncProvider`] implementation and
+//! passes it to [`SyncPlugin::new`]. No `match` on a backend enum variant ever
+//! occurs inside this module.

+/// The merge strategy is additive and conflict-free for most fields:

+/// - Best records: take the minimum for times, maximum for scores/xp
+/// - Achievements: union by id, preserving the earliest `unlock_date`
+/// - Cosmetic unlocks: union of both vectors
+/// - Level: recomputed from merged `total_xp`

+/// the merged payload. Data is never silently discarded.
