feat(core): Spider rules as a second card_game::Game implementation

Two-deck (104-card) Spider on the upstream Stack/Pile containers,
exercising the multi-deck Card encoding for the first time:

- SpiderGame: 10-pile deal (4x6 + 6x5), build-down-any-suit,
  same-suit-run pickup, deal-10 gated on no empty pile, automatic
  K->A run removal, win at 8 runs
- SpiderSuits difficulty (1/2/4 suits over the same 104 cards);
  1- and 2-suit games contain identical Card values by construction
  (documented — engine entity mapping will need positional keys)
- Seeded deals via inline SplitMix64 + Fisher-Yates (core has no
  rand dep; Spider's seed space is deliberately self-contained)
- SpiderGameState session wrapper mirroring GameState conventions:
  Result<_, MoveError> mutations, upstream undo/score bookkeeping,
  Microsoft-style scoring (500 base, -1/move, +100/run, -1/undo)
- 17 unit tests + card-conservation/validity proptest over random
  legal walks; stacked-deal win-path test included

+//! Spider solitaire rules — a second [`card_game::Game`] implementation
+//! alongside the upstream Klondike.
+//!
+//! Built directly on the upstream `card_game` containers: two decks
+//! ([`Deck::Deck1`] + [`Deck::Deck2`], 104 cards) dealt into ten
+//! [`Pile`]s, exercising the multi-deck [`Card`] encoding and the
+//! `Stack`/`Pile` public API that `klondike` uses internally.
+//!
+//! ## Rules implemented
+//!
+//! - 10 tableau piles: the first 4 receive 6 cards, the last 6 receive
+//!   5 (top card face-up) — 54 dealt, 50 in stock.
+//! - Build down regardless of suit; only same-suit descending runs may
+//!   be picked up and moved.
+//! - Empty piles accept any card or movable run.
+//! - The stock deals one card to every pile (10 total), only while no
+//!   pile is empty.
+//! - A completed K→A same-suit run is removed automatically; the game
+//!   is won when all 8 runs are removed.
+//! - Difficulty via suit count ([`SpiderSuits`]): 1, 2, or 4 suits
+//!   spread over the same 104 cards.
+//!
+//! ## Determinism
+//!
+//! Deals are seeded with an inline SplitMix64 + Fisher–Yates shuffle:
+//! `solitaire_core` has no `rand` dependency (and adding one needs
+//! explicit approval), so Spider's seed space is deliberately
+//! self-contained rather than shared with Klondike's `StdRng` seeds.
+//! The same seed + suit count always produces the same deal.
+//!
+//! ## Card identity caveat (engine integration, later phase)
+//!
+//! [`Card`] packs deck/suit/rank into one byte, and 1- and 2-suit
+//! games need more than four copies of a suit, so *identical* `Card`
+//! values legitimately coexist (e.g. eight `♠A` in a 1-suit game,
+//! spread over `Deck1..Deck4` twice). Rules only compare suit/rank so
+//! core is unaffected, but the engine's `Card → Entity` mapping is
+//! keyed by card value and will need positional keys before a Spider
+//! UI lands.
