fifa17-recon: futlog.py -- client-filtered log reader, and a correction it caught

Implements the standing requirement recorded in priority-2026-08 S5: the User-Agent
filter is now the DEFAULT in the log tooling, not an option. The real client sends
ProtoHttp; our own probes send curl/* or Python-urllib/*. Reading the log unfiltered
gave this project a materially wrong picture of itself (/clubUser and /user/list had 93
and 180 hits, none from the game).

The old futlog.py was a one-off with a hardcoded path and no notion of who made the
request. Replaced with a real tool: timeline or summary, body/response display, path
regex, time window, status filter, and an --unmapped view that lists the endpoints the
client wants and we catch-all. --all and --probes exist for when you deliberately want
our own traffic.

Over the full 3044-request history: 486 requests came from the game.

IT IMMEDIATELY CAUGHT ME OVERSTATING SOMETHING. Yesterday's commit called the PUT /item
request shape "captured for the first time (the client had never successfully reached
this path)". False. There are NINE client PUT /item requests in the log, eight of them
during the failed attempts, every one carrying swap and tradeId:

  08:45:11 08:51:13 08:55:21 08:58:19 09:10:52 09:15:26 09:22:31 09:37:12 | 11:15:48

The request was on the wire and in the log the whole time. What was new was reading it.
Same class of error as the truncated decompile in S16: evidence already collected and
not looked at. REBUILD_RESEARCH S17 corrected.

`FUT_PACK_AUTOCLUB` now defaults **off**.
### New intel: the request shape
Captured for the first time (the client had never successfully reached this path):
### The request shape
```json
{"itemData":[{"id":100000125,"pile":"club","swap":0,"tradeId":0}, ...]}
```
`swap` and `tradeId` accompany `id` and `pile`. We ignore both and the move
succeeded, so neither is load-bearing for a pending-pile-to-club move. `TODO/CONFIRM`
what `swap` means for a squad-slot exchange, where it plausibly is.

**Correction to the first version of this section**, which called this shape "captured
for the first time" because "the client had never successfully reached this path". That
is wrong. `futlog.py` over the full history shows **nine** client `PUT /item` requests,
eight of them before today, all carrying `swap` and `tradeId`:

WHY THE FILTER IS THE DEFAULT, and why every future analysis tool here should do the
same. The log records User-Agent. The real client sends ProtoHttp; this project's own
probes send curl/* or Python-urllib/*. Reading the log unfiltered gave the project a
materially wrong picture of itself: /clubUser and /user/list had 93 and 180 recorded
hits and NOT ONE came from the game, while endpoints assumed to be exercised turned out
to be exercised only by us. Any claim of the form "the client asks for X" made before
this distinction existed is unsupported until re-checked with the filter on.
print(f"{len(rows)} requests since marker\n")
print("verb path n")
for (v, p), n in counts.most_common():
print(f"{v:6} {p:48} {n}")
The corollary matters just as much: do NOT probe the live server while the client is
running. It pollutes the evidence you are collecting. Probe a scratch instance on
another port instead.

# the live URL is /squad/<id> (e.g. /squad/0), not a bare /squad -- match on the
# segment, not endswith, or the headline result reads as a false negative.

The log defaults to utas_server.py's own LOG path and can be pointed elsewhere with
FUT_LOG or a positional argument, because the harness has been started both ways.
