fifa17-recon: populate transfer market with real listings (freeze-safe)

Serve 18 real-player auctions on GET auctionhouse (search) built to the reversed
auction record schema (deser 0x18013e410) field-for-field: itemData reuses
fut_store._item (the proven club/squad card parser 0x18013fe00), scalar fields
all HIGH-confidence reversed. Rating-based buy-now pricing; tradeId space
900000000+. tradePile/watchList stay empty (no live sell/watch flow yet). Toggle
off with FUT_MARKET=empty.

Extend test_fut_contract.py to validate EVERY populated record field type
(numbers/strings/bool/object) so the listings are proven freeze-safe OFFLINE
before the game parses them. 311 checks, all passing.
