fix(game): use the original Borland random stream

Replace the Xorshift state with the reconstructed Borland Win16 generator,
including its wrapping linear update and high-word Random(n) mapping. Route
launcher clamp variation, effect selection, and claw terminal choices through
one shared stream so seeded event order follows the executable.

Use the same stream for the recovered magnetic-field response. Fields now scale
horizontal speed by 0.9 and choose the upward impulse from
-3800 * (1 - Random * 0.3) instead of assigning a fixed -3000 velocity. Adjust
deterministic scenario expectations where the original stream permits a second
natural claw capture or does not force one during a particular autoplay seed.

Test Plan:
- `cargo test --all-targets` -- passed, 56 tests
- `cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings` -- passed
- `rumdl check CHANGELOG.md RECONSTRUCTION.md` -- passed
- `git diff --cached --check` -- passed

 ### Fixed
 
+- Replace the Xorshift gameplay RNG with the original Borland linear stream and
+  unbiased `Random(n)` high-word mapping. Launcher variation, effect selection,
+  claw terminals, and magnetic-field impulses now share the recovered sequence.
+- Restore the magnetic-field response as `vx * 0.9` and a randomized
+  `-3800 * (1 - Random * 0.3)` vertical impulse instead of a fixed upward speed.
 - Dispatch the original per-call-site sound sequences instead of assigning one
   guessed WAV to each logical event. This removes the nonexistent WAV 2022
   playback and restores bank, trigger, capture, nudge, tilt, and drain cues.

 | Help and languages | Exact | Original resource images 1001-1005 are displayed directly. |
 | Playfield collision layout | Recovered | All 109 active type-2 line objects and 40 static active type-1 circles are transcribed from the original 175-object registration table. The registration routine converts its sideways inputs with `screen = (y, x - 20)` and accumulates explicitly relative objects. Type-2 records retain every recovered Real48 normal/tangent response pair and registered one-sided orientation. Type-1 records retain their swept-circle radius, radial rebound, tangent coupling, and bumper kick. Each flipper uses its exact two line records plus moving tip circle in both positions. The upward edge transfer matches three live probes and the downstroke matches its live position-preserving `(3519,6302)` transfer; both are mirrored on the right. Object 174 is omitted because the original overwrites it with the live ball every frame. |
 | Ball launcher | Recovered | The initial 32-bit fixed-point coordinates decode to `(325, 413)` in the right shooter lane. The port reproduces the initial `-375` millipixel Down event, 650 ms repeat delay, 40 ms repeats, release impulse, and randomized clamp below the original `-3800` maximum. This replaces the former guessed 330-430 px/s shot. |
-| Physics arithmetic | Recovered gameplay behavior | Production movement uses the original 10 ms millipixel substep, `+15` vertical acceleration, `3800` speed bound, point-path type-2 intersection, one-sided line response, swept type-1 circle response, and swept non-physical sensor contacts. It evaluates all records and applies the earliest contact along the substep. Live probes cover ordinary rails, ordinary circles, a kicked bumper, lock holes, magnetic fields, all claw exits, and both flipper directions. Rust represents the original per-ball contact words as path-entry/inside latches; this is a source-structure difference rather than a missing collision route. |

 | Rules | Recovered gameplay paths | Player count, controls, the five three-line bumper-value groups, four three-line TDK-diamond groups, five doubling-value lock holes, wheel-reset target, seven-way effect selector/consumer including multiball, permanent double scoring, and four exact media/extra-ball thresholds follow original help/code paths, globals, and object flags. The ninth diamond pays the original 24,464 completion value; the following completed bank enables double scoring, and later completions add 100,000 to the per-player secondary score. Claw contact and all initially active type-4 targets use recovered records. The top three targets score 500 each and independently enable the left, center, or right magnetic field record; each field pulls the ball upward until it exits and then deactivates. The claw state machine and release table have live differential coverage for all four random terminals. Remaining timing uncertainty is presentation batching at non-default detail settings, not gameplay routing. |
 | Numeric scoring | Recovered gameplay values | Static scores come from the initialized 175-object ledger. Dynamic bumper progression, target-bank completion, diamond awards, 10k-160k lock bonuses, 310k transfer, six effect values, multiball mode, and all four media thresholds are transcribed from `1000:b476`, `1000:c4e1`, `1000:bc36`, and live state probes. Score mutation uses the original 32-bit wrapping behavior, and each add operation can advance at most one media threshold. |
