Reworked terrain transitions

- New terrain heights meet saved boundaries while retaining local relief
- Surface water levels approach saved fluid heights across the band
- Cave and physical biome matching use a four-block seam patch
- Terrain generates once without speculative neighbor containment
- Bounded caches serve transition membership and boundary lookups
- Saved biome writes honor the selected durability policy
- Release labels and presentation code leave generation identity unchanged
- Unfinished objects retain blocks and metadata across pack changes
- Whole structure assemblies preserve pending excavation and foundations
- New placements keep pending historical pieces clear
- Transition probes cover cutovers and retained object fragments
