Katan: no roads past an opponent's settlement, piece limits, stable layout

Rules
- A road may only start from a crossing where the player has a building, or
  where one of their roads ends AND no opponent's settlement or city stands.
  roadConnects ignored opponents' buildings, so a road (the computer's included)
  could be laid straight past a settlement. Also applies to Road Building.
- Enforce the piece supply: 15 roads, 5 settlements, 4 cities. It was
  unlimited.
- Tests: building past a settlement and a city, free roads, own settlement not
  blocking, and running out of each piece.

UI
- The layout rescaled the board whenever it became the player's turn, because
  the action buttons only existed then. Everything outside the board now has a
  fixed height: the action bar always shows every button (disabled, not absent),
  the prompt is pinned to two lines, player cards always draw every line, and
  the dice total is always present. Rule recorded in docs/UI-catan.md.

5. **The state is immutable.** Never mutate it; submit a move.
6. **The layout must not move.** Everything outside the board has a *fixed
height*, and the board takes whatever is left, so the island's scale is the
same all game. Concretely: a control is *enabled or disabled*, never
*present or absent* (the action bar always shows every button); text that can
vary in length is pinned to a fixed number of lines (`minLines = maxLines`);
a line that is sometimes empty is still drawn (a non-breaking space), as the
award line on a player card is. A change that makes any non-board element
taller or shorter at runtime will rescale the board under the player's thumb.
