Restructure balancing docs into docs/balancing/

Split the cluttered progression_design.md and content_design.md into
separated documents by role:

- docs/balancing/rules.md    - design rules and principles (moved from
                               progression_design.md, which is removed)
- docs/balancing/targets.md  - the chosen base numbers: run shape,
                               factory curve, threat ladder (achieved
                               values adopted), combat anchors, pacing
                               anchors
- docs/balancing/derived.md  - current tuned state of all derived
                               numbers, mirroring the configs
- docs/balancing/process.md  - pass order, tuning discipline learned in
                               arena rounds 1-5, tools, next-round
                               checklist
- docs/balancing/history.md  - chronological record: decisions, numbers
                               pass, calculator bugs, arena rounds,
                               pacing pass
- docs/balancing/README.md   - index, status, open action items (moved
                               from progression_design.md)

content_design.md slims back down to actual content: footprint gating,
hull grids, gating matrix (module names updated to railguns), and the
production tree structure with its fiction - numbers, anchors, arena
logs, and pacing all moved to docs/balancing/. Stale references in the
config comments updated to the new locations.
