What

Until now only the face turned when a pet went the other way, so a chameleon walked right with its tail in front. Forms whose head is on one side and whose tail, shell or ball is on the other are now drawn fully mirrored when they face the other way. HEADING in core/src/scene.ts lists them: 7 babies, 12 children and 19 adults. This applies at home, on trips, in a scuffle, as a visitor and in the yard. Their light then comes from the top right.

Round forms, and forms whose only asymmetry is something held in one hand (tray, lance, plan, teapot spout), only turn their face, as before. Their "the body isn't drawn mirrored" effects stay as they are.

Effects checked form by form

• A part that moves by itself, cropped from the frame (Lionkite's head, Solroll's sun ball), is mirrored along with the body.
• reach() knows the facing, which fixes the backpack position, where thrown food lands and the fishing spot.
• Effects tied to a spot of the body now go through a new art() / column() helper: Cogsqueak's key ticks, Snorbear's yawn, Origrane's paper planes, Lionkite's fireworks and pompoms, Mossolotl's moss, Mirrorleon's prism and Solroll's ball vault.
• Palettino and Axodrake used to turn round by hand (turn) for their special move. That turn is removed, because facing the opponent they are already turned.
• Fountaingle's water and Rapierre's beak flash already assumed a mirrored body, so they are now correct in both directions.

Tests

• New scene test: a turned form facing right is exactly the mirror of the same form facing left, and round forms are unchanged.
• npm run check passes. npm test: 456 pass, 1 fail. The one failure is api.test.ts (festival fields in the contract), and it fails the same way on main without this change.
• docs/images/pets and docs/pet_preview.png are unchanged: icons are drawn without a facing, and blob and Angloop are not in the list.

The test check failed in core/test/api.test.ts ("a change to the API raises its version"). This change didn't cause it: the test reads the pet's answers on today's date, so the festival fields come and go with the poster, and main fails the same way. #141 already fixes it by pinning the test to a festival day. I copied that same change into this PR (5b48aa0), and it will do nothing extra once #141 is merged. Locally, all 457 tests pass and npm run check is clean.
