re: the trailing data table is a per-phase TIMELINE of scheduled routines

Decodes the table found at the end of every phase region.  Layout:

    int  N
    N x [ int offset ; float t ; int kind ]      -- 8-byte typed records,
                                                    tag 0x19 int, 0x1A float

1 + 3N matches the record count in every phase measured (Stage 02: 76/40/55
records for N = 25/13/18).

Checks, all independent of each other:
  schedule entries disc-wide                675
  0x1A float records disc-wide              675   (counted by a different route)
  offsets landing on the instruction stream 675/675 = 100.0%
  control, random 4-aligned offsets                  33.3%

The floats are seconds -- 0, 0.5, 1, 4, 5, 30, 50, 60, 90, 120, 150, 170, 180, 210,
240, 270, 300, 330, 360, 420, 570, 1020, 1080, 1140, 1170 -- and the targets are small
one-shot coroutines that set arguments, call one built-in and end_coroutine.  kind is
0 (556) or 5 (119) and is not identified.

Runtime cross-check, recorded as consistency rather than confirmation: the closed
REMAINING OB work measured Stage 02's squadron arrivals at t = 0, 120 and 210 s over
n=5 emulator runs, and all three appear in phase 1's static schedule, with 120 and 210
each appearing TWICE.  These are round numbers and phase 1 has ~22 distinct times over
0-1170, so presence alone is not unlikely; the doubling is the sharper detail and was
not predicted in advance.

New artefacts data/isl-stage02-schedule.txt and data/isl-schedule-all.txt with a
committed generator (isl_report.py schedule).  calls, phase-ends, conditions and
phase-guards all regenerate byte-identical.

Not settled and said so: kind is unread; the consumer is unread, so the decode rests
on the structural checks above; whether the clock is per-phase or per-mission is an
inference from the layout; and this is NOT what starts the unreachable code -- 0 of
the 675 targets are unreached run-starts, so that ~15% gap stands.
