re: audit the legacy IDXD reader against the real field table — and fix a test that encoded its error
With the record table decoded there is finally a ground truth to check the
old string-pool reader against. It infers `key -> value` from pool adjacency,
which is a consequence of how records are written, not a rule of the format.
Verified by hand against the disc, with an independent parser:
* `FCSRange` = 500000.0 — the module docs' own canonical example of a field
"left at its default" that "omits the value string".
* `ShieldRatio` = 1.0, where `tests/pak_idxd_disc.rs` asserted None with the
comment "a defaulted/omitted field must be None". That test encoded the
false belief; it now keeps the None as a deliberate characterisation of the
legacy reader, with the true value asserted beside it.
* `get_raw("Model")` on GP_HANGAR_ARSENAL returns the first record's model for
every record — silent corruption, not an absent value. New test pins four
records that disagree with it.
The cause is the flat API having no way to name a record: only 548 of 6325
objects have one. `HP` on the DeltaSaber answers 1000.0, the hull, while 63
Turret_* records each carry their own 100.0 (measured — a first draft said 34,
taken from a report rather than from the disc).
Disc-wide rates are recorded as single-source and labelled as such: get_raw
52% wrong, typed getters 38% miss, but 100% correct on single-record objects.
Also records a negative result: the 504 unnamed field keys were NOT recovered.
A 572464-string dictionary and 73191 variants gave 0/42. The key deltas do
prove the preimage ends with the two decimal digits.
