mmcghen 5359ec922c Organic construction: buildings from need, not quotas
Removes every predetermined construction trigger (shelters-per-capita
cap, granary-at-five-shelters milestone). Buildings now emerge from
lived need:

- Shelters have real bed capacity (3 + modules). A full house turns you
  away; three nights sleeping outside and a person gathers stone and
  raises a roof where they actually live. When nobody sleeps outside,
  nobody builds. Ruined shelters spill their sleepers, so settlements
  can migrate over time.
- The first granary is founded by memory: someone who has truly starved
  stockpiles food once the land gives again and builds storage where the
  harvest is. A second granary appears only when the first fills.
- Emergent consequence: freeriders compete for beds but never build,
  so scarce housing squeezes them into the open. The village never
  decides to punish them; the housing supply does.
