Phase 5 visual polish: real 3/4 walls, bigger cabin, subtle grass

User feedback after first visual inspection: 'walls looked really thick
and there was hardly any inside space'. Five targeted fixes:

1. Wall._draw rewrite — proper within-tile 3/4 perspective. Previously the
   wall was a 16w×32h bottom-anchored rect that rose UP into the cell
   above (which encroached on the cabin interior whenever the wall faced
   south). New layout: 16×16 fitting strictly inside its own tile, with
   a lit-top 5px band + shaded-front 11px band + mortar lines + outline.
   Reads as 'a wall standing up' without overlapping adjacent cells.
   Same shape for stone and wood materials (different palettes).

2. Demo cabin expanded from 5×4 to 8×6 — interior went from 6 cells
   (closet) to 24 cells (actual room).

3. Grass-tile border darken: 0.15 → 0.04. Killed the graph-paper effect
   that dominated at 3×+ zoom. Tile boundary still readable when looking
   carefully; doesn't dominate the visual.

4. Removed Phase 1 _paint_sample_walls() seed. That 8×8 stone ring lived
   only on the Wall TileMap layer (set to visible=false in the Phase 5
   rendering pivot) — so it was an invisible path obstacle. Cleaner to
   not seed it at all now that walls render at entity level.

5. CameraRig default target_zoom: 1.0 → 2.5. At 1× on a 1280-px viewport
   the world feels sparse and pawns become 6-pixel dots. 2.5× shows ~30
   tiles wide which is the 'comfortable inspection' level.

MCP-verified visually: the cabin now reads as a proper 8×6 stone room
with raised 3/4 walls and a real 24-cell interior. Subtle grass field.
The 'commit to 3/4 perspective' rendering decision is now actually
visible (was conceptual-only before).
