fix six critical bugs from audit sprint

save/load round-trip: workbench bills, crop static-method, bed owner,
wolf target now all survive reload via Bill.from_dict reconstruction,
_spawn_crop using setup(), and a new _post_load_resolve_references pass.

PlantProvider: sow path added; consumes 1 grain on a TILLED crop tile.

CraftingProvider: ingredient2 supported via new KIND_DEPOSIT_AT_WB toil
and Workbench.deposited_inputs buffer. Cremation pyre now actually
consumes wood.

HaulingProvider: per-item haul_retry_count + haul_rejected after 3
orphan passes; new EventBus.stockpile_layout_changed resets rejects on
any player stockpile edit.

Storyteller: 14 stubbed event effects implemented. New buff registry
(add_buff/get_buff_multiplier/has_buff, day-prune, save/load) drives
seasonal/resource events. New request_pawn_spawn signal + WANDERER
table for arrivals. New SICK status + 3 mood thoughts.
