The retained-mode "2nd CG renders off-screen" bug: GfxState conflated two
distinct native structures. It assigned a fabricated AcquireSlot() slot on
every GetOrCreate (called by all geometry/draw ops) and returned it from
QuerySlot (op 0x215). But Ghidra (gfx_op_0x215_register_query @0x42a0b0 /
gfx_op_0x1a2_registry_insert @0x42d360) shows 0x215 does map.find(handle) over
a registry populated ONLY by op 0x1a2 -- it never allocates a slot.
So a CG handle (never 0x1a2-registered) read back as "existing", took the
existing branch of label_12649, ran get-texture-size on the wrong slot (0),
got size 0, and computed dst = pos(0,0) - (w/2,h) = (-400,-600) -> off-screen.
The real engine returns -1 -> the fresh branch -> anchor from the INIT2 arrays
-> dst=(0,0).
Fix: GfxState keeps a separate _registry (HashSet) populated only by
Register() (op 0x1a2); QuerySlot returns the handle if registered else -1, and
no longer consults the geometry store or invents slots. Drop AcquireSlot /
GfxObject.Slot / the free-list.
Verified: Age.Cli gfx --boot SC0000.BIN -> all event CGs dst=(0,0), zero
(-400,-600) draws; Godot --boot pages 1/2/4 render opening CGs full-screen;
engine 44/44; sweep parity 284 exit / 13 STEP-LIMIT unchanged.

0x1a2/0x215 rebuilt; Ghidra helpers gfx_registry_map_find/hash_insert
annotated + saved. Tests rewritten to the native contract.

GfxState: SurfaceStore (slot->{resId,colorkey} from create/set-texture) + object
SourceSlot/SrcRect/Visible (from draw-texture bind); SnapshotVisibleObjects returns
visible objects in ascending-handle order (=z-order) with their live surface resolved.
VM set/create/draw-texture wired to it. Oracle dumps visible objects. Erase removes the
object from the registry (faithful). Engine 44 green.

0x202/0x203 pack (alpha,color) via GfxState.PackColor onto the object; the actual
alpha/additive blend is deferred and surfaced once through the trace sink (observe-
only, parity held). Full suite 37 green.

Gfx property on VirtualMachine + dispatch cases for the query ops (0x215/0x216/
0x218/0x21a), set ops (0x217/0x219/0x1ff/0x212/0x213) and lifecycle (0x1a2/0x1f7/
0x1fa). Query ops write results to operands like get-texture-size; set ops mutate
GfxState. Round-trip + distinct-slot tests pass; full suite 36 green (parity held).
