/**

 * The world, drawn from inside the player's head.

 *

 * One pass of rays across the screen builds the walls and a depth buffer;

 * everything else — bodies, the game's own props, tracers — is a billboard

 * tested against that buffer, so a body behind a corner is not drawn at all.

 * Fog is measured along each ray, not painted as a disc: cross one and

 * everything past it fogs.

 *

 * The ray loop allocates nothing and draws nothing: it writes a shade level,

 * a face and a slice into the column arrays, and `slices.js` collapses those

 * into runs so a flat wall costs one `fillRect` and not one a column.

 * Colours come out of a table built once, the depth and column buffers are

 * kept between frames, and the sprite list is sorted in a buffer the scene

 * owns.

 *

 * Nothing here knows what the game is. What a body is and how it hides is

 * generic; what stands on the floor besides bodies, and what fogs a ray, the

 * game says through `view` — see `drawScene`.
