* Fix NHL bracket-aware simulation and MLB sourceElo support
NHL: NHLSimulator now checks for a populated playoff_game bracket before
falling back to season-projection mode. When a bracket exists (e.g. via
simple_16 template), it simulates the actual bracket structure, respecting
completed matches and using ELO+odds blending for the rest — matching the
pattern used by Snooker, NBA, and UCL simulators.
MLB: MLBSimulator now reads sourceElo from participantExpectedValues and
converts it to an effective RDif (via eloToRDif), overriding the hardcoded
TEAMS_DATA.rdif when present. This wires up the expected-wins admin form
(which saves sourceElo) to the simulation engine.

* Wire sourceElo from projected wins form into NBA, NHL, and WNBA simulators
All three simulators had entries in simulator-config.ts (enabling the projected
wins form in the admin UI) but silently ignored the sourceElo that was saved.
NBA: Both bracket-aware and season-projection modes now load sourceElo and
prefer it over hardcoded TEAMS_DATA elo. Added resolvedElo field to TeamEntry
so eloOfEntry() uses the correct value throughout.
NHL: Season-projection mode now fetches sourceElo + sourceOdds in a single
parallel query (removing the duplicate evRows query). Bracket-aware mode also
loads sourceElo alongside sourceOdds. Both modes use sourceElo > TEAMS_DATA > 1400.
WNBA: resolveElo() now accepts sourceElo as an optional highest-priority
argument. The evRows query fetches sourceElo alongside sourceOdds and passes
it through when building team entries.

* Add review fixes: NHL R1 validation, WNBA sourceElo tests, NHL bracket unit tests
- NHLSimulator.simulateBracket: remove unused nameById variable
- NHLSimulator.simulateBracket: validate all R1 participants before entering
Monte Carlo loop; throws with a clear message if any slot is missing
- wnba-simulator.test.ts: add 5 tests covering the sourceElo override parameter
on resolveElo() (overrides SRS, overrides futures, overrides fallback,
null/undefined fall through to normal priority chain)
- nhl-simulator.test.ts: add full bracket-aware integration suite (10 tests)
covering fallback to season-projection, structure validation errors, probability
distributions, fully-decided champion, and source tag

* Fix TS error: add resolvedElo to makeEntry in nhl-simulator.test.ts
TeamEntry requires resolvedElo after the simulator refactor.

* Fix lint: replace non-null assertions with null-safe alternatives in NHL test

* Add WNBA playoff simulator with SRS-based Elo ratings, fixes#125
- New WNBASimulator: Monte Carlo (50k sims) projecting remaining regular
season games → seeding → R1 Bo3 / Semis Bo5 / Finals Bo7 bracket
- Hybrid Elo sourcing: pre-season uses futures odds (ICM); once avg
gamesPlayed ≥ 5, switches automatically to SRS-derived Elo
(elo = 1500 + srs × 20)
- New WnbaStandingsAdapter: fetches ESPN standings + teams endpoints in
parallel; includes zero-records for 2026 expansion teams (Portland
Fire, Toronto Tempo) not yet in standings
- Added srs column to regular_season_standings (migration 0063);
stored as net rating proxy (avgPointsFor − avgPointsAgainst)
- Added wnba_bracket to simulatorTypeEnum
