The previous commit gated the simulator re-run on a `bracketAware` flag set only
on afl_bracket and llws_bracket, on the claim that every other simulator was
bracket-blind and would resurrect eliminated teams if re-run. That claim was
wrong. Eleven more read playoff_matches and honor isComplete/winnerId already:
ucl, ncaam, ncaaw (both via ncaa-basketball), nba, nhl, snooker, world_cup,
darts, cs2_major, college_hockey and nll. All thirteen are now flagged, so any
sport with a bracket the simulator can read absorbs a result by re-running that
simulator rather than through ICM.
Two simulators are deliberately left off. playoff_bracket and
ncaa_football_bracket declare a "bracket" setup section but never read
playoff_matches, so re-running them really would re-draw the field. That
mismatch runs the other way too — world_cup, darts_bracket and
cs2_major_qualifying_points read the bracket without declaring the section — so
setupSections is not a usable signal here and the flag stays separate from it,
with both facts written down on the flag.
The EV-source condition is also gone. It only asked whether the existing EVs
came from a simulation, which protected nothing: the alternative to re-running
was never leaving them alone, it was the ICM branch overwriting them anyway.
Given two overwrites, the bracket-aware one wins regardless of what wrote them.
Tests: a bracket-blind simulator still goes through ICM, futures-odds EVs no
longer divert a bracket-aware season away from the re-run, and the bracket-aware
set is pinned in the manifest test so a new simulator is an explicit decision
rather than a default.
