The package keeps the rules and hands them over each step: speed and heading, whether a jump
leaves, CHAR_STEP and the boots' slope limit. The walker (Jolt CharacterVirtual) does gravity,
landing, steps, slopes and following the ground down. Too steep is ground too steep facing the way
the body wanted to go; stepping off an edge is not. ludic.physics: phys_walker_move (follow the body
if something else moved it, then step), the slope limit, the jump always honoured. The character's
tests run on a real Jolt walker over the same fake world: 15 pass, a knee-high boulder now a step.

Five new tests: stand and walk at the asked speed, a low stone is a step and a tall one a wall, a
jump up and back, a crate shoved aside, a hull turned by a torque and carried by a force.

Our own shim (native/shim/jph_shim.cpp) over Jolt built from the pinned tag with cross-platform
determinism and no fp contraction: shapes as handles (box, sphere, capsule, cylinder, dome,
offset, heightfield, mesh), still/kinematic/dynamic bodies by id with real removal, rays,
top_at and push (what CharacterGround asks), overlaps, buoyancy against the PhysWater port,
contacts recorded in C and drained as PHYS_HIT / PHYS_SPLASH facts. Fixed 1/60 steps, at most four
a frame. Nine tests against the real library, including a pile run twice to the bit.
