Reorganize the combat turn sequence to handle Venom, Carapace, and Molt effects within the `_preBattlePhase`. This ensures damage and stat changes occur before buffs and attacks, allowing for accurate pre-attack animations and logic.
Key changes:
- **CombatEngine.js**:
- Extracted `_moltPhase` and `_tryCarapace` to handle armor gain and HP conversion separately from the main attack loop.
- Moved Venom and Molt execution to `_preBattlePhase` to run before `_commanderSkillPhase` and `_attackPhase`.
- Updated pre-attack logic to capture `carapaceGain` for animation purposes without emitting duplicate events.
- Added `moltRestore` logic to regenerate a fresh shell for attackers before they strike.
- **SkillProcessor.js**:
- Adjusted `venom` skill logic to update stacks only if the target is below the new value, preventing redundant updates.
- **BattleScene.js**:
- Updated event filtering and animation pipelines to handle `venomTick`, `carapace`, and `molt` events during the pre-battle sequence.
- Added visual effects (sprites 27-31) and tween animations for Venom application, Carapace hardening, and Molt shedding/restoration.
- Implemented `_restoreMoltForDisplay` and `_reapplyMolt` to ensure the UI renders pre-combat states correctly before animating changes.
- **CardManager.js**:
- Added `baseArmor` tracking to support Carapace cap calculations.
- **Data**:
- Updated `missions.json` to refine Xeno enemy lineups for missions 014 through 020.
- Updated Xeno card assets and UI images.
