docs(settings-panel): seal the prototype arc and open the build

Prototypes P12-P37 land, along with the night-watch and levels-compare pages plus the shared-engine updates and the kit-candidate file. The spec flips from DRAFT through READY to DOING with rewritten implementation phases and seven recorded build findings. The build tasks are filed in todo.org, and phase 1 is closed against the dotfiles commits.
