test(ecosystem): add ecosystem simulation tests
5 ecosystem tests verifying: - Single species stabilizes with food - Predator-prey dynamics reduce prey population - Starvation without food leads to decline - Mixed ecosystem runs 500 ticks without errors - Lifecycle drives population renewal through egg hatching 293 total tests passing Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

* Ecosystem Test — verify populations fluctuate without dying out
|

*
|
||||
* Runs a headless simulation with all creature systems active,
|
||||
* no player present. Verifies:
|
||||
* - Populations oscillate (Lotka-Volterra dynamics)
|
||||
* - No species goes fully extinct within the test window
|
||||
* - Reproduction keeps populations alive
|
||||
* - Predation reduces prey population
