fix(hud): stop showing the kill count twice on the commit summary

[mcdope]

Spotted while playtesting: the COMMIT SUMMARY screen shows the same number twice, one line apart.

Row	Source
Bugs squashed	main.ts → bugsSquashed: stats.kills
Kills	statRows → levelPlayerStats.kills

Both resolve to local.kills for the level just cleared — buildPlayerFacingStats is handed the same variable that EngineStats.kills carries. Not two related figures, literally one value rendered twice.

Why it survived

"Bugs squashed" is the older row. The summary used to be exactly two lines — Lines refactored and Bugs squashed — which is what EngineStats.kills' doc comment still described ("bugs squashed for the commit summary", now corrected). beta-9 switched the full stats block back on, and it brought its own generic Kills row with it.

The two rows are built in different files and only meet at runtime, so nothing in review or in the type system put them next to each other. It took playing a level.

The change

Keep Kills, drop Bugs squashed.

The duplication is why it was spotted; the name is why Kills won.

This game reads somebody's real source code. "Bugs squashed: 47" tells them their file contained 47 defects. It did not — it contained enemies derived from cyclomatic complexity, and complexity is not defects. A file can be gnarly and correct, or trivial and broken. A tool pointed at your codebase should not assert a defect count it has no basis for; Kills describes what happened and claims nothing about the code.

A second, smaller argument points the same way: the game has a literal Bug. placeTodoEncounter spawns one beside a TODO/FIXME terminal, and it is rare — on the demo campaign the tech-debt mix is trap 4 / mine 3 / Bug 1 across all 17 levels. So the row named the one entity that genuinely is a bug, while counting everything except it.

Consistency is a bonus rather than the reason: statRows is shared with both run-end screens, where the flavour name never appeared, so all three screens now call the row the same thing.

CommitSummaryInfo.bugsSquashed goes with it; the single production caller was the only thing supplying it. stats stays optional — nothing omits it today, but removing that affordance is wider than this needs. Say the word if you'd rather it were required.

On the test

It asserts the count, not just the absence of the old label:

expect(texts).not.toContain("Bugs squashed");
expect(texts.filter((t) => t === "Kills")).toHaveLength(1);

so re-introducing a duplicate under any other name still fails it.

I verified it actually catches the bug rather than trusting a green run — reinstated the row, watched the test go red, removed it again, watched it pass. A regression test that passes before and after is worth nothing.

Verification

• npm run build — clean, bundle hygiene clean
• npx vitest run --dir src — 3,683 passing (up 1: the new regression test), 135 files
• Coverage unchanged: 99.9 / 99.52 / 99.84 / 99.99, all four gates clear
