GeneEggLaying (species-fixed) selects the conception cycle: viviparous animals
carry to a live birth (existing path); oviparous animals, after the same gravid
period, LAY eggs instead. New Egg entity (carries the already-bred offspring
genome) + EggSystem incubates and hatches it into a baby. AnimalPregnancySystem
branches on the mother's birth type. Adds an oviparous showcase species, Chicken.
Eggs are serialized (WorldSave.Eggs) like corpses, so clutches survive save/load.
Also lays the foundation for creating any species or hybrid (full command/UI
deferred): AnimalSet.HybridGenome(base, other) produces a cross anchored to a
base species' body/gene-set with shared genes blended Mendelian-style — so
Create(species, GenerateGenome) makes any species and Create(species,
HybridGenome) makes any hybrid.
EggTexture on AnimalDef (defaults to the seed dot placeholder); reproduction line
added to the `animal` console command. Build + --check-content clean (41 genes,
40 traits). Not GUI-verified.
