Fix condition mechanics: per-statistic PF2e penalties, 5e exhaustion, slowed, frightened decay

- PF2e clumsy/enfeebled/drained/stupefied now penalise their correct, independent
  statistic family (Dex/Str/Con/mental) instead of collapsing into one max'd '−N status'.
  Frightened/sickened are 'all checks'. Distinct badges per family.
- Slowed is action loss only (no roll penalty); fatigued shows flat −1 AC/saves —
  neither is value-scaled anymore.
- 5e Exhaustion now derives its cumulative level effects (ability-check disadvantage L1,
  speed halved L2, attack + all-save disadvantage L3, speed 0 L5, dead L6).
- 5e Prone badge is range-qualified (adv. melee / disadv. ranged).
- New tickConditionsEndOfTurn: PF2e Frightened decays by 1 at end of turn (wired into
  nextTurn via the combat tracker), removed at 0.

MechanicalState.statusPenalty (single number) → statusPenalties (per-family map).
Tests updated + added. Deferred: Drained HP/max-HP reduction (needs creature level
threaded into the damage flow).
