Decompose command.go; command keys become a handler table (step 7)

The ordinary command keys move into gameData.commandHandlers (method expressions and small literals); dispatchKey keeps only re-dispatching prefixes (runCommand/fightCommand/repeatCommand/moveOnCommand) and the wizard fallthrough. command() splits into playTurn/turnUpkeep/ readCommand/executeCommand/countPrefix/ringTurnEffects; search gains searchSpot/searchFloor; help gains helpOne/helpAll/helpLines; call gains callTarget/callPrelude; wizardCommand splits in two plus wizardKit; uLevel and current flatten to early returns. command.go is complexity-clean. Behavior and RNG call order unchanged.
