Answer the review: a gradient over the names, a zero-distance neighbour, two lost docblocks

Three findings out of forty-one raised survived being argued against, and all
three were real.

The vignette was painting over the label layer. It lived in the HUD component,
which sits after the label host in the same stack with neither carrying a
z-index, so paint order was tree order and a decorative gradient was laid over
the names — worst at the edge of the frame, which is precisely where the
neighbour ring is. Composited, the ghost's distance line fell to 4.02:1, under
the floor the CSS next to it claims. The gradient is scene chrome rather than
HUD chrome, so it moves down between the canvas and the labels; the authored
contrast then holds as written, and every label near the edge — planets
included — is read against the sky rather than through a wash of void.

A binary companion printed "0.00 pc". A catalogue holds a close pair as two
rows at one position, so the nearest neighbour to one of them is the other,
zero away — the exact string the readout deliberately suppresses for a star's
distance from itself. The query now asks wide and drops any separation that
prints as no separation, compared through the formatter rather than against a
hand-picked epsilon so the rule survives the formatter changing.

And the edit that added all this had been spliced between updateSystemLabels'
docblock and its body, leaving a paragraph about labelling planets sitting
over the neighbour resolution and the method it described with nothing, plus
two divergent copies of the same fourteen lines seventy-five apart. Both are
back where they belong.

Verified: build clean, 558/558 unit, 7/7 end-to-end, design detector clean,
screenshots re-read in Sol and Proxima Centauri.
