feat: migrate simulation to physically-based unit system

Replace arbitrary game units with real-world measurements throughout
the simulation and viewer: planet orbits in AU, sizes in km, galaxy
positions in light-years. Add SimulationUnits helpers for conversions,
separate WarpSpeed from FtlSpeed for ships, fix FTL transit progress
to use galaxy-space distances, overhaul Lagrange point placement with
Hill sphere approximation, and update the viewer to scale and format
all distances correctly. Ships in FTL transit now render in galaxy view.
