feat: detect race replay chapters

Add deterministic server-side chapter detection for starts, flag periods, pit phases, decisive top-five swings, and finishes, then expose chapters on the race-hub payload. Spike result: race-hub already loads race control, positions, and laps in one read model. The requested Detect signature does not include pit stops, so pit phases use IsPitOutLap clusters as the local deterministic pit-stop proxy.

AmanTahiliani	7212eb9b44	feat: detect race replay chapters Add deterministic server-side chapter detection for starts, flag periods, pit phases, decisive top-five swings, and finishes, then expose chapters on the race-hub payload. Spike result: race-hub already loads race control, positions, and laps in one read model. The requested Detect signature does not include pit stops, so pit phases use IsPitOutLap clusters as the local deterministic pit-stop proxy.	2026-07-11 18:04:44 -04:00
