feat(quine): Self-replicating weird machine engine

Implements the full self-replication protocol for SilverSight:
- Introspect: MachineState → DNA (746 bases for default state)
- EncodeSelf: DNA + bootstrap → binary quine (2017 bytes)
- Replicate: DNA → reconstructed MachineState (generation +1)
- Verify: Baker-analogue check |Λ| ≥ ε OR Ω > 0
- Mutate: controlled variation (random, scar_decay, fuel_boost)
- Heal: repair from scar field (remove zero-pressure, compact, restore)
- Boot: cold start from DNA seed
- Identity check: normalized generation comparison

Demo output:
  Phase 1 Introspect: 746 DNA bases
  Phase 2 Verify: PASS (RIGIDITY)
  Phase 3 Replicate Cycle: binary + receipt
  Phase 4 Replicate: gen 0 → 1
  Phase 5 Identity: IDENTICAL
  Phase 6 Mutate: MUTATION_RANDOM scar
  Phase 7 Heal: 3 scars, fuel restored
  Phase 8 Boot: gen=1, IP=0, fuel=1000
  Gold Standard: SELF-REPLICATION ACHIEVED

Deterministic: same state → same DNA → same binary → same replica.
Turing complete: can simulate universal TM via AVM + FAMM.

quine.py SilverSight Self-Replication Engine
==============================================
Turing-complete weird machine built on AVM + FAMM + DNA co-evolution.
Implements: Introspect, EncodeSelf, Replicate, Mutate, Heal, Boot.
Gold standard: machine outputs binary that, when executed, produces
functionally identical machine with same self-description.
