Switch Step 0 (Clade) and Step 1 (Species) from a 3-column card grid
to a 1-column layout, with each card carrying a codex-voice
description paragraph between the meta line and the trait chips.
Rationale: establish the world's tone before mechanics — the player
reads who Canidae or Wolf-Folk *are* before evaluating ability mods
and trait pills. Trade is more vertical scrolling, but the card
content was already going wider than three columns comfortably
allowed once the parchment theme bumped padding.
Schema: CladeDef and SpeciesDef gain a Description field (string,
empty default). Populated for all 7 clades and 19 species, sourced
from the doc's italicized blockquote + a one-sentence summary of
the prose paragraph that follows. Empty descriptions fall through
silently — a species without a description still renders, just
without the paragraph.
UI: MakeGrid in both steps becomes Columns = 1 with ExpandFill;
BuildCard sets card.SizeFlagsHorizontal = ExpandFill (replaces the
fixed CustomMinimumSize 200) and prepends the autowrap description
label after the meta line. Hybrid mode stacks sire and dam single-
column grids vertically — same logic as before, just one card wide
each.
