Step 10M.3: the deal hands over the veteran's Clipper

 - **"Bought from the Market" is a stored flag** (`ships.from_deal`) rather than "ships owned minus two", so it stays right if the deal's contents change. The migration marks each existing player's first ship as the deal's (it always is: the loaner isn't a row).
 - **The old `veteran-contracts` condition is removed**, not kept unused. `ships-owned` and `pilots-hired` stay as general-purpose conditions.
 - **A Priority delivery counts by the contract snapshot** (`record.contract.priority`), for any pilot, excluding tutorial runs (which are never Priority anyway).

+## Step 10M.3

+- **The veteran is stored like any assigned pilot** (location null, following the Clipper), so state shows them at Earth through the ship, as it does the avatar.
+- **The Clipper is named with the next seeded ship name**, after the Courier, the same way bought ships are.
+- **The old rest-and-swap test is replaced** by the CR's "both ships can be dispatched immediately" (both in flight at once); the profit-share check moved onto the veteran's Clipper run.

 - [x] **Step 10M.1 — Content: veteran skill and loan.** The veteran starts with **Expensive Cargo 1**. Config `dealLoanAmount` (5,000) is replaced by `deal: { avatarShipModelId: "courier", veteranShipModelId: "clipper", bayLocationId: "earth" }`, and the loan is computed by `dealLoanAmount({ config, shipModels, locations })` (`packages/content/src/deal.ts`), exposed as `content.dealLoanAmount`: 4,000 + 61,600 + 1,000 = **66,600 cr**. All users (server deal, loan card, deal modal, tests) read `content.dealLoanAmount`. Tests: config (deal ids; loan = Courier + Clipper + Earth lease; it moves by exactly the change when either price or the lease changes), veteran skills (content and server).
 - [x] **Step 10M.2 — Sim: goal changes.** Goal 3 is now `market-ship` "Buy a ship from the Market" (condition `market-ships-bought` 1) and goal 4 `priority-contract` "Complete a Priority contract" (`priority-deliveries` 1, any pilot); the `veteran-contracts` condition is gone. `GoalProgress` gains `marketShipsBought` and `priorityDeliveries` (drops `veteranContracts`). Server: `ships.from_deal` (migration 0009, backfilling each player's first ship), set on the deal's ship; goal progress counts non-deal ships and resolved non-tutorial dispatches whose contract is Priority. Tests: sim (the deal's two ships don't complete goal 3, a bought Lighter does; Standard deliveries don't complete goal 4, a Priority one does), server goals (buying a Lighter; a Standard then a Priority delivery), web goal list ids.

+- [x] **Step 10M.3 — Server: deal creates the Clipper.** `acceptDeal` reads `config.deal` and inserts both deal ships at Earth (Courier, then Clipper, consecutive seeded names, `from_deal`), assigns the avatar to the Courier and the veteran to the Clipper (location follows the ship), sets the 66,600 cr loan. Tests: `deal.test.ts` (two crewed ships at Earth, one bay, the loan; two simultaneous accepts still give two ships, not four; refused and repeated accepts change nothing), `veteran.test.ts` (veteran crewing the Clipper, level 2, Expensive Cargo 1; the Courier and the Clipper dispatched at the same time, the veteran's run paying their profit share).
