docs: add alpha production readiness plan

[JOY (JOY)]

Summary

• Add alpha production backlog with milestone order A0-A7, epic-level build scope, dependency order, hard blockers, and issue creation guide.
• Add alpha acceptance matrix with readiness criteria, Play Mode smoke scripts, cut rules, review gates, and evidence pack.
• Add alpha content and copy pack with UI labels, NPC dialogue, mission copy, outcome copy, relationship reactions, and system messages.
• Wire the production readiness docs into the alpha GDD, main GDD, vertical slice spec, systems index, GitBook summary, roadmap, and changelog.

Local review

• Local code-review fallback: APPROVED for docs-only change.
• ADR/Hard Rule check: no backend/auth stack change, no Unity scene or asset mutation, no client-owned reward path, no LLM authority expansion, no cultivation/Nibirium/gacha/body-fusion scope creep.

Verification

• npx markdownlint-cli2 "docs/design/26-alpha-game-design-document.md" "docs/design/27-alpha-level-design.md" "docs/design/28-character-body-and-roster-design.md" "docs/design/29-alpha-questline-and-encounter-design.md" "docs/design/30-alpha-ux-flow.md" "docs/design/31-alpha-economy-balance-and-playtest-plan.md" "docs/design/32-alpha-art-audio-and-content-direction.md" "docs/design/33-alpha-production-backlog.md" "docs/design/34-alpha-acceptance-matrix.md" "docs/design/35-alpha-content-and-copy-pack.md" "docs/design/12-game-design-document.md" "docs/design/03-systems-index.md" "docs/design/02-vertical-slice-spec.md" "docs/SUMMARY.md" "ROADMAP.md" "CHANGELOG.md"
• Local markdown link resolver: all local markdown links resolve.
• Em-dash scan: clean.
• git diff --check

Require real body-death flow in acceptance checks

Do not allow a mocked death state to satisfy this row, because the vertical slice requires actual death -> reinhabitation behavior (including cost/carryover handling) as a core loop feature. Keeping mocked death state as an acceptable verification path can mark alpha as ready even when the real server-authoritative death transition is unimplemented, which creates a false readiness signal and pushes a high-risk integration gap into later milestones.
