feat(pipeline): add WTAX (Wowee Taxi catalog) format

Browse source 
Novel open replacement for Blizzard's TaxiNodes.dbc +
TaxiPath.dbc + TaxiPathNode.dbc. The 24th open format
added to the editor.

Defines the flight-master network: a set of named nodes
(positions on the world map) plus the paths between them
(sequences of waypoints with per-segment delay and a
per-path gold cost). The same file holds both node and
path lists — flat arrays keyed by id, with intra-format
references from path.fromNodeId / toNodeId to node.nodeId.

Cross-references:
  WCRT.entry (with FlightMaster npcFlag) ~= WTAX.nodeId
                                            (matched by world
                                             position; flight
                                             master NPCs stand
                                             at their nodes)
  WTAX.path.fromNodeId / toNodeId -> WTAX.entry.nodeId
                                     (intra-format graph)

Format:
  • magic "WTAX", version 1, little-endian
  • nodes (each): nodeId / mapId / name / iconPath /
    position / faction restrictions
  • paths (each): pathId / from+toNodeId / moneyCostCopper /
    waypoints[] each with position + per-waypoint delaySec

API: WoweeTaxiLoader::save / load / exists +
WoweeTaxi::findNode / findPath / findPathBetween.

Three preset emitters showcase different graph shapes:
  • makeStarter  — 2 nodes + 2 paths (round-trip)
  • makeRegion   — 4 nodes at a 500m square + 4-path
                    directed ring (NW->NE->SE->SW->NW)
  • makeContinent — 6 nodes hub-spoke + 3 perimeter
                     shortcuts; intermediate waypoints
                     climb to altitude 120m for visual
                     arc effect

CLI added (5 flags, 564 documented total now):
  --gen-taxi / --gen-taxi-region / --gen-taxi-continent
  --info-wtax / --validate-wtax

Validator catches: nodeId/pathId=0 + duplicates, empty node
name, non-finite positions, fromNodeId == toNodeId
(self-loop path), path references to non-existent nodes
(intra-format cross-reference resolution), negative
waypoint delays.
