feat(editor): island terrain generator with beach falloff

- Island Generator: creates raised center terrain dropping to edges
  with configurable center height and edge drop depth
- Flat interior plateau → gradual beach slope → steep underwater drop
- Preserves existing noise detail at 30% blend for natural variation
- Add water around the island for instant ocean environment
- Workflow: New Terrain → Island → Noise → Smooth → Auto-paint
