feat(editor): add WAUR (Spell Aura Type) — companion to WSEF, CLI flag count breaks 1000

Open replacement for the SpellEffect.EffectAuraType field
meanings used when SpellEffect.Effect=APPLY_AURA. Defines what
each aura-type integer value actually does once an aura is
attached to a unit — PERIODIC_DAMAGE ticks damage every N
seconds, MOD_STAT adds a stat bonus, MOD_INCREASE_SPEED scales
movement, MOD_DAMAGE_PERCENT_DONE scales spell power, etc.

Companion to WSEF — together they cover the full spell-effect
classification space:
  WSEF: outer effect ID — what does the effect DO?
        (APPLY_AURA, SCHOOL_DAMAGE, HEAL, etc)
  WAUR: inner aura type — when WSEF=APPLY_AURA, what KIND
        of aura is applied? (PERIODIC_DAMAGE, MOD_STAT,
        STUN, ROOT, etc)

Nine auraKind values (Periodic / StatMod / DamageMod /
Movement / Visual / Trigger / Resource / Control / Misc)
classify the major behavior families. Periodic auras carry an
updateFrequencyMs (canonical 3s for DoT/HoT, 2s for energize,
1s for fast triggers). Stackable auras carry a maxStackCount.

Cross-references back to WSEF (this catalog is the secondary
classification that WSEF entry id 6 (APPLY_AURA) dispatches
into) and forward to WSPL (spell entries with effect=APPLY_AURA
reference an auraTypeId here).

Three preset emitters: --gen-aur (5 periodic auras with
canonical tick intervals), --gen-aur-stats (5 stat-modifier
auras instantly applied on attach), --gen-aur-movement (4
movement-impairing CC auras typical of crowd-control spells).

Validation enforces name presence, auraKind 0..8, targetingHint
0..3, no duplicate ids; errors on Periodic kind without
updateFrequencyMs (would never tick); warns on:
  - non-Periodic/Trigger kinds with updateFrequencyMs > 0
    (engine ignores tick interval)
  - maxStackCount > 0 with isStackable=false (cap unreachable)

Wired through the cross-format table; WAUR appears automatically
in all 15 cross-format utilities. Format count 82 -> 83;
CLI flag count 996 -> 1001 — broke the 1000-flag mark.
