fix(rendering): reduce terrain chunk edge seams (#56)

Browse source 
Two sources of visible chunk-boundary squares:

1. Derivative-based bump mapping (bumpStrength=9) used dFdx/dFdy which
   are invalid across draw-call boundaries, producing strong normal
   discontinuities at every chunk edge.  Fade bump to zero near chunk
   edges using LayerUV as the chunk-space distance metric.

2. sampleAlpha used an abrupt step() to switch between point-sampled
   and 4-tap-blurred alpha, creating a visible ring 2 texels from each
   chunk edge.  Replace with smoothstep transition and a 5-tap average
   that includes the center sample.
