No email required — players pick male/female/mystery, get assigned
a humorous period-appropriate operator name (e.g. "Dusty Clicksworth",
"Ada Dottsworth", "The Phantom Sender"), can reroll, then hit
"Begin Transmitting!" for instant play. Email/magic link moved to
a collapsible section for cross-device access only.
- server: POST /api/auth/guest creates guest profile + session
- server/db: profiles.email now nullable, is_guest column added,
migration recreates table for existing installs
- client: names.ts with 15 names per gender category
- client: LoginPage redesigned — gender picker → name display → play
- client: useAuth gains setAuth() for direct session injection
- 55 server + 44 client tests pass

Replace random word banks with hand-crafted mnemonic suggestions
for each letter. All phrases are meaningful (e.g. "he has his hat"
for H, "sun set sky" for S, "over only once" for O) and every word
starts with the target letter. Placeholder shows first suggestion.

First word of each suggestion starts with the letter being learned
(e.g. "age WALK" for A). Validation requires at least one word to
start with the target letter. Added O/U/N/D/H words to fill gaps.

- Dot words: ≤3 letters (was ≤2) — two-letter words like "go/it" were too limiting
- Dash words: ≥4 letters (unchanged in practice)
- Added DOT_WORDS and DASH_WORDS banks (~60 and ~200 words)
- suggestPhrases() generates 5 random valid suggestions per letter
- MnemonicBuilder shows clickable suggestion pills; "↻ new" refreshes them
- Selected suggestion highlights in gold; user can still type their own

Use pendingCancel flag (consumed once) to suppress stop-before-play while
allowing subsequent play() calls to proceed normally. Add afterEach timer
cleanup, re-play test, and behavioral assertion for off().
