fix(rules): avoid the firing-into-melee penalty at 10 feet

Browse Source 
SRD 'Attack - Shooting or Throwing into a Melee': a target at least 10 ft from the nearest friendly character lets you avoid the -4 penalty entirely (0, not -2). The -2 is reserved for targets two size categories larger than the engaged friendlies (0 at three+), which is not modeled (documented). Golden transcript unaffected (shot still misses).

Ultraworked with [Sisyphus](https://github.com/code-yeongyu/oh-my-openagent)
