PF1e CRB 'Big and Little Creatures in Combat': a creature's natural
reach is a disk (a Large creature still threatens and strikes adjacent
squares), while a reach weapon doubles the wielder's natural reach but
'can't strike at their natural reach or less' (a ring whose dead zone is
the natural reach). The engine keyed the ring off reach_ft > 5, so
reach-10 natural attacks (giant belostomatid bite/claw, mounted
hooves) wrongly got a 5-ft dead zone.
AttackSpec gains reach_weapon (parsed from the combatant JSON); the
disk-vs-ring rule is centralized in _melee_reach_zone_cells and applied
consistently to weapon selection, melee usability, threatened squares
and charge end placement. Esha's Lance is the only reach weapon in the
shipped data; Large natural attackers keep the default (disk).

Rename _threatened_squares -> threatened_squares and
_enemies_threatening -> enemies_threatening (public read-only API for a
future LLM policy), and add reachable_ft(state, budget) and
movement_cost_ft(state, target) accessors returning movement costs in
feet. Pure exposure: no behavior change, resolution engine untouched,
goldens bit-identical.
