ctan a6cc5aef36 feat(rules): scale spell damage with caster level
DamageEffect gains optional scaling (1dX per N levels, capped) and scaling_flat (+X per N levels, capped) specs; effective_formula resolves them against the caster's level at cast time, so scaled dice flow through crits, energy resistance and metamagic like the base formula (CRB Magic - Caster Level). Loader rejects mismatched die types. Data: Fireball/Lightning Bolt 1d6/lvl max 10d6, Burning Hands 1d4/lvl max 5d4, Shocking Grasp 1d6/lvl max 5d6, Inflict Light Wounds +1/lvl max +5 (SRD-verified). Cure Light Wounds stays flat: its golden transcript pins 1d8+1 and HealEffect scaling is out of scope.
