Document the rig bindings on the tone_changes wire message

CHANGELOG entry for the core rig reader, plus the WS protocol table in
CLAUDE.md, which described `tone_changes` as carrying only base + name.

While in that row: its time key was documented as `time`, but every
producer emits `t` — both the sloppak builder and the legacy XML path.
The 3D highway already carries a comment warning readers about exactly
this discrepancy. Corrected here rather than left sitting next to the
newly-added keys, where a reader would reasonably assume both were
equally reliable.

 ### Added
+- **Core reader for source rigs (feedpak 1.18.0).** A pack can declare what a
+  MIDI part should sound like by binding a rig; core now reads that binding and
+  hands it to the client instead of dropping it. Three parts: the
+  `tone_changes` WS message carries the pack's rig bindings (`base_rig`, and
+  `rig` per change) alongside the tone names it already sent; the manifest
+  `rigs:` key loads the pack's rig library (`rigs.json`, spec §7.9) verbatim;
+  and the binding precedence is resolved per spec §5.1/§5.2 — a manifest
+  arrangement entry's `tones` replaces the arrangement JSON's **wholesale**
+  (no field-level merge), while top-level `drum_tones` binds the primary drum
+  part as the fallback a `type: drums` entry's own `tones` outranks. Core
+  deliberately stops there: it does not select a realization or apply the
+  `intent.gm` floor, which belong to whatever actually voices the part. Packs
+  that bind no rig produce a byte-identical `tone_changes` payload, so existing
+  consumers are unaffected.

-## Preview on Hover
-
-The Folder Library does **not** implement hover-preview itself — the `song_preview` plugin does, for the whole app. Its hover loop finds song elements by the selector `#v3-songs [data-fn]` (with a `[data-v3-play]` playable surface) and its `MutationObserver` watches the `#v3-songs` subtree — and the folder view (`#lib-folder-tree`) renders **inside** `#v3-songs`. So all folder_library has to do is give each card/row the standard markup:
-
-- **`_songCard`** — `card.dataset.fn = song.filename` (raw filename) + `data-v3-play` on the art wrap (the surface `song_preview` overlays its indicator on).
-- **`_songRow`** — `row.dataset.fn = song.filename` + `data-v3-play` on the thumb.
-
-`song_preview` then previews folder view exactly like the grid/list — same audio (its `/audio` endpoint), same availability/404 handling, same indicator — with **zero preview code here**. If you change the card/row structure, keep `data-fn` (raw, not URL-encoded) and a `[data-v3-play]` descendant, or `song_preview` will stop recognising the cards.

 ## Roadmap
 
-Implemented since the original release: **nested subfolders** (recursive tree + create-inside-folder), drag-and-drop, sort, advanced filtering, server-side tree filtering synced to the host library, and the warm metadata cache. Hover-preview is provided by the `song_preview` plugin via the `data-fn` markup above (not implemented here).

 - **Bulk move** — multi-select songs and move them all at once.
 - **Thumbnail performance** — faster loading and smoother scrolling with large libraries.
 - **Adjustable thumbnail/row sizes** — user-resizable song cards and list rows.

+"""Loader coverage for the manifest-vs-in-JSON `tones` precedence cascade
+(feedpak 1.18.0, spec §5.1 / §5.2).
+
+Two rules, both about *which* sound binding wins, neither about interpreting it:
+
+  - A manifest arrangement entry's `tones` replaces the arrangement JSON's
+    `tones` **WHOLESALE** — no field-level merge. A half-merged block (this
+    source's `base` with that source's `changes`) would be a sound nobody
+    authored, so the two never blend.
+  - Top-level `drum_tones` binds the song-level (primary) drum part and is the
+    fallback; a `type: drums` entry's own `tones` takes precedence, and a
+    Reader MUST NOT apply both to the same part.
