feat(num): N3 selectable scale-floor clamp mode (HardJava | SmoothBarrier)
The hyper-ideal vertex scale b is floored to keep the geometry valid. The original clamp `b<0 → 0.01` mirrors the Java oracle but is only C⁰ (in fact value-discontinuous at b=0): a Newton step crossing the feasibility boundary hits a kink that can stall convergence (numerical-stability audit N3). Rather than replace the Java-faithful behaviour (which would break the golden parity tests), make the floor a selectable mode so BOTH the Java standpoint and the clean mathematics are available: - HyperIdealScaleClamp::HardJava (DEFAULT) — the original snap, bit-for-bit faithful to HyperIdealFunctional.java → all parity tests unchanged. - HyperIdealScaleClamp::SmoothBarrier — C¹ softplus floor b ↦ floor + softplus_β(b−floor), β = HYPER_IDEAL_SCALE_SHARPNESS (=100); ≈ identity away from the floor, smooth across b=0. Opt-in. clamp_hyper_ideal_scale centralises the logic (also folds in the N4 nachzügler: compute_face_angles used a bare 0.01). The mode threads with a defaulted trailing parameter through compute_face_angles, face_angles_from_local_dofs, evaluate_hyper_ideal, the four hyper_ideal_hessian* variants and newton_hyper_ideal — so every existing call site keeps HardJava behaviour. Tests (+4): clamp-function C¹/floor/identity contract, mode-equivalence away from the boundary, and end-to-end SmoothBarrier convergence to the same Java golden vector (LawsonHyperIdeal). 296/296 CGAL tests pass.
