feat(euclidean): block-FD edge-DOF Hessian → cyclic Newton + Java convergence oracle

Implements the edge-DOF (cyclic) Euclidean Hessian, unblocking the full cyclic
Newton solve, and enables the Java EuclideanCyclicConvergenceTest cross-validation.

- euclidean_hessian.hpp: `euclidean_hessian_block_fd` / `_sym` — per-face 6×6
  block FD over (u1,u2,u3,λ12,λ23,λ31), mirroring hyper_ideal_hessian_block_fd.
  Per-face outputs carry the gradient signs (−α vertex, +α_opp edge), so the
  result equals ∂G/∂x by construction (locality lemma). Analytic vertex-only
  cotangent Hessian unchanged (still used for vertex-only layouts).
- newton_solver.hpp: newton_euclidean routes cyclic layouts (edge DOFs present)
  through the block-FD Hessian; vertex-only path unchanged.
- tests:
  * CyclicCircularEdge_CatHead_JavaXVal (now GREEN) — prescribe φ=π−0.1 on one
    interior edge, solve, assert realised α_opp+α_opp = π−0.1 @1e-9.
  * CyclicCircularEdge_PhiEntersGradient_CatHead — solver-free φ-wiring check.
  * CyclicHessian_BlockFD_MatchesGradientFD_Tetrahedron — Hessian correctness.

243/243 cgal tests pass; vertex-only Euclidean Newton unaffected.

### Build-verification finding (2026-05-29) — Tier 1 cyclic is blocked
### Build-verification finding (2026-05-29) → resolved (2026-05-30)
Attempting the Tier-1 `EuclideanCyclicConvergenceTest` port **build-verified** a
blocker: `newton_euclidean` calls `euclidean_hessian`, which throws
*"edge DOFs are not supported (only the vertex-block cotangent Laplacian is
implemented)"*. The cyclic functional needs **vertex + edge** DOFs, so the full
Newton solve is **not yet possible** in C++ — the *gradient* supports edge DOFs,
the *analytic Hessian* does not. (This is also why PR #27 cross-validated only
the cyclic *evaluation*, never a solve.)
blocker first: `newton_euclidean` `euclidean_hessian` threw *"edge DOFs are
not supported"*. The cyclic functional needs **vertex + edge** DOFs (the
*gradient* supported them; the *analytic cotangent Hessian* did not). That is
why PR #27 cross-validated only the cyclic *evaluation*, never a solve.
**Landed in this PR instead** (`test_euclidean_functional.cpp`):
-`CyclicCircularEdge_PhiEntersGradient_CatHead` (**GREEN**) — solver-free
cross-validation that the circular-edge φ target enters the cyclic gradient
exactly (`ΔG_e = Δφ_e` at 1e-12, no other component moves). This is the
evaluation-level prerequisite of the convergence oracle.
- ⏸️ `DISABLED_CyclicCircularEdge_CatHead_JavaXVal` — the full Java convergence
assertion (`α_opp+α_opp = π0.1`), kept in-code with the golden semantics; it
auto-activates (drop `DISABLED_`) once the edge-DOF Hessian lands.
**Resolved (2026-05-30):** implemented a **block-FD edge-DOF Euclidean Hessian**
(`euclidean_hessian_block_fd` / `_sym` in `euclidean_hessian.hpp`, mirroring
`hyper_ideal_hessian_block_fd`); `newton_euclidean` now routes cyclic layouts
(edge DOFs present) through it, vertex-only layouts still use the analytic
cotangent Laplacian.
**New prerequisite for Tier-1 cyclic:** an **edge-DOF Euclidean Hessian** (the
cyclic Hessian over vertex + edge variables, cf. Java `getNonZeroPattern`). Spherical
convergence (Tier-1 #2) turned out to be **already covered** by
`test_newton_solver` (`Spherical_ConvergesFromPerturbation` et al. on the
spherical tetrahedron), and `make_octahedron_face()` is a single face, not a
closed octahedron — so Tier-1 #2 adds little. → the next genuinely-new
cross-validation target is **Tier 2 (Wente uniformization XML)** or implementing
the edge-DOF Hessian to unblock the cyclic convergence oracle.
**Landed (`test_euclidean_functional.cpp`, all GREEN, 243/243 cgal tests pass):**
-`CyclicCircularEdge_PhiEntersGradient_CatHead` — solver-free check that the
circular-edge φ enters the gradient exactly (`ΔG_e = Δφ_e` @1e-12).
-`CyclicCircularEdge_CatHead_JavaXVal` — **the full Java convergence
oracle**: prescribe φ = π0.1 on one interior ("circular") edge of cathead,
solve the cyclic Newton, assert the realised `α_opp+α_opp = π0.1` @1e-9.
-`CyclicHessian_BlockFD_MatchesGradientFD_Tetrahedron` — the block-FD edge-DOF
Hessian matches the column-wise gradient FD on the full cyclic layout.
> DOF note: only the **single** circular edge gets an edge DOF (as in Java's

> u_i+u_j (a V-dim null space) and stalls Newton.
Spherical convergence (Tier-1 #2) was found **already covered** by
`test_newton_solver` (`Spherical_ConvergesFromPerturbation` et al.), and
`make_octahedron_face()` is a single face, not a closed octahedron — so it adds
little. → next genuinely-new target: **Tier 2 (Wente uniformization XML)**. A
full *analytic* edge-DOF Hessian (vs the current block-FD) remains a future
optimisation.
