/**
 * EngineSemantic — registry de canales perceptivos + dispatch.
 *
 * El engine no conoce DOM, ni hold, ni atributos de estado. Su trabajo es:
 *
 *   1. Asignar un id estable a cada ocurrencia.
 *   2. Ejecutar `channel.prepare(...)` antes de la cascade para que los
 *      canales publiquen su superficie temporal si la necesitan.
 *   3. Resolver la `EffectiveSignature` con las 5 capas de cascade.
 *   4. Despachar a cada canal registrado.
 *   5. Esperar al canal visual y limpiar los handles de preparación.
 *
 * Override layers (ver `resolver.ts`):
 *   1. family base                  — SEMA_MAP.families
 *   1.5 the SOUND                   — the catalogue name selected by the morfo
 *                                     event and the cascade (sound-names.ts),
 *                                     applied BEFORE the intent so the
 *                                     evaluative profile always survives it
 *   2. intent deltas                — SEMA_MAP.intents (any family with intent)
 *   3. morfo per-event              — signal.overrides + signal.channels
 *   4. runtime path overrides       — engineOpts.overrides.runtime
 *                                     (applied to map at construction)
 *   5a. pack cascade                — engineOpts.components (per-component
 *                                     packs, prepended)
 *   5b. app cascade                 — engineOpts.overrides.cascade
 *                                     (app-level rules appended; win on tie)
