CTW-Native v0.2.0

• Streets feel alive: pedestrians walk the sidewalks in their original outfits, dive clear of speeding cars, and traffic stops for them.
• Smashed bins burst rubbish, and a knocked-over bin spills it as it rolls.
• The city has sound: street ambience, rain and airport hum, plus the missing smash sounds.
• The original radio: press Tab in a car for the station carousel, live equaliser, favourites and volume. The game pauses, like the original.
• Optional on-foot third-person view in the bundled Enhancements mod (V), plus a tidier mod menu (F4) with search and a bigger Cheat Example.

CTW-Native v0.1.1

• Include the current game changes: vehicle physics, radio and audio fixes, and updated game tables.
• Extract the radio mappings and hospital restart points at runtime, matching the Python setup and current game.
• Rebuild the game and mod kit before packaging the Porter, so an older local executable cannot silently ship.
• Stop release builds with an incomplete game payload.
• Fix the Rust 1.98 Clippy failures and show the Windows checks as separate steps. Cache Rust dependencies
  after failed checks so reruns do not start from scratch.
