Phase 5 of App.js Modularization (Refs #409)

What

Extract remaining systems and slim app.js to ~200-line orchestrator:

Terrain:

modules/terrain/island.js — Floating island + crystals
modules/terrain/clouds.js — Weather-tethered cloud layer
modules/terrain/stars.js — Star field + constellations (BTC-tethered)

Portals:

modules/portals/portal-system.js — Portal creation, warp, health checks
modules/portals/commit-banners.js — Floating commit banners

Narrative:

modules/narrative/bookshelves.js — Floating bookshelves
modules/narrative/oath.js — Oath display + enter/exit
modules/narrative/chat.js — Chat panel, speech bubbles, NPC dialog

Utils:

modules/utils/perlin.js — Perlin noise generator
modules/utils/geometry.js — Shared geometry helpers
modules/utils/canvas-utils.js — Canvas texture creation helpers

Final State of app.js

// app.js — Thin Orchestrator (~200 lines)
import { initScene } from './modules/core/scene.js';
import { createTicker } from './modules/core/ticker.js';
import { THEME } from './modules/core/theme.js';
import { createState } from './modules/core/state.js';
// ... all module imports ...

const state = createState();
const { scene, camera, renderer } = initScene();
const ticker = createTicker(renderer, scene, camera);

// Init all modules
for (const mod of allModules) {
  mod.init(scene, state, THEME);
  ticker.subscribe(mod.update);
}

ticker.start();

Acceptance Criteria

All remaining code extracted from app.js
app.js is ≤200 lines
Every module follows the init/update/dispose contract
node --check app.js passes
No visual regressions
Multi-agent ready: any module can be edited independently

Depends on: Phase 4 (effects/)

Closed per direction shift (#542). Reason: Modularization phase 5 — modularizing deleted code.

The Nexus has three jobs: Heartbeat, Harness, Portal Interface. This issue doesn't serve any of them.
