ScottW514 68e9d3fb8e laser_stream_test: the rolloff reference pins the bench-default curve's rendering of S300 end to end
Rule 19 names laser_arm_test.c case P as the proof of the dose curve's
mapping. Case P calls curveComputeValue directly and reads its counts;
it does not reach the wiring from the S word to the stream:
spindleConfig installing the curve as the PWM compute hook, and the
level the hook returns riding the dither into FIRE density. A driver
that left the hook uninstalled passes case P and renders every cut
through the identity mapping, a different delivered dose at every S.

The rolloff reference session (rule 23) already runs one M4 line at
S300 under the shipped curve and reads its cruise density, to compare
against the two-cut run. It now also holds that density to the curve's
own point: 30 percent light through the bench-default curve lands
between its (45 percent density, 21 percent light) and (60, 37)
points, 53.44 percent density, level 68 of 127, density 0.535, held
to 0.02. The expectation is mirrored next to the curved configuration
the way the floor is, so a change to the curve changes it. The
header's rule 19 names the point. No session is added, and no session's
configuration changes.

Proof: the host test grblHAL-glowforge CI runs (the step "Laser stream
emission rules", python3 forgefirm/scripts/bench/laser_stream_test.py
build/grblHAL_glowforge) against the native null-sink build of the
driver at badc832 (-DGFMCODE_WAIT_S=5.0): the rolloff reference cruise
renders 0.5355 against the expected 0.5354, and the whole harness
passes, every session. Negative control, through a scratch copy of the
harness: the same cut with laser_dose_curve = off renders 0.3625 (the
identity mapping, level 46 through the 10 percent floor), 0.17 from
the point, and fails the assertion.

Acceptance: none; the harness is grblHAL's CI's, and src/** of
grblhal-glowforge keeps its covers.
