Created command_logic/play_context.py with locked_play async context manager. Wraps checks_log_interaction() and guarantees lock release on exception, early return, or normal exit. Fixed production bug where log_chaos, log_sac_bunt, and log_stealing left locks permanently stuck due to early returns after lock acquisition. Migrated all 18 locking commands in cogs/gameplay.py. Removed double-locking in end_game_command. Special handling for undo_play (sets original_play.locked=False to prevent committing deleted row).
