Add GameEngine orchestrator with full game lifecycle support

Implements the main public API for the core game engine:
- create_game(): deck validation, shuffling, dealing hands
- execute_action(): validates and executes all 11 action types
- start_turn()/end_turn(): turn management integration
- get_visible_state(): hidden info filtering for clients
- handle_timeout(): timeout handling for turn limits

Integrates turn_manager, rules_validator, win_conditions, and
visibility filter into a cohesive orchestration layer.

22 integration tests covering game creation, action execution,
visibility filtering, and error handling.

711 tests passing (29/32 tasks complete)

+"""Main GameEngine orchestrator for the Mantimon TCG game engine.
+
+This module provides the GameEngine class, which is the primary public API
+for all game operations. It orchestrates:
+    - Game creation and initialization
+    - Action validation and execution
+    - Turn and phase management
+    - Win condition checking
+    - Visibility filtering for clients
+
+The GameEngine is designed to be the single entry point for game operations,
