🎨 hand-tuned skin home keys — 14 deliberate, distinct moods

Browse Source 
Replace the auto-derived skin scale (which gave 3× C wholetone and a sparse
hirajoshi default) with a curated SKIN_HOME map — a considered {root,scale} per
cosmology, every pair unique so turning the wheel always changes the key.
Verified: 14/14 distinct. Default (chakra) is now warm C minor pentatonic.

chakra C min-pent · planes A lydian · tree D minor · lodge G major ·
ladder E phrygian · yggdrasil F# minor · lataif B dorian · wuxing F# pentatonic ·
tarot A minor · zodiac C mixolydian · futhark G dorian · wheelyear F major ·
artist C wholetone · bagua E min-pent. (Fallback to derived scale for any future skin.)
