Reusable port workflow

The source template and complete end-to-end porting instructions live in /Users/jackwallner/cardport. Start with its README and parity contract. The .cardport.json file records public identity values for this port. The parity reference is the original tile-practice app, and the port keeps its runtime, release, website, legal, and screenshot surfaces while replacing tile content with Sheepshead rules and cards.
