Add Eternal Domination grid

Introduce a new Miscellany interactive "Eternal Domination on a Grid" implementing a 12x10 grid m-eternal domination defense, initial guard layout from the paper, and attack/defense mechanics. Adds page and routing integration, UI scaffolding, and minimal visuals to reflect the figure-10 strategy.

<strong>Dominating Set:</strong> A subset S of vertices in a graph G such that
every vertex not in S has a neighbor in S. Think of guards placed at certain
vertices that can "watch" their neighbors.
</p>
<p>
<strong>m-Eternal Domination:</strong> A two-player game where the defender
places guards on vertices, and the attacker repeatedly attacks unguarded vertices.
The defender responds by moving guards (all can move simultaneously, but only to
adjacent vertices) such that one guard ends on the attacked vertex and the guards
still form a dominating set.
</p>
<p>
<strong>The Challenge:</strong> The defender wins if they can maintain a dominating
set forever against any attack sequence. The m-eternal domination number γ(G) is
the minimum number of guards needed to win.

<li><strong>Border guards:</strong> All vertices on the border (rows 0, 1, 8, 9 and
columns 0, 11) are always guarded, forming a protective cycle C.</li>
<li><strong>Interior guards:</strong> Placed in a pattern that ensures every interior
vertex is dominated by exactly one guard.</li>

the attack, potentially pushing a guard to the border. Border guards shift along
