fix(dice): straight-down camera so the rolled face is unambiguous#161
Conversation
The oblique camera (position [0,1.4,0.8], default look-at) made the top face of a settled icosahedron indistinguishable from its neighbours, which forced the floating-callout overlay to disagree with what the player saw on the die. Moving the camera straight down (90° / position [0,2.4,0]) puts the up-face flat to the viewer so the read is unambiguous. Playtest 2026-04-24.

Summary
The oblique dice camera made the top face of a settled icosahedron indistinguishable from its neighbours. The floating callout could disagree with what the player saw on the die. Moving the camera straight down (90°, position `[0, 2.4, 0]`, rotation `[-π/2, 0, 0]`) puts the up-face flat to the viewer so the read is unambiguous.
