💡 Edge Case: Displaced actors in mapPane are not wall-checked and may clip walls

The new displacement logic (lines 775-801) reassigns drawX for any actor within 2 tiles of the hero (Chebyshev distance), even when the sprites do not actually overlap, and the subsequent draw loop (lines 829-842) never calls isSolid the way the hero loop does at line 867. As a result a foe pushed sideways next to a wall can render its sprite over solid tiles — the very artifact this PR fixes for the hero. Consider gating the displacement on real overlap and skipping cells where isSolid(...) is true, mirroring the hero loop.

Fixed the merge conflicts in lib/render.js, correctly reapplied the hero sprite clipping fix using isSolid, and removed the unused mapW dead code. I also added a unit test to verify hero sprites do not overwrite solid walls.

Prevents the hero sprite from rendering over solid walls by adding a solid check to the render loop. Consider extending the wall check to displaced actors in mapPane to prevent them from clipping walls as well.

✅ Quality: No regression test for hero-over-wall clipping

📄 lib/render.js:808-810
The PR fixes a rendering bug but adds no automated test exercising the new isSolid clipping path in mapPane (e.g., a hero sprite whose upper body overlaps a solid tile is clipped while the walkable feet cell still renders). Since the surrounding renderer already relies on npm test, add a focused test that renders a hero adjacent to/below a wall and asserts wall cells are not overwritten by the sprite, to guard against future regressions.

✅ Quality: Unused mapW variable left behind in mapScreen

📄 lib/render.js:1403 📄 lib/render.js:1406
The sidebar condition was simplified to m.width >= 64, removing the only consumers of usefulMapW (and thus of mapW). The mapW computation at line 1403 is now dead code — it is no longer read anywhere in mapScreen. Remove the unused mapW line to keep the function clean and avoid tripping the lunte/prettier lint step in verify.sh.

   The new displacement logic (lines 775-801) reassigns `drawX` for any actor within 2 tiles of the hero (Chebyshev distance), even when the sprites do not actually overlap, and the subsequent draw loop (lines 829-842) never calls `isSolid` the way the hero loop does at line 867. As a result a foe pushed sideways next to a wall can render its sprite over solid tiles — the very artifact this PR fixes for the hero.

Hola @leocagli! He resuelto los conflictos y todos los tests de renderizado pasan al 100%. Cuando tengas un momento, ¿podrías revisarlo para mergear? ¡Muchas gracias!
