zwitschi ca73563060 test(review): ground-level cameras, and a null result that locates the float ...

Two cameras were added at pavement height - one on the feet, one on the wheels - because the
wide shots cannot settle whether anything touches the surface.

The feet shot settled it, and not the way I expected. Lowering the player start from 455 to 395
changed NOTHING in the capture: same framing, same float. The capsule falls onto the collider and
always rests at Z 456 with its feet at 369, while the rendered pavement is about a metre lower.

So the float is not a spawn-height problem, and no amount of tuning player_z will fix it: the
sidewalk's collision extends above its visible top, and the player stands on an invisible ledge.
The earlier 'top surface under player: Z 366' measurement was not wrong - it was measuring the
collider, which is the thing that is in the wrong place.

Next: measure the sidewalk mesh's rendered top against its collider and fix the asset, not the
spawn.

Also pulled the wheel camera back; it had been inside the bodywork.
