Fr0zkaandClaude Opus 5.5 70c37aaab3 unreal: startup boost spans epoch churn; empty collision tiles stay classified (L92) ...

- Startup apply boost (24 meshes / 14 ms) now ends on initial LOD0-2 + collision readiness or
  the 30 s timeout, not on the first desired-epoch change: FI LOD0-2 settled 3.49 -> 3.40 s.
- Known-empty LOD0 collision classifications persist across unloads within a modification epoch
  and are invalidated on edits; commandlet readiness accepts CollisionNotRequired tiles. The 30 m/s
  movement trace now passes (no re-requests of the 4 support tiles).
- Startup trace events: SerializeResolvedWorld ~466 ms synchronous in BeginPlay (unchanged);
  SW bReady at 2.74 s vs FI 0.75 s (to investigate). Redundant second parse removed.
- Core output identical. Fast tier PASS; Linux UE builds. R42 notes attached.
