chore(release): v0.10.0

Promote CHANGELOG Unreleased → 0.10.0 (the schema-driven Build page for world
objects, #11) and bump wally.toml + SurvivorCore.VERSION.

Demo: new demo/server/Stage.luau — one switch for what the demo places in the
world (gather field + quest post, mobs, starting inventory, hand-test props).
The test-station prop rows now default OFF: they're scaffolding for working ON
the engine and crowded the spawn area for everyone else.

Collateral: the Build demo video on the docs Demos line and as an 8th site
video tile; the landing page's Studio card now tells the Build story; version
surfaces bumped across site, README and getting-started.

+### Changed
+- **Demo: one switch for what the world contains** — `demo/server/Stage.luau` toggles the gather
+  field + quest post, the mobs, the starting inventory and the hand-test prop rows independently.
+  The **test stations now default OFF**: that labelled row of DAMAGE / FEED / POISON / BLEED
+  prompts (plus the item pickups) is scaffolding for working *on* the engine, and it crowded the
+  spawn area for everyone else. Flip any flag on to get that piece back; turn them all off for a
+  clean stage when filming or when building your own world on the engine. Content *definitions*
+  register regardless, so the admin plugin's pickers still list the demo's items and mobs.
