akgl_rectangle_points, akgl_collide_point_rectangle, akgl_Point and
akgl_RectanglePoints go. They were the intermediate form of an implementation
that changed: akgl_collide_rectangles was eight corner-containment tests built on
them, and it has been four span comparisons since the cross-case fix. Nothing
outside tests/ called either function, and a point-in-rectangle test is four
comparisons a caller can write without a struct conversion in front of them.

akgl_collide_rectangles stays. It has two correct callers in the sidescroller
asking a game-level overlap question -- a coin, a hazard, from an updatefunc --
where a bool is the whole answer and a proxy plus a narrowphase call would be
computing a normal nothing reads. TODO.md records the split rather than leaving
it to be rediscovered.

Public API removal, so 194 exported akgl_ symbols against 196, and the manual's
counts move with them. The perf suite loses its rectangle_points row; the
all-pairs sweep stays as the control it is now labelled, and PERFORMANCE.md says
what 0.8.0 measured against it -- 188.5 us for 32,640 pairs at 256 actors, where
a whole step with collision attached is 54.1 us doing strictly more.

35a58670d0 Document collision, and correct what it made false elsewhere
The new chapter 15 covers the opt-in setup, where resolution runs in the step
and why it runs after the move, shapes and the z-extrusion trap, the asymmetric
masks and the defaults that matter more than the mechanism, tiles as a source
rather than proxies, the response hook and the three ways it is easy to write
wrongly, sensors, the four queries, both partitioners, and what is still not
implemented.

Collision falsified claims in eight other chapters. The physics chapter said
"There is no collision detection, at all" and that collide always raises
AKERR_API; actors had six behaviour hooks; the heap had five pools and four
non-claiming acquires; the status band held five codes; and the design
philosophy had exactly two pluggable subsystems. The appendix gains a
collision.h status section, the three new pool ceilings and a table of the
collision constants that are deliberately not in a public header.

Also fixes chapter labels the renumbering commit left pointing at their old
numbers -- "18. Utilities" linked to 19-utilities.md.

bace818998 Renumber chapters 15 to 21 up by one, to open a slot for collision
A pure rename plus link rewrite and nothing else. Collision is a pluggable
subsystem with two implementations, shapes, a response hook and a tile binding;
that is a chapter, and burying it inside the physics chapter is the shape this
manual otherwise avoids -- rendering and drawing are 8 and 9, spritesheets and
characters and actors are 10, 11 and 12.

Kept separate from writing the chapter because **nothing validates a
cross-reference target.** The example harness reads fenced blocks; it does not
follow links. A rename mixed into five hundred lines of new prose is not
reviewable, and a broken link would land silently. As its own commit it is
reviewable as a rename, and a grep for dangling `](NN-` targets is clean.
