feat(content): calling + race blurbs, loaded by ContentDB

Hand-written like items/ — no build-tool namespace needed. Blurbs are content;
mechanics are code, and a test asserts the blurb files carry no hit dice. The
prose is placeholder; swapping it later touches no code, which is what stops the
content BOM from blocking the engine.
