feat: add gomoku AI with easy/medium/hard difficulty and tests

Port GomokuAI.java to Go with three difficulty levels:
- Easy: uniform random (seeded RNG for determinism)
- Medium: immediate win/block heuristic from caro
- Hard: true minimax depth-3 with alpha-beta pruning

evaluatePosition uses caro threat-pattern weights (open-four=100000,
closed-four=10000, open-three=1000, etc.) as leaf evaluator.
candidateMoves limits branching to radius-2 Chebyshev neighbours.
Benchmark: ~71µs/move on 30-stone mid-game board (budget: <1s).
