fix(quality): support any number of rating groups

`quality()` was two-group-only in three separate ways, and
`History::predict_quality` inherited all of them.

- The contrast-matrix column counter tracked two positions with two
  variables that only agree on the first row, so three or more groups wrote
  past the end of the row and panicked with an out-of-bounds index. The
  negative block always begins immediately after the positive one, so the
  second counter is unnecessary.
- `Matrix::inverse` was implemented only for the 1x1 case and otherwise
  `panic!("eh, okey")`. It now uses LU decomposition with partial pivoting,
  which also replaces the recursive cofactor `determinant` — that was O(n!)
  and allocated a `Vec` per minor, so a 10-team match needed 362,880 terms.
- Degenerate inputs (zero groups, one group, empty groups) underflowed or
  produced NaN. They now assert with a message naming the requirement.

`Matrix` also gains dimension checks on multiply/add and bounds checks on
indexing, and loses the now-unused `adjugate`/`minor` cofactor path.

The two-group golden is unchanged. N-group behaviour is covered by
invariants — permutation invariance, and quality falling as a skill gap
widens — since no reference values were available to compare against; the
sublee/trueskill cross-check remains open.
