Add inline comments across client and server codebase

Full-codebase commenting pass focused on the tricky, fragile, and
non-obvious spots: animation coordination flags in app.js, AI decision
safety checks in ai.py, scoring evaluation order in game.py, animation
engine magic numbers in card-animations.js, and server infrastructure
coupling in main.py/handlers.py/room.py. No logic changes.
