jheapsandClaude Opus 5 42b9e83e8f Don't deal the hand when the dealer names a blind
The seat menu's "Make small blind" / "Make big blind" / "Blinds follow the
button again" all re-posted the blinds whenever `Betting.onlyBlindsIn(state)`
was true. That condition means "nothing has happened in this hand except the
blinds" — which is true of a hand one second old and equally true of a table
sitting in setup with no cards out and nothing committed.

So naming a blind before the deal ran repostBlinds -> beginHand: betting
opened, two stacks docked, the action bar up and waiting on the seat after the
big blind. The dealer had said where the blinds go and the tool heard "deal".

Betting.blindsArePosted() is the question these three actually wanted — the
blinds are down only once a hand is open — and it's the guard makeDealer was
already using by hand. Before the deal, naming a blind now moves a badge and
nothing else; the toast says "Dee has the small blind next hand." rather than
claiming she posted it. Mid-hand behaviour is unchanged: chips come back and
go in again from the new positions, and the chip count stays straight.
