`background Foo @nametable("file.png")` previously decoded the PNG
into a tile-index table and an attribute table but left CHR
generation to the user — they had to supply matching tiles via a
separate `sprite Tileset @chr(...)` declaration in the same
deduplication order, which was both error-prone and the main thing
keeping the shortcut form from being a one-liner.
The CHR pipeline now closes the gap. `png_to_nametable_with_chr`
returns a `PngNametable` carrying the tile-index table, the
attribute table, *and* a per-tile CHR blob encoded with the same
brightness-bucketing `png_to_chr` already uses for sprites. The
resolver passes `next_sprite_tile` (computed from the resolved
sprite list) so each background's CHR allocation slots in
immediately after the sprite range, and rewrites the nametable
indices to point at the actual physical tile numbers. The linker
copies each background's `chr_bytes` into CHR ROM at
`chr_base_tile * 16`, so the final image renders without any
user-supplied CHR.
`BackgroundData` carries `chr_bytes` and `chr_base_tile` so the
linker has everything it needs at a glance. Inline `tiles:` /
`attributes:` declarations leave them empty and behave exactly
like before — that path doesn't auto-generate CHR because the
user is implicitly opting into "I'll provide tiles myself" by
typing the indices out by hand.
The new `examples/auto_chr_background.ne` is a 256×240 grayscale
gradient committed alongside its `auto_chr_bg.png` source; the
emulator harness verifies the rendered output against a
committed golden so a regression in the dedupe/encode/linker
plumbing fails CI loudly. Existing example ROMs are byte-
identical because their backgrounds either have no PNG source or
already provided their own CHR.
