MVP proof: a real, recognizable program ported to EML

# Ported from Python-World/python-mini-projects (projects/Tic_tac_toe,
# MIT-licensed) as a "real, recognizable program" MVP proof for EML —
# not a new language-feature test, but a demonstration that a genuine
# small program can be expressed end to end. The original is interactive
# (input()); this port replaces that with a fixed, scripted move sequence
# (including one deliberately invalid move) so the whole program is
# deterministic and verifiable against real Python (see tic_tac_toe.trace.jsonl,
# generated by `eml trace --run`).
