When a nuzlocke run is completed (status → completed), prompt the player to select which Pokemon were in their Hall of Fame team — the party of up to 6 that beat the Elite Four and Champion.

This is a general nuzlocke feature (not genlocke-specific) and provides value on its own:

• Interesting stats: which Pokemon enter the HoF most often across runs
• Run summary: display the HoF team prominently on the completed run page
• Foundation for genlocke retireHoF logic (only retire HoF team, not all alive Pokemon)

Behavior

• After marking a run as completed, show a modal/step asking the player to pick their HoF team from all alive Pokemon
• Max 6 Pokemon can be selected
• Store the selection as a list of encounter IDs on the run (or a join table)
• The HoF team should be displayed prominently on the completed run page (e.g. in the victory banner)
• Selection is optional — if skipped, all alive Pokemon are assumed to be in the HoF (backwards-compatible)

Backend

• Add hof_team JSONB column (array of encounter IDs) to nuzlocke_runs, or a hof_encounters join table
• New endpoint or extend PATCH /runs/{id} to accept HoF team selection
• Include HoF team data in GET /runs/{id} response

Frontend

• After the EndRunModal confirms "completed", show a HoF team selection step
• Display alive Pokemon as selectable cards (max 6)
• Show the selected HoF team in the victory banner on the completed run page
• Allow editing the HoF team after the fact (in case the player forgot or made a mistake)

Checklist

• Add hof_encounter_ids JSONB column to nuzlocke_runs (nullable array of ints)
• Migration for the new column
• Update RunResponse / RunDetailResponse schemas to include hofEncounterIds
• Extend PATCH /runs/{id} to accept hofEncounterIds (validate they belong to the run and are alive)
• Build HoF team selection modal (shown after completing a run)
• Display HoF team in the victory banner on completed run pages
• Allow editing HoF team selection on completed runs
