feat: Integrate Color-Pattern Theory across documentation

Integrates the newly developed Color-Pattern Theory into the Nimmerverse documentation suite. This theory establishes color and form as an ancient, efficient communication protocol for ecosystem-wide state broadcasting, inspired by biological evolution.

Key changes include:
- **Endgame-Vision.md**: Updated to reflect the new communication protocol hierarchy.
- **README.md**: Added Color-Pattern Theory to core concepts for quick overview.
- **architecture/Cellular-Architecture.md**: Explains how cell states are broadcast visually using colors and forms.
- **archive/nimmerversity.md**: Added 'Evolutionary Signaling & Visual Semiotics' as a new domain in the curriculum.
- **operations/Spark-Protocol.md**: Integrated learning of visual patterns into the environment discovery phase of the cognitive bootstrap.
- **archive/nimmerverse-critique-and-analysis-2025-12-13.md**: Added a comprehensive critique and analysis of the Nimmerverse project.

This update ensures the theory is consistently reflected across the project's vision, architecture, educational framework, and operational protocols.

+### Communication Protocol Hierarchy
+
+Language is just one protocol. The Nimmerverse uses a tiered communication stack, prioritizing protocols that are faster and more evolutionarily battle-tested. We don't just invent; we remember what nature has already optimized.
+
+| Protocol | Latency | Bandwidth | Primary Use |
+|--------------|-----------|-----------|-------------------------------------|
+| **Language/Text** | ~1000ms | Very High | High-level reasoning, human partnership, synthesis |
+| **Sound/Call** | ~200ms | Medium | Simple alerts, environmental cues |
+| **Color/Form** | ~50ms | High | Instant state broadcast (danger, success, seeking) |
+| **Memristor Pattern**| ~1μs | Hardware | Sub-symbolic pattern matching, reflex arcs |
