Description

We need to add logic to resolveMatchedSurfaceConstructionConflicts so that we repeatably solve conflicts. We should default to either the floor or ceiling winning by default and some scheme for walls. Also, internal source constructions should win over regular constructions.

Research direction

Start at resolveMatchedSurfaceConstructionConflicts and trace its callers and the data representing floors, ceilings, walls, internal source constructions, and regular constructions. Define and document a deterministic priority scheme for each conflict category, then add or run the relevant conflict-resolution tests if the surrounding code identifies them. Done means repeated resolution produces the same result and follows the agreed priorities.
