Subject: [PATCH] event_loop: wire F-key screen switching with ScreenView

Create overlay screens vec (ConsciousScreen, SubconsciousScreen,
UnconsciousScreen, ThalamusScreen). F-keys switch active_screen.
Screen tick() called during render phase with pending key event.
Screen actions (Switch, Hotkey) applied after draw.

Interact (F1) still draws via App::draw_main(). Overlay screens
draw via ScreenView::tick(). State persists across switches.
