Steering, HUD course, auto-index checkpoints

- PlayerController: MovementSpeed 5->25, ajout turnDamping+idleDrag pour virages nets
- CheckpointSystem: auto-assign checkpointIndex depuis l'array, déclenche race HUD sur CP0
- GameHUD: course visible dès passage de la porte (CP0), timer local indépendant du serveur
