fix: skill catch — auto-throw at 5%, session file fallback to active.json

- wounded encounters (5% strength) skip weakening Q&A and go straight
  to the throw — no more 'want to throw?' prompt at 5%
- catch roll now tries sessions/<pgrp>.json first, falls back to
  active.json if missing (fixes FileNotFoundError in new windows that
  haven't run any tools yet)
- XP write follows the same fallback pattern
