🌊 River Meander Migration — 2D Plan View, Sinuosity and Oxbow Cutoffs

2D plan-view companion of the river meander migration sim: a curvature-driven bank-erosion model on a sine-generated channel, with sinuosity history, curvature profile, neck cutoffs that leave oxbow lakes and an exact Bessel-function sinuosity check.
