🧪 Simulation Accuracy Evaluator — 2D Euler vs RK4 Pendulum and Energy Drift

2D companion of the simulation accuracy evaluator: a nonlinear pendulum integrated by explicit Euler and RK4 side by side against a fine-step reference, with live energy drift, log angle error, the exact Euler growth factor and a convergence-order check.
