REGRESSION - NEW FEATURE - Fixed-Q probe of the SLAYER inner-layer Δ(Q)

The AMR scan's Δ(Q) samples in gpec.h5 cannot carry golden values: adaptive sample
locations move under any refinement change, so they have no stable identity to pin.
This computed case pins the dispersion curve itself instead — Δ(Q) on a fixed 4×4
grid over Re(Q), Im(Q) ∈ [-10, 10], sixteen refinement-stable complex values.

The layer parameters are the DIII-D-like SLAYER deck's own 2/1-surface values
(extracted from Tearing/PerSurface of a deck run and quoted verbatim), so the case is
self-contained and probes the solver alone; the parameter chain that produces those
inputs is pinned separately by diiid_slayer_n1. Runs in ~1 s — fast-tier eligible
alongside the GGJ references.

All sixteen Δ values are finite across the grid, |Δ| spanning 0.21 to 1.52.
