janik 666abaa50f Populated THT holes conduct in-plane as their solder plug + lead
The mouth of a populated THT pad kept only foil copper on every layer:
on the component side and inner layers the joint looked (and conducted)
like plain plane, and current had to crowd through the single barrel
attachment cell. The filled hole - lead cylinder plus solder bore - now
adds conduction-equivalent copper of the full hole depth on EVERY
spanned layer (the pin continues beyond both mouths, so each layer sees
the whole plug cross-section). Side to side the joint differs only by
the solder: coat and cone stay on the protrusion side.

Cone and plug contributions accumulate ADDITIVELY (stack.t_extra_nm)
and fold into thick_scale once; multiplying the factors would overstate
mouth cells carrying both. The raster map draws filled mouths in a
darker tin with their own legend entry.
