Knockback with weight, exponential decay and stun

Add knockback from hits divided by weight, fade it with exponential friction, and stun in proportion to the hit strength with a cap, so heavy enemies barely move and light ones fly.

Limits to consider

Owner-driven: it computes a velocity to add and does not move anything. 2D vectors. The stun is a timer only; animations and AI pauses are up to the owner. Verified with Godot 4.7.2 headless; written against the Godot 4.3 API.
