fix(reference): Death Events remember a right-hand neighbour, not a board index

A Deathrattle summon used the dying minion's board index from before the
Death Creation Step removed anything. That index is stale when a minion to
its left dies in the same step, so the token landed one place too far right.

Each Death Event now records `before`: the nearest minion to the right that
is not dying in the same step. The position handed to the effect context is
resolved when the trigger resolves: the current index of `before`, or the
right end. Applied to the Rust and TS references of Modules 3-10.

Module 3 gains two tests, documented in scenarios.md:
test_03_summon_position_after_simultaneous_deaths (fails before the fix) and
test_03_simultaneous_summons_keep_board_order.
