When enabled, the sticky boss banner shows the next boss's team size as a hint for players who voluntarily match the boss's party count. Handles variant boss teams by using the auto-detected starter variant. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

When enabled, hint to the player that they should limit their active party to the same number of Pokemon as the next boss fight. This is a self-imposed difficulty rule — the tracker cannot enforce it since it doesn't track the active party, but it can surface the information.
Design
Rule: Add bossTeamMatch: boolean to NuzlockeRules (default: false, category: playstyle).
Display: When enabled and the sticky boss banner is shown, add a hint next to the boss name showing their team size, e.g. "Next: Brock (2 Pokemon — match their team)". This reuses the existing nextBoss and its pokemon array.
Variant bosses: Some bosses have conditional teams (e.g. rival starter choice). Use the same logic as BossTeamPreview: count pokemon without a conditionLabel plus those matching the auto-detected variant (via matchVariant). Falls back to first variant if no match is detected.
Scope: Frontend-only. No backend or data model changes needed.
