Heaven's Drive vs high-MDEF target — verify MDEF behavior

Heaven's Drive is an Earth-element AoE that hits ground tiles. This scenario establishes whether (in our implementation) Heaven's Drive respects hard/soft MDEF normally or has a special defIgnore. Run against a Sage-class target with high MDEF.

Critical assertion: breakdown should show BOTH hardMDEFSubtracted and softMDEFSubtracted are non-zero. Sages have very high soft MDEF from INT — if your library only subtracts hardMDEF and forgets soft MDEF, the damage will be much too high here. This scenario is intentionally targeted to catch that bug.
