Derive Pot's M/C from pot/grain/water mass instead of hardcoding them

Add Sud.derive_plant_params(), which combines pot_mass/pot_material/
grain_mass/water_mass into a single lumped (mass, specific heat) pair
using approximate specific-heat constants for water, grain, and (by a
small material lookup table) the pot itself. demo_sud.py now builds
its plant_params from this instead of hardcoded C/M values, keeping
L/Td as the only manually-tuned plant parameters.
