fix: sidechain CC11 — pass kick_cache to build_bass_track + absolute position projection

Root cause: build_bass_track() never received the kick_cache in main().
Second issue: kick times were WAV-relative (0-12 beats) but bass expects
absolute positions (16+ beats). Added loop-duration projection to convert
relative → absolute positions across clip duration.

285 CC11 events now generated in output. 302/302 tests pass.
