Perps engine v1

Every launched coin creates a Perps Pool - smart contracts that hold reserve tokens and manage long/short.

The pool tracks three things:

ComponentDescription
ReserveTotal tokens held by the pool
Long payoffCurrent value of the long side
Short payoffCurrent value of the short side

Solvency Invariant

At all times: Long payoff + Short payoff + Liquidity = Reserve

The pool is always fully backed. Every token owed to longs, shorts, and LPs is in the vault.
