v0.14.4 - Sort buff loop by cost (cheapest-first when no channeling)

- Regular buff loop in all 3 tiers now collects candidates then sorts
  by MP cost ascending (cheapest first) when no channeling, or
  descending (most expensive first) when channeling is active
- Previously just iterated BUFF_PRIORITY declaration order (Haste →
  Spark → Heartseeker → Regen → Absorb → Shadow Veil) which wasn't
  cost-ordered
- _reason now shows 'buff' (cheapest first) or 'chBuff' (most expensive)
