verification: implicit plasticity oracle cases and documentation

Four cases, each against its closed form: uniaxial tension of a J2 cube to a
logarithmic strain of 0.2 (Kirchhoff stress exact; 0.13 % from the explicit
solver's hypoelastic Cauchy stress, the elastic volume change between the two
laws), the Bauschinger effect of linear kinematic hardening on a load path
back to zero strain (exact), Hill's elastic-perfectly plastic thick cylinder
(bore displacement at a plastic radius of 1.5a within 0.009 %, collapse
pressure within 2e-8; the pending case is now active) and a cantilever's
plastic collapse, converged 3.1 % above beam theory's hinge, the bound a
continuum exceeds. docs/fem.md, the literature, ROADMAP (M15), parity and the
oracle page follow.
