Case contract

Input [knocker_deadwood_cards, defender_deadwood_after_layoffs, gin, big_gin]. Deadwood: A=1, T/J/Q/K=10, others pip. Knocking above 10 is ["illegal", 0]. Big gin scores 31 + defender deadwood, gin 25 + defender deadwood (gin cannot be undercut). Otherwise if defender deadwood <= knocker deadwood the defender undercuts for 25 + difference; else knocker scores the difference.
