Case contract

Kelly staking. With b = price - 1, p = prob and q = 1 - p, the full Kelly fraction is (b * p - q) / b, floored at 0 when the edge is not positive. The stake is bankroll * min(full Kelly * fraction, max_pct / 100), rounded down to a cent. Return [full Kelly fraction rounded half up to four decimals as a string, stake cents].

Why this case matters

Bankroll tools size stakes with fractional Kelly and a hard cap.
