WC2026 stat leaders (aggregated from our match stats)

Canonical-for-us tournament leaderboard, aggregated from our own per-fixture wc2026_player_match_stats (not the upstream topscorers blob behind /v1/wc2026/leaders). Sums each player across the tournament and supports a ?category sort, including minutes and matches which the blob route does not carry. Flat data[] shape: rank, player_name, team, goals, assists, minutes, matches. Returns { data: [], updated_at: null } before the first post-match ingest. 5-minute Redis cache.
