-- Builds tables of hero base stats that scale with a given scaling type,
-- read from [[Data:HeroData.json]].
--
-- Each public function below renders one table. The shared work lives in
-- build_scaling_table(), so adding a table for another scaling type (Boons,
-- for instance) only takes a new wrapper naming its data key and caption.
