Refactor participant score

[squadgazzz]

Description

Refactors the driver Participant struct's score field, which makes it non-optional by introducing new ranking types: Unscored and Scored, that also replace the Unranked type. The Ranked type now only contains participants with scores. One of the prerequisites for #4010 before extracting this logic into a separate crate.

Changes

• Unranked -> Unscored + Scored
• Participant's score is non-optional now
• No more panics/expectations

Pull request overview

This PR refactors the participant score management from an optional field on Solution to a mandatory part of the participant state, introducing a type-state pattern that tracks scoring status through the type system: Unscored → Scored → Ranked. This eliminates the need for runtime score validation (expects/panics) by making invalid states unrepresentable at compile time.

Key Changes:

• Introduced Scored state type containing a non-optional score, replacing the Unranked type
• Moved score from Solution to Participant state, making it type-safe
• Renamed Ranked enum to RankType and created a new Ranked state struct containing both rank type and score
