Test Violet's counters in a full draft

Start with Violet on Amber, add both line-ups, and see how the complete draft changes the calibrated win probability.

Violet is a new hero: the draft model hasn't been trained on Violet's matches yet, so it can't score a draft that includes Violet. Drafting opens after the next retrain.
