Biserial representables from pointwise thinness #

This file packages the variance-neutral finite-category step in the frozen manuscript. Pointwise thinness of every indecomposable finite module is transported to canonical idempotent-coordinate thinness for a small category algebra; the direct biserial induction then applies to each representable.

On a finite linear category with local endomorphism rings, pointwise thinness of all indecomposable finite modules makes every covariant representable intrinsically biserial.
