motors: name anchors after the machine, not their position in the file

-Add a new machine by subclassing an existing `motors/motor*.py` file instead of editing an existing class in place, so old results stay reproducible.
+### Anchors — machines are named, not numbered
+
+An **anchor** is a named machine definition: everything needed to instantiate and solve one physical machine — class, slots, phases, winding (turns, `Rs`), end-winding `Lew`, **rotor radii**, geometry generator + parameter bounds, FEA template.
+
+The name carries only what the anchor fixes for good — machine class, phases, slot count. Values that are routinely swept (turns, currents, bus voltage) stay out of it, so a name never goes stale.
+
+One anchor per module in `motors/`, named `<class>_<phases>f_<slots>s`:
+
+| module | machine |
+|---|---|
+| `motors/synrm_3f_36s.py` | 3-phase SynRM, 36 stator slots |
+| `motors/synrm_5f_40s.py` | 5-phase SynRM, 40 stator slots, dq1+dq3 excitation |
+
+Each exports `Geometry` and `Computation`, so the module name carries the identity and the class names stay uniform — `from motors.synrm_5f_40s import Geometry, Computation` says which machine you are solving, where `Geometry2` did not.
+
+- **Derive, don't fork.** To study a variant (add magnets, change turns), subclass an existing anchor and override only what differs — do **not** edit an anchor's class in place, so old results stay reproducible. A genuinely new machine is a new anchor module.
+- **An anchor must declare all of the above**, rotor radii included. They are the radial window the barrier generators draw into; an anchor that does not set them cannot have a rotor built for it.
