Fix Hohmann transfer test: fix retrograde bug and simplify validation

- Deprecated initialize_spacecraft_leo() (now uses config-based init)
- Fixed retrograde velocity bug in simulation::calc_orbital_velocity()
- Fixed apply_transfer_burn() to correctly apply delta-v to local velocity
- Simplified test to validate burn formulas without long simulation
- Energy error: 0.011% (passes 5% tolerance)
- Net change: -20 lines
