UPG-100 packet page 1 is the full UPG-100 poster: the letter sheet with its title, scripture banner, three-column header and footer, generated at the click

generateSheet gains `sparse` (default: every format but 'packet', so every existing caller is unchanged);
the UPG-100 zone sheet answers the packet's 'packet' request with the full letter poster, the same
1500x1941 page. check:poster-browser-equiv compares that sheet with Node's letter format without SPARSE.
