Add player fall mechanic after successful tackles

When a player is successfully tackled, they now experience a realistic fall animation:
- Immediately decelerate to 0 velocity
- Stay down for 500ms (configurable via TACKLE_FALL_DURATION)
- Resume normal movement after recovery period

Changes:
- Added TACKLE_FALL_DURATION constant (500ms)
- Added fall state tracking to Player class (isFallen, fallRecoveryTime)
- Implemented fall() method to trigger the fall state
- Updated update() to handle fallen state and prevent movement during recovery
- Modified executeTackle() to call fall() instead of just reducing velocity
