coloring_nested_tire_graphs: actually apply the title + tire definition edits

The previous rename commit (6ca0c6d) staged the unmodified paper.tex
content because `git mv` + `git add` picked up the on-disk file as it
was at HEAD, not the unstaged working-tree edits.  This commit applies
what 6ca0c6d's message claimed:

- Title: "Nested Level Duals" → "Coloring Nested Tire Graphs"
- Adds Definition 1.5 (Tire graph) formalising (C_out, O, E_ann) with
  the annular-triangulation condition, plus a Remark on vertex/edge/
  face counts.
- Removes the 2026-05-22 "shelved" note.

\label{def:tire-graph}
Let $C_{\mathrm{out}}$ be a simple cycle of length $m \geq 3$, and let
$O$ be an outerplanar graph whose outer-face boundary $C_{\mathrm{in}}$
is a simple cycle of length $k \geq 3$, with $V(C_{\mathrm{out}}) \cap
V(O) = \emptyset$. A \emph{tire graph} on $(C_{\mathrm{out}}, O)$ is a
plane graph $T$ with
\[
V(T) = V(C_{\mathrm{out}}) \cup V(O),
\qquad
E(T) = E(C_{\mathrm{out}}) \cup E(O) \cup E_{\mathrm{ann}},
\]
where $E_{\mathrm{ann}}$ is a set of edges --- the \emph{annular edges}
--- such that, in the plane embedding of $T$, the closed annulus with
outer boundary $C_{\mathrm{out}}$ and inner boundary $C_{\mathrm{in}}$
is partitioned into triangular faces. Equivalently, the bounded faces
of $T$ that are not faces of $O$ are all triangles, and together they
tile the annular region between $C_{\mathrm{out}}$ and $C_{\mathrm{in}}$.
% NOTE (2026-05-22): This paper is being shelved in favour of an alternative We call $C_{\mathrm{out}}$ the \emph{outer cycle}, $O$ the \emph{inner
% approach. The nested-level-duals framing is preserved here for reference but outerplanar graph}, and $C_{\mathrm{in}}$ the \emph{inner cycle} of
% is not being actively developed. $T$. When $O = C_{\mathrm{in}}$ (the inner outerplanar graph has no
chords), $T$ is a tire graph \emph{with empty inner}; in general $O$
contributes only chords inside the disk bounded by $C_{\mathrm{in}}$
and does not interact with $E_{\mathrm{ann}}$.
\end{definition}
\begin{remark}
A tire graph on $(C_{\mathrm{out}}, O)$ has $|V(C_{\mathrm{out}})| +
|V(O)| = m + k$ vertices, exactly $m + k$ annular triangles
in the annulus between $C_{\mathrm{out}}$ and $C_{\mathrm{in}}$ (by
Euler's formula on the annulus), and exactly $m + k$ annular edges
in $E_{\mathrm{ann}}$, of which the $m + k$ triangles share their
three edges with the boundaries $E(C_{\mathrm{out}}) \cup
E(C_{\mathrm{in}})$ and with each other.
\end{remark}
