Add to an overlay's tip goal

Adjusts the goal’s progress by amount (negative subtracts) WITHOUT creating a tip - it rides a separate manual-adjustment offset that the dashboard’s reset-progress clears. The on-screen goal updates live, and a crossing into the target fires any goal-hit celebration. Requires overlays:manage.
