feat(sim-control): add fail-closed intent parser for frequency-driven sim setup

Roadmap item "frequency-sim-control": pilot speaks a self-service
sim setup command on frequency ("set me up for an approach from 5000
ft to EDDF 07R", "change my altitude to 8000"). Rule-based, not an
LLM call per transmission — a misparsed command changes the user's
real sim state, and it must never be confused with real ATC
phraseology routed through sttMatch.ts.

parseSimControl() gates on explicit self-service anchors first
("set me up", "put me", "change/set my <param>"); anything without
one of those anchors returns no_intent, so regular readbacks and
clearances can never be misrouted. Matched intents still refuse on
any ambiguous slot (missing unit, out-of-range, invalid runway) with
a typed reason instead of guessing.

Parameter vocabulary follows NormalizedTelemetry (altitude_ft,
ias_kts, heading_deg) since the command travels toward the bridge/sim,
not the decision engine's DecisionNodeAutoTrigger vocabulary.

Design doc covers the still-missing server→bridge write channel
(piggyback on the existing telemetry POST response) — not
implemented yet, this commit is the parser only.

// Frequency-driven simulator control (roadmap key `frequency-sim-control`).
//
// Parses free-form SIM SETUP commands the pilot speaks on frequency ("set me
// up for an approach from 5000 ft to EDDF 07R", "change my altitude to 8000")
// into structured commands for the bridge. These are meta commands from the
// user to their OWN simulator instance — deliberately a different grammar from
// ICAO readback phraseology (which runs through sttMatch.ts) so an ordinary
// ATC readback can never be mistaken for a sim command.
//
// Fail-closed by design: anything ambiguous returns { matched: false } with a
// reason instead of a best-effort guess — a misparsed command changes the
// user's real sim state. Parameter names follow the NormalizedTelemetry
// convention (useRadioBackend.ts): the command travels toward the bridge/sim,
// so it speaks the sim-side vocabulary (altitude_ft, ias_kts, heading_deg).
