3501194083 fix(chat): /help client-side handler + System dedup + ThatIsNotAValidCommand template
Phase J follow-up after a 2026-04-25 trace where typing /help
produced two identical "Unknown command: help" lines (ACE fires the
text via both GameMessageSystemChat 0xF7E0 and a paired
CommunicationTransientString 0x02EB), and the server's WeenieError
0x0026 trailer rendered cryptically as "WeenieError 0x0026".

Three small changes:

1. WeenieErrorMessages: add 0x0026 ThatIsNotAValidCommand ->
   "That is not a valid command." Plus 0x0414 / 0x050F that Phase J
   already added are now covered by tests too.

2. ChatLog.OnSystemMessage dedup. Track last system text + arrival
   time; if a second identical text shows up within 1 second,
   suppress. ACE's two-path send (gag warnings, command errors,
   etc.) collapses to a single chat line. Long bursts of repeated
   text still skip the duplicates without resetting the timer.

3. Client-side /help and /clear in ChatPanel. Intercepted BEFORE
   the parser passes to the server bus:
   - /help, /?, /h (case-insensitive) -> render local cheat-sheet
     listing acdream's slash prefixes via ChatLog.OnSystemMessage.
     Avoids the round-trip to ACE that produced the duplicate
     "Unknown command: help" lines AND gives users discoverability.
   - /clear, /cls -> drains the chat log so the panel starts empty.

   New ChatVM.ShowSystemMessage() + ChatVM.Clear() expose the
   minimum surface the panel needs to dispatch client-only feedback
   without coupling the panel to ChatLog directly.

12 new tests:
- 3 WeenieErrorMessages template adds (0x0026 / 0x0414 / 0x050F).
- 4 ChatLog dedup cases (immediate dup, different text, triplet,
  bookended-by-different-text).
- 5 ChatPanel client-command cases (/help, 3 alias variants,
  /clear).

Solution total: 1033 green (243 Core.Net + 130 UI + 660 Core),
0 warnings.

Acceptance: type /help in chat -> local help banner appears, no
server round-trip, no "Unknown command: help" duplicates. Type
/clear -> chat tail empty. Welcome banner + WeenieError-templated
"You are not in an allegiance!" / "You do not belong to a
Fellowship." continue rendering once each.

f14296c75f feat(ui): #17 ChatPanel input field + slash commands + reply-to-last-tell
ChatPanel gains an Enter-to-submit input field via the I.1
InputTextSubmit widget. Submitted text routes through ChatInputParser
to a SendChatCmd published on ctx.Commands; LiveCommandBus (I.3)
handles the wire send + ChatLog echo.

Recognised prefixes (ported from holtburger commands.rs):

  /say msg or no prefix  -> Say
  /t Name msg or /tell   -> Tell  (first whitespace token = target)
  /r msg                 -> Tell  (target = LastIncomingTellSender)
  /g msg                 -> General
  /f msg                 -> Fellowship
  /a msg                 -> Allegiance
  /m msg                 -> Monarch
  /p msg                 -> Patron
  /v msg                 -> Vassals
  /cv msg                -> CoVassals
  /lfg msg               -> Lfg
  /trade msg             -> Trade
  /role msg              -> Roleplay
  /society msg           -> Society
  /olthoi msg            -> Olthoi

Edge cases: empty / whitespace / cmd-without-message / /r without
prior tell -> null (no-op). Unknown /xyz prefix -> Say with literal
text (matches holtburger's Talk(command) default arm).

ChatVM.LastIncomingTellSender populated only on incoming Tell entries;
discriminated by SenderGuid != 0 (OnSelfSent echoes always carry 0).

32 new tests:
- ChatInputParserTests: 22 covering every prefix + edge case
- ChatVMLastTellSenderTests: 6 covering capture + skip rules
- ChatPanelInputTests: 6 using FakePanelRenderer + recording
  ICommandBus to assert publish behaviour

UI.Abstractions.Tests: 60 -> 92. Solution total: 934 green.
