 * Demo-mode auto-reply rules: "if you hear X, answer Y".

 * Matching is normalized — uppercased, with spaces and punctuation stripped —
 * so a rule typed as "U OK?" still fires on a decoded "U OK" or "UOK". Antenna
 * Morse won't reliably carry punctuation, so we never require an exact match.
 *
 * Pure module (no DOM/audio) so the matching logic is unit-tested directly.
