fix(parser+admin+voice): KI-161 + KI-164 + KI-165 bundle

KI-161 — _parse_inr_amount no longer interprets bare digits below ₹1000
as currency, and rejects any text with age context ("29 years old",
"age 25", "I am 35"). Origin: user answered the age question with
"I am 29 years old" and the parser wrote ₹29 into both budget_band
and income_band. 10/10 test cases pass (bare-age + real-budget).

KI-164 — LLM Chain admin tab radically stripped to ONLY the two simple
tables. Removed: Candidate health grid (8 cols × N rows of retired
models), Recent turns table, Health snapshot card with counters,
chains-grid legacy. Restructured "What's Available" Table 2 with
per-role columns (Brain Fast / Brain Main / Judge) instead of
free-form "Used By" text. refreshChain() now only feeds the
2-table renderer; the legacy fetch* + render* funcs are dead but
intentionally left in place (their target elements no longer exist
so they're never called).

KI-165 — Voice/text crossfire fixed.
- useLiveConversation.ts: minVoicedFrames=8 floor (~130ms),
voicedFramesRef tracker, endSpeechCapture + tearDown guards
that discard near-empty captures + captures while text is
in flight. Logs `[live-mode] discarded near-empty capture
(KI-165)` and `[live-mode] discarded capture: text request
in flight (KI-165)` for browser-console verification.
- page.tsx: isTextRequestPendingRef set in send(), cleared in
finally — voice hook checks this ref before submitting.
Real speech (≥8 voiced frames) still flows unchanged. PTT path
untouched. Notification dings, Mac screenshot clicks, and other
ambient sub-130ms triggers no longer submit empty captures.
