* simplex-chat-python: split Client from Bot, add request/response API
Client is now the base class for SimpleX participants that talk TO
services (monitors, probes, automated participants). Bot extends Client
with server features (address, auto-accept, welcome, commands).
New methods on Client (inherited by Bot):
connect_to(link) idempotent contact handshake
send_and_wait(id, text) send a message and await the reply
events() async iterator over chat events
@on_message(contact_id=N) filter by sender in decorators
BotProfile renamed to Profile (alias kept). New ContactAlreadyExistsError
subclass for cleaner error handling.
* simplex-chat-python: narrow event payload type per @on_event tag
@client.on_event("contactConnected") now types the handler's event
parameter as CEvt.ContactConnected instead of the unnarrowed
CEvt.ChatEvent union — mirroring how @on_message narrows by
content_type.
The 50 overloads are generated by the Haskell codegen into _events.py
(as a Protocol class), so new events stay in sync automatically.
Client.on_event is exposed as a property typed as that Protocol; the
runtime implementation is unchanged.

* bots: regenerate API docs and types
Catches up the markdown, TypeScript and Python codegen outputs with two
upstream schema changes:
- APIConnectPlan.connectionLink became optional (from sh/python-lib audit
fixes); cmdString and EBNF syntax now reflect optional parameter.
- APIAddGroupRelays command and CRGroupRelaysAdded/CRGroupRelaysAddFailed
responses added in #6917 (relay management). The TS and markdown outputs
were regenerated when #6917 landed but the Python types module only got
the new entries with this regeneration.
* core: refresh SQLite query plans after relay_inactive_at migration
The M20260507_relay_inactive_at migration (#6917 / #6952) shifted the
query plans that 'Save query plans' verifies. Regenerated via the test
that owns those snapshots; no behavioral change.
* bots: keep APIConnectPlan connectionLink as required parameter
The prior audit-fixes commit changed the syntax expression to `Optional ...`
because the Haskell field is `connectionLink :: Maybe AConnectionLink`.
That misrepresents the API contract: the `Maybe` is purely an internal
signal for link-parsing failure (the handler returns `CEInvalidConnReq`
on `Nothing`), not API-level optionality. Callers MUST always pass a
connection link.
Revert the syntax expression to `Param "connectionLink"` and add a
comment so the intent is preserved next time someone audits.
Regenerates COMMANDS.md, commands.ts and _commands.py to match.
