correlator: address #116 review — call talkgroup id in the prompt, sort candidates

drb-correlation-review: ship, with two bounds the low-bar link rule needs.

1. _call_block emitted only the talkgroup NAME while _inc_summary emits
   numeric tg ids, so the "same talkgroup" precondition in _RULES was
   unevaluable and the low link bar applied unconditionally. _call_block now
   prints "Talkgroup: <name> (id <n>)".
2. ctx["recent"] is an unordered Firestore slice with no order_by; a busy 2h
   window (~40 active incidents) showed the model an arbitrary half of the
   candidates. _prompt_incidents() sorts by updated_at desc before the [:20]
   cap — also makes each row's idle: field monotonic.

+2 tests. Full c2-core suite green (sandboxed venv).

Review follow-ups (not blockers): _parse_response demotes an unresolvable
link to orphan (drops the call) rather than falling back to rules — now on
rising link volume; the 45% tiebreak escalation rate / smart-model cost is
untouched; _ROAD_RE swallows leading tokens so "10 Parker Street" still
won't road-overlap "Parker St".

+  the same street is the same place), the same subject/vehicle/case number, or a

+  number 214-201", a status update) to an incident that is only a few minutes
+  idle. The bar for "link" on the same talkgroup is LOW.
+- Reserve "new" for a call that clearly describes a DIFFERENT event from every
+  recent incident — a different place, different units, and a different subject,
+  not merely a different transmission about the same job.
+- "orphan" a call that is not an incident at all: radio checks, roll call,
+  a unit marking on/off duty or 10-8/10-98, mileage/log entries, a bare
+  acknowledgement. Do not open a "new" incident for these.
