Arne Moor 69608fd305 feat: add telegram provider with CLI integration
Add Telegram as a third messaging provider alongside web and twilio.

Core Features:
- Interactive login flow with phone/SMS/2FA authentication
- Send text and media messages (images, videos, audio, documents)
- Monitor incoming messages with auto-reply support
- Session management at ~/.clawdis/telegram/session/
- Full CLI integration (login, logout, status, send, relay commands)

Implementation Details:
- Uses telegram npm package for MTProto API access
- Supports both URL and local file media sending
- Cross-platform path handling (Windows/Unix)
- Optional Twilio env vars (supports Telegram-only usage)
- Minimal provider abstraction pattern
- Comprehensive test coverage (440 tests passing)

Changes:
- Add Telegram module (client, login, monitor, inbound, outbound, session)
- Add provider factory and base interfaces
- Wire Telegram functions into CLI deps
- Update env validation to make Twilio fields optional
- Add telegram to all CLI commands (login, logout, status, send, relay)
- Add null checks in Twilio code for optional env fields
- Fix send command to properly load session and connect
- Add local file support with cross-platform path handling
- Update login message to show correct ~/.clawdis path
- Add comprehensive tests and documentation

Basic Usage:
  warelay login --provider telegram
  warelay send --provider telegram --to "@user" --message "Hi"
  warelay send --provider telegram --to "@user" --media "/path/to/file.jpg"
  warelay relay --provider telegram

All tests pass (63 files, 440 tests). Zero TypeScript errors.
