Serve live recommendation context on trade setup APIs and alerts

Stored TradeSetup rows are point-in-time snapshots from the RR scan, so
the ticker page could show stale confidence/reasoning/composite (e.g.
sentiment=neutral in the setup card while the sentiment panel showed
bullish). Overlay current score/sentiment context onto the API payload
for GET /trades and GET /trades/{symbol}, gate and format Telegram
qualified-setup alerts on the same live values, and apply the
min_confidence/recommended_action filters after the overlay so they
judge what the caller actually sees. Stored setups stay frozen for
outcome analysis and backtests.
