b93eedf00e feat(services): add power-profile-weighted window selection
Add `include_current_interval` parameter to `find_cheapest_block` and
`find_cheapest_schedule` services, controlling whether the currently
active price interval can be the start of the selected window.

Add power-profile weighting to `find_cheapest_contiguous_window`: accepts
an optional `power_profile` list that weights each interval's price by
relative power draw (e.g. heat-up phase heavier than steady state). Without
a profile the behaviour is unchanged (uniform weighting).

Extend search-range tests and add price-window unit tests covering weighted
and unweighted scenarios, edge cases, and sequential scheduling interactions.
Update scheduling-actions documentation with parameter and profile examples.

Impact: Users can now model appliances with non-uniform power draw (e.g. heat
pumps, washing machines) to find truly cheapest windows based on actual energy
cost rather than average price.

31fca73ccd feat(services): add sequential parameter to find_cheapest_schedule
When sequential: true, tasks are placed in declaration order instead of
being sorted by duration. Each task's search window starts after the
previous task ends (plus gap_minutes). If a task cannot be placed, all
subsequent tasks in the chain are also marked unscheduled.

Adds 12 tests covering ordering, chaining, gap enforcement, and
chain-breaking behavior.

Impact: Users can now schedule dependent appliances (e.g., washing
machine → dryer) in a single find_cheapest_schedule call with guaranteed
order, instead of chaining two find_cheapest_block calls.
