Add sync-ea-inputs: durable fix for the chart-cache persistence bug

Root cause: MT5 actually reads live EA inputs from
MQL5/Profiles/Charts/Default/chartNN.chr at boot, not from the .set
presets -- and it never rewrites that file on container shutdown
(files were found frozen at their Aug 6 mtimes through every restart
since, including graceful ones with stop_grace_period). This is why
the XAUUSD spread-filter fix (Jul 30) and the Monday A/B reversion
(Aug 10) both kept reverting after restarts.

sync-ea-inputs.sh (+ .py) runs on every container boot via
custom-cont-init.d, before MT5 launches, and writes each chart's
matching bo-*.set values directly into its .chr cache -- bypassing
MT5's broken save-on-exit path entirely. Validated with a real
corrupt-then-restart-then-verify cycle (see vault note).

Deployed copy lives at ~/mt5-docker/custom-cont-init.d/ (mt5-docker
is not a git repo); this is the tracked source, kept in sync with the
deployed version by hand like the other scripts here (e.g.
export-history.sh).

+"""Syncs authoritative bo-*.set preset values into MT5's actual live-session
+cache files (MQL5/Profiles/Charts/Default/chartNN.chr).
+
+Root cause (found 2026-08-10): MT5's "save chart state on graceful exit"
+never actually fires under this Wine/container setup -- chartNN.chr files
+were found frozen at their 2026-08-06 23:26 mtimes despite many later
+restarts, including ones using the documented `stop_grace_period: 60s` +
+`docker compose down` "graceful" path. Every restart since Aug 6 silently
+reloads that one frozen snapshot, which is why a live GUI input edit
+(Properties/F7 -> OK) reverts after the next restart no matter how
+"gracefully" the container is stopped. This hit the XAUUSD spread filter
+(Jul 30, Aug 6/7) and the Monday A/B reversion (Aug 10) alike -- general,
+not symbol-specific.
+
+Fix: don't rely on MT5 ever writing this file correctly. Treat the
+bo-*.set files (repo + Presets/) as the single source of truth and write
+them directly into chartNN.chr ourselves, every boot. chartNN.chr uses
+the exact same `Key=Value` input names as the .set files (verified), just
+UTF-16LE with a BOM and CRLF instead of the .set files' UTF-8/LF -- and
+one chart file per open chart, auto-mapped here via each file's own
+`symbol=` line rather than a hardcoded chart-number list, so this keeps
+working if charts are ever reordered.
+
+Idempotent -- safe to run any time, not just at boot.
