test: add unit tests for alias, alias resolution, and msg commands (#28)

## Summary
- Add 29 new unit tests covering three features that had zero test
coverage
- All tests run locally without tmux or Docker (part of `make test`)

### Alias command tests (17 tests)
- Empty state listing, argument validation for set/rm
- Name validation: rejects spaces and special chars, accepts hyphens and
underscores
- Full CRUD lifecycle: set, list, overwrite, remove
- Persistence verified directly via yq against `~/.crabcode/config.yaml`
- Unknown subcommand error handling

### Alias resolution tests (2 tests)
- Verifies `crab <alias>` resolves to the target command at runtime
- Single-word and multi-word alias resolution

### Msg command tests (10 tests)
- Help output and no-args behavior
- Status display without active relay
- Text-to-speech toggle (on/off) and state reflection
- Unknown subcommand handling
- Graceful degradation for read/history without relay

## Test plan
- [x] `make test` — all 29 new tests pass
- [x] Pre-existing failures (14) confirmed unchanged via `git stash`
comparison
- [x] Tests clean up after themselves (backup/restore global config,
remove test aliases)

```
Results: 40 passed, 14 failed (54 total)
# Before this PR: 11 passed, 14 failed (25 total)
# Net: +29 passing tests, 0 new failures
