chemavxandClaude Opus 4.8 54fc8fa11a fix(news): strip GNews operator dashes and stop phantom query-budget counting
Two minor faults found during the GNews capture/prioritisation diagnostic:

1. Hyphens/dashes reached the GNews query verbatim. '-' is GNews's exclusion
   operator, so a token like "El-Sayed" returned HTTP 400 and wasted a query.
   _PUNCT_RE now strips '-', en dash and em dash to spaces.

2. The per-cycle GNews budget counter incremented in evaluate() before
   get_sentiment() checked the API key, so with no key configured the
   [CYCLE SUMMARY] reported a phantom "gnews_queries_used: 5/5" with zero real
   requests. Added NewsClient.enabled and gated the GNews block on it; with no
   key the counter stays 0/5 and no spurious SKIP_GNEWS_PRIORITY is logged.
   No behaviour change when a key is present.

Prioritisation itself was confirmed correct and is left untouched: politics
markets are sorted by gnews_priority DESC and prior-extreme markets return
before the budget is consumed, so no query is ever spent on a market that
cannot trade.

Tests: tests/test_news_query.py (4 new); full suite 66 passed.

"""Tests for the GNews layer minor fixes.
Two faults found during the GNews capture/prioritisation diagnostic:
1. Hyphens/dashes in a market question reached the GNews query verbatim and,
because '-' is GNews's exclusion operator, produced HTTP 400
(e.g. "Abdul El-Sayed Michigan Democratic Primary").
2. The per-cycle GNews budget counter incremented in evaluate() *before*
get_sentiment() checked the API key, so with no key configured the
[CYCLE SUMMARY] reported a phantom "gnews_queries_used: 5/5" even though
zero real requests left the process.
